LIGHT SPEED ISN’T SO FAST

(  THIS IS BLOG POST NUMBER 2,222 ON LAWRENCERSPENCER.COM !  )

In our terrestrial view of things, the speed of light seems incredibly fast. But as soon as you view it against the vast distances of the universe, it’s unfortunately very slow. This animation illustrates, in real time, the journey of a photon of light emitted from the surface of the sun and traveling across a portion of the solar system, from a human perspective.

However, if you travel at the SPEED OF THOUGHT you can cross the void of space in an INSTANT!  For example:  get the idea very clearly in your mind that you are ON the Moon and viola! you are there!!  There is no speed or  time or distance involved.  Obviously, your body is not on the moon with you.  But, we don’t THINK with our body.  We think with our minds, which is not our body, or brain.  It’s just YOU thinking…..
