Aurora Borealis

Aurora Borealis - The Northern Lights in Alaska
Guam
December 21, 2012 1:03am CST
I've had the opportunity to travel to different parts of the world, and I think it's a part of enjoying life. I'm blessed to have had the opportunity to travel, and I have a deeper appreciation for the beauty in God's creations. One of the most beautiful views I have seen is the aurora borealis, or the Northern Lights, in Alaska. It is something of a natural light show in the sky. It is absolutely a sight to see. What other views in nature have truly captured you?

I have not seen a real Aurora Borealis in my life. That will be one of my wish list. You are so blessed to have seen one. Some people went there but no sighting, but some are so lucky to see one once they reach there. I have no seen any natural wonders yet but I always admire the beauty of nature wherever I go.

Thanks for your response. Yes, you should definitely put this sight down in your wishlist. There really are so many things in nature that are so beautiful. Even as close as home.. like on my home island, Guam, we have the most beautiful sunsets. And that alone is such a great blessing to see everyday. I'm sure there are some natural wonders in your location, even something as simple as a sunset or sunrise. God's paintings are everywhere around the world. =)

How I wish I could also travel to those places because I really haven't tried travelling to other countries!I guess I am one of those who are not so blessed with stuffs like travelling since it entails MONEY :)I love to see and visit breathtaking views its just that probably its not yet the right time ....I'll just have to be contented with the beautiful spots we have here and then save a lot for me to see those wonderful views outside my country. :) Looking forward to seeing Aurora Borealis!

Thanks for your response. How about taking a roadtrip if you live in the U.S. mainland, the Philippines, or any other big country? Hehe. But yea, maybe it's just not the right time for you at the moment. I'm sure though, that God has plans for you if that's what you want to do. If you just work hard and earn enough, or work for a big airline company to get traveling benefits, you'll eventually get the opportunity. I know, it does take a lot of hard work to earn enough to take a trip. It took me quite a while, too. But in the end, all my hard work and long hours paid off. =)

I do wish to see the northern lights. In tv it looks so magnificent, how much more if I see them with my own eyes. There are a lot of places I wish to visit but since I'm broke, I'm good with tv and computer watching the places.

I hope you get the chance to experience seeing the northern lights in person one day. But until then, I'm sure there are many beautiful sights around your location. Some of these natural wonders don't have to be one of the seven wonders of the world, I think beauty is in the eye of the beholder. So even if you might not have the money to travel, I'm sure if you step outside of your house.. you'll be able to find something natural and beautiful. You don't even have to step out, just look in the mirror. God created everyone in His own image and likeness, so you yourself are a natural beauty. =)
