RE: ThoughtfulDailyPost ~ Time To Think
I am glad you finally decided to jump on board as it were :)
This is a wonderful addition to my #thoughtfuldailypost initiative... being focused, thoughtful, mindful... one with ourselves and surroundings. This made me think of my younger days, when I would climb the roof of my Mother's house, lay flat, and look at the sky...
No One looks up anymore...
There is a certain fascination, of looking up at a clear night sky, and thinking, "are we really alone?"... of course, I can remember my teenage year's... experimenting with LSD and laying in a shallow creek while looking up... the feeling of floating, even though really... you weren't really floating. I digress :)
The purpose of this post is simply to encourage people to think. Especially children. Critical thinking is essential to becoming a well-rounded person who's free from group-think. Being a free, independent person depends on it.
Yes!! No Playstation... no Smart Phone... imagination!! Critical thinking indeed... Thank you for deciding to give my initiative a try... I am glad you did, and what a wonderful post...

Thank you for the wonderful comment Wes! And double thanks for encouraging people to think. It's always nice to meet other sky watchers. I had to smile when you mentioned your teenage years. The thing that always amazed me about psychedelics is how psychically connected I would become to others. We could read each other's mind. This would only happen with certain people, too.
