how exactly we are moving on planet earth...
Like thinking of the approximate angle of earths axis, it's rotation speed, our position regarding the sun....
Our position regarding the galaxy......
And perhaps just thinking-why bother with our daily affairs?
I'm happy as it is, this cosmic reality is here for us to enjoy....
It's like we're allready in heaven?
Like, everyone has an idea of our position, but does anyone actually REALISE what it represents?
To think that if you could sleep for a billion years, you'd wake up to the same scenario....nothing would have moved......?!

What beautiful way to waste time .
To just lay on the grass and look up at the sky and let the mind wander. Hours can seem like minutes as you let go of all your problems.
It's like going spear fishing and forgetting to even try to get fish ,just admiring the beauty . One of the most beautiful sights was coming across some stingrays swimming they where like butterflies under water so graceful.
I often take the boat fishing ,find a nice spot ,drop in a line and just enjoy the peace and quiet , half the time I don't really want to catch fish. (one rule on my boat , no phones turned on).

I had enough classes in general relativity to know that kinematic notions about the position of an obeserver matter little in the large picture.
So, no, unless I need a Newtonian approximation of my relative position to something else that's close to us, e.g. to launch a probe to another planet, I wouldn't worry too much about it.
As far as bothering about daily affairs is concerned, I have people, including myself to take care off. And there is nothing wrong with having a life, anyway. I had physics and metaphysics to enjoy long before I got a life. And they never gave me the same sense of reality as the people I love do. However, I would not, for any money in the world, want to give up what I know about the universe.
So there... you can have it both.

I feel like that a lot. It's odd really, how every here is set exactly so we can live. If the Earth was another hundred miles away from the sun, or a hundred miles closer, something else would've happened. But it didn't.

that kinda hurt my head to think about that, live each day as it comes and never go out or to bed after you've said something cruel to someone you love because you might regret it, thats how i think anyway, but i like looking at the sky at night anyway cos it's pretty.
