I’m in awe. It is the most beautiful, complex, mesmerizing, mysterious thing I have seen. And we have a picture of it. NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has given us the furthest and sharpest infrared image of our universe so far. The image is billions of light years away, approximately the size of a grain of sand held at arm’s length, and is filled with thousands of galaxies. (1) God has shown us a small glimpse of the expanse and beauty of His creation and the heavens above. Astronomers also recently detected a mysterious radio signal that is pulsing rhythmically […]

I first became aware of the phrase, “Keeper of the Stories” when I began to research lighthouses and their keepers. These men and sometimes women of yesteryear, also referred to as “Guardians of the Light”, were considered people of honor and respect though their work was very hard and lonely at times.

When this happens, my family will look cautiously over at me, shaking their head and thinking, “uh oh, here she goes again”. By my nature, I am a very factual and logical person, which serves me well in my computer career. Computers always have a reason […]

I’ve had Coldplay running through my head for days now – not the cold type, but the musical group. I was listening to their album during one of my runs last week – A Rush of Blood to the Head, from 2002. Their rhythm is precise and methodical. It has a familiar, monotonic beating of chords that stays repetitively in your head for awhile. Their music always reminds me of science and order and logic, so it was not too surprising to see that one of their songs from this album is called The Scientist. My math and science-minded background fits right into this type of melody, always questioning and analyzing, trying to […]
