“Leonidas, that may be the only thing we ever agree on, but I do agree with you on that one.”

I seriously doubt it, I think people agree on most things, its how to achieve those things where disagreements take place and even then, I think there is more agreement than disagreement. We tend to focus a lot of energy where we disagree is all and often lose a sense of proportion due to it. Then we see a picture like this and get reminded.

I have many friends as liberal as you are, and friends who consider me a “RINO” pulicically (some have even called me a democrat since I liked Clinton) we have diner at restaurants we all like, cheer for the same team while drinking the same brand of beer, we all have fun playing with the kids together, etc. And we all go out for ice cream together (although we can't go to Ben & Jerry's as one of my friends boycotts them), and we all enjoy each other's company immensely.

Lets face it, those pig headed Liberals/Conservative/Independents/Moderates are actually in most cases very lovable folk.

It's almost frightening, to me at least. It's overwhelming. I don't find it soothing, but I do find it humbling! Beautiful in a very intense way. It's almost frightening, to me at least.

Its soothing yet humbling to look at this type of cosmic beauty. I often loose myself for hours looking at NASA and other sites that have space photography.
