New Experience: Watching The Solar Eclipse From a Rooftop in Mumbai!

admin July 22, 2009 123

Today’s Solar Eclipse went unwitnessed by millions who succumbed to the superstitions associated with this momentary disappearance of the sun.  Many stayed inside and closed the shades, worried that the literal darkness was a foretelling of personal misfortune.  Wow.  I don’t know whether I should feel like a fool, or just a foreigner, but I had the once in a lifetime opportunity to stare straight at it (with sunglasses!) from a rooftop in Mumbai, and I did.  It was like the top of a black snow-cone, a giant fire-rimmed pupil.  6 minutes of night when it should have been day.   

The bizarre has a gravitational pull.  Through embracing the unknown we discover clues about ourselves, some dormant essence awakens within us.  There’s nothing wrong with indulging superstitions, of course, but I find that these precious events can move us away from ideas and into experience.  That’s how you open your eyes. 

Killing It is revering oddity and admitting the abnormal into your life.

    Thanks for your concepts. One thing really noticed is that banks in addition to financial institutions understand the spending behavior of consumers and understand that a lot of people max away their credit cards around the trips. They prudently take advantage of this specific fact and start flooding your inbox and also snail-mail box along with hundreds of Zero APR card offers right after the holiday season closes. Knowing that in case you are like 98% in the American general public, you’ll jump at the possiblity to consolidate personal credit card debt and shift balances towards 0 annual percentage rates credit cards.

    Another thing I have really noticed is that for many people, a bad credit score is the response to circumstances beyond their control. By way of example they may happen to be saddled with an illness so that they have higher bills going to collections. It may be due to a job loss or maybe the inability to go to work. Sometimes divorce can truly send the financial circumstances in the wrong direction. Many thanks sharing your opinions on this web site.

    I have been told to improve your creative writing you need to read a lot.. What great classic books, can I read (from any period or country) that will improve my writing.. Genre is unimportant, though I am not writing for children.. I said classic, I read science fiction/recent literature as entertainment. But to improve the quality of writing, read the masters. Can any one write a list of great writers to read..

    Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
