Thank you, Meerie. That was a very beautiful video.

I long for a time when we can put all our differences aside, and embrace each other as we are; accept each other exactly as we are. And find love. There will be no more conflicts, no more Creator against the Creator, but just oneness.

And that all Wanderers, just before they turn themselves and go home, wherever or whatever it might be, will turn one last time towards this planet and find their focus, so that she would know that she has been loved, despite all that has been.

First I didn't believe it, but it's true:

"Astronauts who have seen the Earth from space have often described the ‘overview effect’ as an experience that has transformed their perspective of the planet and mankind’s place upon it, and enabled them to perceive it as our shared home, without boundaries between nations or species.

OVERVIEW is a short film that will explore this perspective through interviews with astronauts who have experienced the overview effect. The film also features insights from commentators and thinkers on the wider implications and importance of this understanding for humanity as a whole, and especially its relevance to how we meet the tremendous challenges facing our planet at this time":

Wow! What an amazing video. They are talking about separation vs unity, and at one point even mention infinity! And these are scientists. Thanks to @ndy for sharing it!!

Beautiful thread, beautiful photos, beautiful clouds!

These kind of clouds are called Mother of Pearls, or nacreous clouds. They are very rare, and mostly seen on the northen part of the earth, in the middle of winter:
