Feeling The World
We live on a rock in the middle of nothingness. The moon is so far away, that it takes astronauts 13.7 hours going 17,500 miles per hour to get to it. How massive the moon is that we can see it with our own eyes on a clear nights sky. The earth is spinning 1,000 miles an hour and our solar system is moving at 490,000 mph and we feel nothing. Thank God there is no sound in space. If there were, we would not be able to hear ourselves speak to each other because the sun’s magnificent power would override any sound we have here on earth. What a beautiful earth we live on. How wonderfully made our planet is. We are so protected and guarded. We are in the exact place in our solar system so that we don’t burn to death or freeze to death. God thought of everything. What a mighty God we serve.
I think about that often. I also think If more of us thought about what we are in this universe and where we live, and how significant our planet is in the solar system, I am almost positive people would stop to take a breath of awe. We would focus a little bit more on purpose and not in the moment of emotions. We would be able to turn off the TV and bask in the thought of what we represent. When I stop to think about this miraculous world and this majestic Milky Way that we call home, everything else seems to go out the window. What was bothering me earlier in the day completely goes away. My frustration subsides, and I begin to look at things from a completely different perspective.
It humbles me and it allows me to regroup. It allows me to remember purpose. We may not understand what the bigger picture is, but we have the evidence that says there is a far bigger picture at play. We would look at ourselves as blessed that of all the planets in the solar system, ours is the only one that can sustain life. It’s a beautiful thing when you can think outside the box . I think it’s an absolute necessity for everyone to think outside the box.
There is always something greater than you. There is always something greater than your circumstances. This life we live should be cherished and respected. Self respect will grant respect for others. A peaceful mindset will garner peace. To spread love and share love will create a ripple effect. Don’t forget we are all one and we have to start thinking that way. We are blessed species. It’s time we stop forgetting.
