Mother Earth

Are you familiar with this lyric? 

"Everything I need is on the ground.

Nah, but they don't hear me though

Yeah, what goes up it must come down.

Nah, but they don't hear me though 

You're running out of time!"


Times up! You got it right! It's Rosé's On The Ground lyrics. Nothing could be more true than this.


'Mother Earth' or 'Mother Nature' is a personification of nature that has aspects of life-giving and nurturing, like a mother should be. Based on the Bible or any other ancient literature, a mother gives birth and has a god-given capacity to nurture her young ones, not only her biological children but also the children of others.

Why not The Earth Father? So, who is the father? Is he The Sun, like in a nursery rhyme, O Mr. Sun?


Back again on the life-giving nature and nurturing aspects, our Earth literally provides our basic needs, which are oxygen and water. Can you ask Mr Sun for oxygen and water? Of course, you can't! Our starship can't event reach him. However, water exists on Mars. 


How about Oxygen? According to NASA, there is a very small amount of oxygen on Mars, but we do have technology called MOXIE, which makes oxygen by extracting it from Martian air. Martian air is full of carbon dioxide and a very small amount of oxygen. The interesting fact, oxygen is not just for our breathing, our rocket can make a single trip to Mars, but rocket propellant also needs oxygen to make a trip home. MOXIE's principal investigator, Michael Hecht, said oxygen is key. 


I think we should thank Mom Earth for the large amount of oxygen. Or THE FATHER in heaven who placed us here.

Adventure with God

By

To the mountain, where I can find the fire hole To the valley, where I can look for the water stream To the city, where I can find an exciting job To the cave, where I can find the bats To the grave, where I can find reality To the highway, where I can feel the velocity To the lake, where I can enjoy silence To the big river, where I can feel the danger To the deep blue sea, where I can see the other creatures I am going on an adventure with God.

'Oat' and 'Out'

By
"Son, if the oats finish, we may need to go out!" Said a young mother to her little boy. How do you perceive this line, a sad line? Supposing it is a sad line, yes, they need to go out! Even if it is a happy line, they still need to go out. "Mom, let's go out and pick strawberries instead! The boy responded cheerfully. I learned something from children way of thinking, that we can count on their big picture thinking in hard times or dilemma. Photo source: Unsplash (Photographer: No-Revisions)

X'mas Self Esteem

By
Photo Source: Pixabay (Photographer: Sidra Iftikhar) Merry I live in the capital city and don't have a boyfriend. My parents live in another city. I always spend my Christmas days in a boarding house. Thank God I have a few friends who want to join me at church.  Happy I study at college at night and work in the daytime, don't have a boyfriend, my parents have just divorced, and my mom always makes us spend Christmas holiday in a hotel in town. This is how we survive Christmas. Joy I work a full-time job as a waitress in a Chinese Restaurant. I spend my Christmas in a restaurant. I volunteer to work on holiday, because my family is not in this country. My fiancé can not come to see me. The Christmas ornaments are the only festive thing that makes me feel like Christmas day.
