(This blog has nothing to do with the Ed Sheeran song, sorry)
Okay, kind of serious and a little overwhelming (to me, at least) topic. I've recently watched this short video on YouTube. It was about Earth and our solar system, plus the Universe. After it, I kinda just… shut off for a moment. Kind of like when you think: Oh, woah. This is too much! And then promptly put it on the backburner to stew about later. Yeah, that explains my reaction, lol. So, I just started to actually think about it, and it really kind of opened my mind.
(I just read back over what I've wrote so far and realized how many times I've used the word kinda/kind of. Apologies now, it probably won't stop. Apparently, I'm in a kinda mood).
… Back to topic!
The video, in really simple terms, went kinda like this: Earth > Other planets + Sun > Milky Way > Other solar systems > Universe.
The person that made the video explained the approximate sizes of these things (Earth seems terribly small now) and practically compared us, Earth, to a tiny spec of dirt on a windshield. It reminded me of how much we still don't know about the the World… well, the Universe. For all we know, there could be another planet just like Earth in another solar system that has humans living on it, and we probably won't even know about it for a very long time.
Lol. So this was kind of a more serious topic. I didn't know what else to write, so I was just putting what I thought after watching a YouTube video, hence the title “Thinking Out Loud”... well, not really out loud, but you get my point!
I'm out! (I don't know why I do this every time, I think I'm just making it into a signature thing, like when people who post on YouTube often usually have a closing, so I guess that's what the “I'm out!” always is [if I could put a shrug emoji here I would] Wait! Found it: 🤷 lol️)

i think this is a really cool topic. i also find it weird how little we know as human of what goes on in other solar systems and out in space. sometimes, this is gonna sound stupid but ima put it in here anyway because this is my last comment) i believe that we’re all brain washed and their is other life out there or that we’re living in a simulation. haha i know dumb right but it’s scary to think about. xoxo carmen c.
ReplyDeleteNo joke I was hoping you were gonna write the whole thinking out loud song then explain it. lol jk.. not gonna lie when someone talks about the universe or outer space I get kinda creeped out. Cause my dad told me one time no one can hear you scream in space. It’s true something messed with the sound up there which I’m not down for. Also we super small, so small it makes me uncomfortable to be honest. For I thought we wouldn’t even matter cause we’re that dirt spect. That’s not what I think now not the point tho. Last thing I wanna through out here is, is it just me or is it suspicious that we haven’t been to the moon since like 1970’s? Space pls explain. // - Grace Anne
