Mr JL Katta,
 
Forgive me if it is Ms Katta. While I am at it, there is a prayer at the end of this piece which I hope it will not offend our Administrator. Thought I should send the whole thing as received.
 
Thanks JLK for your interesting email with the subject line "Our planet is truly fantastic....". Fantastic as the earth may be, this piece should bring you down to earth, in a manner of speaking. Viewed in isolation it is a wonderful planet our earth, but in the grand scheme of things it is nothing really. given the vastness of the universe and the countless billions of stars which dwarf our sun, I find it hard to believe that a little planet embedded in a solar system in some remote corner of the universe can be that special. But then I am no theologian, nor do I intend to join in any religious discussion of this subject (which of course would violate the leonenet rules). I am on the side of those who feel there's got to be other planets out there with unique and/or similar life forms.
Cheers.
John

 Now, THIS is really fascinating - it's rather
dazzling to see it from this perspective.

 



  








  

  






  





 
I CERTAINLY THOUGHT THIS WAS ENLIGHTENING.
BEYOND OUR SUN ... IT'S A BIG UNIVERSE.


 
   




   

ANTARES IS THE 15TH BRIGHTEST STAR IN THE SKY.
IT IS MORE THAN 1000 LIGHT YEARS AWAY.
NOW HOW BIG ARE YOU?
------------------------------------------------------------------
 
NOW TRY TO WRAP YOUR MIND AROUND THIS.........

THIS IS A HUBBLE TELESCOPE ULTRA DEEP FIELD INFRARED VIEW OF COUNTLESS
 'ENTIRE' GALAXIES BILLIONS OF LIGHT-YEARS AWAY.








 
 
BELOW IS A CLOSE UP OF ONE OF THE DARKEST
REGIONS OF THE PHOTO ABOVE.



HUMBLING, ISN'T IT?

 

NOW HOW BIG ARE YOU?
 AND HOW BIG ARE THE THINGS THAT UPSET YOU TODAY?

Lord Your workshop of creation reminds me:
If you can make the skies including the galaxies shown here,
you can make sense our of our struggles, here on earth.

Lord You are a “cut above” all else.
Enable us to set our sights on you.
 
Lord I accept your portion for my life today,
I surrender all my concerns,
regarding my well-being....
