Home is not a place...but a feeling

I have had a lot of friends and aquitances travelling all over the world and I could not understand how they could do this without getting attached to anyone , or without experiencing challenges leaving their loved ones behind...It's true that for some it was easier than for others but they still made it.

Recently, i've also had the opportunity to share the same experience and to see that home is not a place but a feeling...and the more you feel at "home" with yourself the more you will be happy to know the world around you and get to meet people that are in the same situation and in this respect I've also remembered the saying that i simply love ...:  " There are no strangers , only friends we have not met yet" and if you take he courrage to believe it , miracles can happen to you...Call me naiv, but I feel that if I go on in this world searching for nice experiences and giving nice experiences to people around me ..just because I exist , there must be out there other people like me as well...

So , if you feel like you don't belong to a place ...or you wish to explore the world...take that chance ..take it because the only thing we know for sure since we are born is the fact that we are going to die...so live fully , take risks and learn from each and every experience you get ..most of us just crawl through this life ..not living it ...just taking insurances wherever we go or whatever we do , without realising that we create a prison around us .



Have a blessed day !

Would you travel there ?

Exista dupa parerea mea locuri pe care dorim sa le vizitam pentru frumusetea peisajelor, altele pentru vacante , petreceri etc..si altele pentru a lua contact cu lucruri noi ..mistere ..locuri in care, daca vrei sa te duci prietenii o sa te considere nebun. Si totusi ..fiecare cu ce rezoneaza.

In continuare va prezint acest articol preluat de pe http://blogenciclopedic09.blogspot.ro/2012/04/top-10-cele-mai-ciudate-asezari-ale.html , despre Federatia Damanhur , Italia.

La 30 de km de orasul italian Torino se afla orasul subteran Damanhur supranumit Orasul Luminilor si sediul comunitatii damanhuriene. Locuitorii sai sustin ca puternica lor baza sociala, spirituala si economica reprezinta un exemplu demn de urmat de catre intreaga omenire. Ei au propria constitutie, propria moneda (credito) si propria limba , folosita in ritualuri. Idealul declarat al damanhurienilor il consitutie promovarea libertatii de exprimare si circulatie a ideilor, incurajarea creativitatii si "imbunatatirea sinelui" , vazute ca pasi pe calea evolutiei superioare a speciei umane . Locul a constituit multa vreme un secret pastrat cu strasnicie. Vastul complex de galerii si domuri subpamantene este cel mai mare din lume si , pana de curand , nici unui strain nu i s-a permis accesul aici.


Existenta templului subteran a fost facuta publica abia in urma cu cativa ani, de catre un fost membru al comunitatii. De atunci , Damanhur si-a deschis portile si pentru vizitatori. Pretutindeni , simbolurile evoca dualitatea existentei barbat-femeie , bine-rau, Soare-luna , podelele sunt decorate cu mozaicuri , iar peretii cu figuri in marime naturala , reprezentate dansand si luptandu-se.

Toate acestea au fost lucrate exclusiv cu mana, asa cum au cerut intemeietorii. Fiecare incapere simbolizeaza unaspect al existentei : sala metalelor , unde viciul si virtutea duc o lupta fara sfarsit, sala pamantului , cu usile sale solara si selenara, sala oglinzilor si sala apei , unde peretii sunt decorati cu texte intiatice, scrise in limba secreta a comunitatii. Aici , femeile si barbatii sutn parteneri egali si isi unesc fortele completandu-se reciproc.

Damanhurienii au un mod specific prin care se lupta cu "fortele malefice" : calatoriile astrale. Nu numai ca exista cursuri de felul acesta la Universitatea Damanhur , dar exista si o incapere speciala rezervata calatoriilor in timp si spatiu.

How life begins in the deep ocean :)

We all were rocket ships when we were little , exploring life and surroundings .

Va invit sa urmariti filmuletul de mai jos pentru a vedea cum incepe viata in adancurile oceanului.

Solutia NFC a ajuns in Romania




La fel m-am intrebat si eu ? Ce mai e si NFC ? :D

Si cu toate inclinatiile mele spre arta si comunicare , trebuie sa recunosc ca viata este mult mai usoara cu ajutorul tehnologiei, asa ca nu puteam sa nu efectuez un mic studiu sa aflu cum ar putea sa ne ajute aceasta inovatie.

In primul rand ca vom efectua mult mai usor si in siguranta plati folosind telefonul mobil pentru a achita cumparaturile din supermarketuri, restaurante , fast food, farmacii sau chiar accesul la metrou.

Asa ca ..in loc sa folosim bani lichizi pentru a plati produse sau bilete de transport , o simpla apropiere a telefonului de cititorul NFC va rezolva problema :)

World’s Biggest Eye On The Sky




That's right , nu doar meduzele sunt pasiunea mea ci si planetele si stelele :) iar astazi deoarece am fost enervata de dimineata de anumite circumstante, am ales sa ma delectez cu o revista de specialitate si o cafeluta in loc sa "rumeg" la starea mea si am invatat inca o data cu aceasta ocazie ca exista lucruri mai marete pe aceasta lume decat supararile noastre.

Drept urmare am aflat despre noul telescop european ce va fi construit si nu puteam decat sa ma gandesc la cata munca au depus acesti oameni , creativitate , studiu , pasiune..pentru ca noi cei pasionati de aceste lucruri sa putem sa intram in contact cu Universul ..planete , stele si minunatia acestora.

Asadar , in a doua jumatate a lunii iunie, conducerea ESO (European Organisation for Astronomical Research  in the Southern Hemisphere) a aprobat programul construirii telescopului european gigantic E-ELT (European Extremly Large Telescope).

Oglinda acestuia va avea un diametru de 39,3 m , fiind alcatuita din 906 segmente de forma hexagonala , si va putea fi folosita pentru supravegherea Universului in infrarosul apropriat si in vizibil.

Telescopul va fi construit in Chile , la o altitudine de 3000 m pe varful muntelui cerro Armazone. Aceasta amplasare ofera conditii exceptionale de observatie : 320 de nopti senine pe an , umiditate redusa si stabilitate atmosferica exceptionala.

Ce am uitat sa mentionez este ca va dura circa un deceniu pana cand constructia E-ELT va fi finalizata.

Dar cred ca merita asteptarea :)

Inspiration of the day ..Interesting Facts on Medusa

Lately..I have fallen in love with Medusa's..Okay, I know they are dangerous ...but how graceful , what colors and how beautiful they can be ..and keep in mind this ..no brain , no respiratory system ..and yet so mysterious and floating free in the ocean :)


Now , if I have attracted your curiosity..see below some interesting facts about Medusa.


Enjoy !





1. Jellyfish first appeared about 650 million years ago and are found in every ocean, from the surface to the deep sea. Some are also found in fresh water

2. Medusa (plural medusae) is another word for jellyfish. Medusa is also the word for jellyfish in: Greek, Finnish, Portuguese, Romanian, Hebrew, Serbian, Croatian, Spanish, French, Italian, Hungarian, Polish, Czech, Slovak, Russian and Bulgarian


3. Since jellyfish are not actually fish, some people consider the term jellyfish a misnomer, and American public aquariums have popularized use of the terms jellies or sea jellies instead

4. A group of jellyfish is called a bloom or swarm

5. Jellyfish do not have a respiratory system since their skin is thin enough that the body is oxygenated by diffusion

6. Jellyfish do not have a brain or central nervous system, but rather have a loose network of nerves, located in the epidermis, which is called a “nerve net.”

7. Jellyfish are composed of more than 90% water. Most of their umbrella mass is a gelatinous material (the jelly) called mesoglea, which is surrounded by two layers of cells which forms the umbrella (top surface). The subumbrella (bottom surface) of the body is known as the bell

8. Jellyfish are dioecious; that is, they are either male or female. In most cases, to reproduce, both males and females release sperm and eggs into the surrounding water, where the (unprotected) eggs are fertilized and mature into new organisms

9. Box jellyfish venom is the most deadly in the animal kingdon and has caused at least 5,568 recorded deaths since 1954. Each tentacle has about 500,000 sindasites which are harpoon shaped needles that inject venom into the victim


10. The lion’s mane jellyfish is the largest known species of jellyfish. The Arctic Lion’s mane jellyfish is one of the longest known animals and the largest recorded specimen had a bell (body) with a diameter of 2.3 m (7 feet 6 inches) and the tentacles reached 36.5 m (120 feet). It was found washed up on the shore of Massachusetts Bay in 1870
