theSunEffect

i used to hitchhike to go to my lectures when i was a student. there was one good and safe place that drivers could see me early enough to make a decision and at the same time it was a safe place for them to stop. when hitchhiking, a good facial pose increases the possibility to be accepted by a car: you should smile a little bit, open your eyes and so on. however in the morning lectures i have this problem with the posing. the sun came directly to my eyes forcing me to grimace, decreasing the chances which i had to deal with. so i moved a little backwards for the signboard on the top comes in between providing a shadow for my eyes...

however as time goes by, day by day, as spring begins, daytime expands, compared to the same exact time yesterday the sun positions higher in the sky, gradually exceeding the signboard boarders, coming directly to my eye again but this time brighter and brighter. i could not stop the grimace.

what i eventually recognise was although i put high efforts, think a lot, find solutions; although i worked hard just to find a way to block the sunlight for i could achieve my gole in hitchhike, in the end when i lost hope and surrendered by the power of sun, i forgot about the hitchhike and courses and everything. the sun was so beautiful that i realise that all that time i was a fool trying to avoid...

the physical equations state the same: the required initial speed of any object on earth's surface to escape from sun's gravitational field is 1.7 million m/s (340000 mi/h). this simple expression clearly states that at least for an hundred years more we are prisoners of the sun and will not be able to escape from it.

so lets all love the sun shall we? :))))
