Understanding

I received a BEAUTIFUL postcard from UK today.. I was expecting it so it didn't hit me by surprise. I was told by Lin that it was such a beautiful postcard that she was rather reluctant to send it to people and decided to keep it for herself. But I guess I was the VERY lucky person that she choose to send to and I really thank her for that. Thank you Lin
Here is the postcard to start with.. Click to enlarge
To start with, I kinda looked at it as I took it out of the POBOX. I saw the card, expecting some amazing scenery of some place but instead i saw something foreign, it was some kinda art work that I did not understand. I was puzzled.. what was going through my mind was "Whats that lin?"
So I flipped the postcard around and started to read what she wrote (sorry but I don't think anyone appreciates their letter being read by the rest of the world so I will keep that private.
What she wrote did not tell me much about the postcards, as puzzled as I was before I started to look for more information that would tell me about this blueish redish thing.
And … I saw this…
When a Star Explodes – The Crab Nebula, Messier 1 (VTL/FORS) – (C) European Organisation for Astrtonomical Research in the Southern Hemisphere
That very instance it kinda hit me… So I started to look at it again and true enough, it does look quite beautiful.. As much as it being a star exploding, what amaze me is where the blue stuff comes from, you chem people might know
(whatever they are)…
The whole thing is just WOOSH, its nothing compare to what I've seen on astronomy stuff. You dont get to see that kind of thing everyday!
Lin wrote this down the bottom…
The universe of stars and what not. Sometimes mystery makes what's beautiful
– Y.Lin
So…Wonder what other kinda of mystery we are going to get in life.. We will find out wouldn't we?
——-
I've learn something new today.. sometimes we shouldn't judge something or someone just from the initial look. We tend to only understand and knowing the importance of someone/something after a period of time. Somethings may take longer some might not but no matter what it is, always give something a second chance because you'd never know what you will learn or get out of it…
This may not sound like something you believe in but this is certainly what I believe in so
SMILE!
