This is just too cool, I had to post it. It shows how amazing, and how crazy the brain is!
CHECK OUT THIS PICTURE:

1) If you follow the moving pink dot with your eye, it will stay pink.
2) If you focus on the center cross, you will see a green dot moving around the pink ones.
3) If you keep concentrating on the cross all the pink dots will disappear and there will be only a moving green dot.
BUT! There is NO GREEN DOT! Ever. And the pink dots DO NOT disappear.
Just just illustrates how what we think we see is not always accurate. It could also illustrate how if we focus on the Cross the little things of life will fade and we will begin to see God move in ways that others can not see!
Thanks to my Uncle John for sending me this!

I must concur. Very cool.
i loved it as well. How can we get that from you?
Wanna save it: If you are on a Mac, just drag the image to your desktop.
It is an animated gif. If a PC, right click and Save Image As to your desktop.

Whoa, that is way cool. Awesome.
Happy year and a half birthday Lukey. Aunt Meepa loves you SOOOOO much!!
Whoooa! So amazing! Has anyone used this in their kids’ church?
I’ve seen one a little similar … black spirals on a white background spun around and focus on the centre of the spinning spirals. After about a minute of spinning, look at somebody’s nose and it appears as if their nose grows! I kid you not!!!!
