I really love your blog! It makes me think a lot. I like the dark feeling it gives off. It's similar to the nights when you can't sleep because of all the thoughts coming up from the bottom of your heart. :') Have you ever been in love or do you have a crush at the moment? I think I am interested in someone but I'm not sure how I will know it for sure or what should I do... This is what keeps me up at night and makes me think a lot. :''))
Hey! Thank you so much, this is the first time someone has said something nice about my blog <3 Love is a difficult topic to talk about, you will know for sure when It’ll come. Some people have asked me about love advices, even though I’m not the best person to come to, and I always make sure to ask if this person they like treats them well, is caring towards them, and that the time spent together is not a waste. I’m a bit of a cynical person, I think about myself a lot so I think me feeling comfortable and happy in a relationship is the most important thing. I hope these “advices” per day might help you and don’t be afraid of messaging me in private, I don’t bite ;)
Look again at that dot. That’s here. That’s home. That’s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every “superstar,” every “supreme leader,” every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there–on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.
The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds.
Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves.
The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand.
It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we’ve ever known.
