Speak softly love
So no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will live until we die.
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly
Love.

It's amazing
How you can speak
Right to my heart
Without saying a word
You light up the dark
Try as I may
I can never explain
What I hear when
You don't say a thing ....

"In commemoration of NASA's Hubble Space Telescope completing its 100,000th orbit in its 18th year of exploration and discovery, scientists at the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, Md., have aimed Hubble to take a snapshot of a dazzling region of celestial birth and renewal."

"Hubble peered into a small portion of the nebula near the star cluster NGC 2074 (upper, left). The region is a firestorm of raw stellar creation, perhaps triggered by a nearby supernova explosion. It lies about 170,000 light-years away near the Tarantula nebula, one of the most active star-forming regions in our Local Group of galaxies. This representative color image was taken on August 10, 2008, with Hubble's Wide Field Planetary Camera 2. Red shows emission from sulfur atoms, green from glowing hydrogen, and blue from glowing oxygen."

Happy Anniversary, Hubble.

Here are a few helpful hints for the day from a little book I found recently called NANCY DREW'S GUIDE TO LIFE:



Don't hide in a phone booth. Someone could turn the tables on you and trap you in it by wedging a piece of wood under the door. ~ The Clue in the Jewel Box

Flowers sent by secret admirers might be coated with poison. ~ The Secret of the Golden Pavilion

When pinned down by a large canine, instruct friends, family, even random passersby to direct a hose on the beast. ~ The Mysterious Mannequin

You can tell a lot about a man by his hands. ~ The Clue in the Jewel Box

Come up with a clever code with your beau in case one of you is ever kidnapped. ~ The Invisible Intruder

After receiving an electrical shock to the system, find as many men as possible to vigorously massage you. ~ Mystery of the Glowing Eye

Don't say "well" all the time. It's far from well. ~ Nancy's Mysterious Letter

Well.

At night when the sky is clear
and the moon is shining down
My heart goes running back to you
I love the way
You open up and let me in
So I go running back to you,

Over and over again.
