The Universe in which we live continually expands form what many scientists believe is the point of origin. Whether or not you believe in the big bang, and regardless of what speicifc ideas you might have on the matter, there is a clear point in space and time attributed to this original event.

And researchers are able to literally track the outward movement of the cosmos by using the big bang as a reference point.

I’ve always felt one of my core purposes in life is continued learning and growth. Clearly there is an intuitive value to this observation.

And cutting-edge research into happiness tells us that being happy is – on a physical level – an expansive act. Our energetic body or subatomic field literally expands when we are in a state of joy or happiness.

I find all this quite interesting. It seems the notion of expansion and growth is an integral part of life.

As the cosmos continues to move outwoard, to grow and expand, so must I conitnue to grow, evolve, and expand as human being. Furthermore I believe our entire species, though having suffered a period of “density”, is moving into an era of expansive thinking and knowing.

It gives the term onward and upward a new depth, don’t you think?
