Spinning still. [the sun may have exploded less than 8 minutes ago and who would know?]
At one time, the church still thought that the sun was the center of the universe. Everything spun around it. It wasn't until some very smart men came around and said... "This doesn't appear to be correct. At all." (and they took those men to room 101. Or fed them hemlock. Or something) Those guys were right. And this led to many, many breakthroughs that led to a lot of the things that let out lives be great (heh heh) today.
Why the history lesson? People say that we should learn and preserve history, less we're doomed to repeat it. And this track. Is on repeat. Every 5 minutes here.
Picture 8 billion snowglobes. Floating around earth. Some are large and beautiful. Others are cracked and broken. Everyone in their right place.
No one wishes to get out? No one looks outside of their snowglobes with sympathy or pity on the others? Just inwards. Always inwards. Forever inwards.
