My Home



I came across this humbling picture at stumbleupon.com

Excerpts from the picture above:
If you look carefully at the NASA photo below, you will see a little white dot. This minute speck is Earth seen from the Voyager 1 spacecraft as it exits the solar system, nearly 4 billion miles away. The photo was taken back in 1990. 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.


See the tiny white dot?.
The Tiny dot is the place we live in, The Earth.

This picture awakens the senses, a small dot represents our home, let's face it
at this moment – that's the only place in the galaxy that breeds life ......
amidst the troubles or life complexities that engulf us sometimes,
I felt humble just looking at the miracle, the picture of our only home....

I was awed by the picture. Nothing can be seen at the space, not even a dot of the
sun or stars but just the Earth that is visible.
