Why did I choose the name "To the Stars" as my blog title? Because that is the meaning of my name Adastra..."ad astra" means "to the stars" in latin. (Okay, okay....no, it's not my real name...)...
I chose this name for many reasons. First, let me quote a verse from the Bible..."The heavens declare the glory of God, the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge. There is no speech or language where their voice is not heard. Their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world." Psalm 19:1-4.
I love these verses!
There is no limit to the heavens above, and sometimes I can stare at the night sky, or a sunset and be completely awestruck at its beauty...or ponder even further about what is says of our Creator. ... "Night after night they display knowledge"
It's a beautiful thing...to take a moment and look up in amazement. Why is it that I never catch anyone else doing the same? Am I alone in this? Is life just too busy? I know myself that sometimes it is...But I believe we make time for what is really important to us....at least as much as we can.
But all in all, "to the stars" describes me. I'm always pondering on the mysteries of God...and often I think I have my head in the clouds...or "to the stars".
And the universe is filled with mystery!! So...the title to my blog is "to the stars"...meaning I post about anything...any subject from the depth of the sea to the stars above.
