The wonders of the solar system ~

Have you ever felt like you are one of the planets in the solar system?

Well if you have and are still feeling so, that’s really unhealthy of you but then again, is there really a way out of this? At this moment and probably for the next several millennia, it would be an utterly impossible task for the planets to move away from the sun since the latter’s gravity is way too strong. Plus, I don’t think there’s a very bright future for them because when the sun starts to die, it will expand and consume most of the planets (notably the first few planets closest to it). Eventually, the sun will turn into an insignificant black dwarf in space but by then, it would not matter anymore since the planets would have already been consumed by it.

Now, imagine yourself as one of the planets and the problems in your life as the sun. Damn, ain’t those problems of yours really big and not to mention, burning with such strong intensity that you can’t tear yourself away from it? So, what are you going to do or rather, what can you possibly do about it? If you are planet Earth, you will have to continue circling the problem because you are relying on the problem to continue with life. If you are planet Mercury, you can’t tear yourself away from the problem because you are wayy too close and too tightly held to it. If you are planet Pluto, the problem is neither close nor far from you. Since planet Pluto does not have a regular nice orbit, there will be times when it is closer to the sun and at other times, it would be further from the sun. However, you are still circling the problem albeit a much bigger circle but you would be in a safer condition since you will most probably, never be consumed by the problem. Then again, you would not know what will happen next if you just jump out of the orbit.

In reality, I believe that every single person on earth is feeling like one of the planets. *For a lot of people, I also believe that their sun would be money $$$* It’s just a matter of which planet they are. So which planet are YOU?

I think I am more like this planet (if you can figure it out…it’s really not that hard)

So, are you going to let the problem consume you? Unlike the planets, you have a choice of removing the problem before it destroys you....

On a different note, in case you are wondering…it is true that the sun will eventually die off but it will not be till a few billion years later. At this moment, the sun has already used up half of its nuclear fuel. By that time, I am pretty convinced that humans would have been completely wiped out either by a naturally induced catastrophe or we would have destroyed ourselves and the planet long before that time reaches. However, I will not rule out the possibility that humans would be really technologically advanced at that time and would be found living in spaceships or even on other planets.
