I have just been informed that I could live on a better planet than Earth. According to the source, it's an alien planet that is more habitable than Earth. Would I be willing to forfeit my continuation of living here and then relocate somewhere else? A place I don't know yet.
To me, it’s like the unknown where I might even be disappointed if I decide to go while uprooting my life here on earth to begin a new life elsewhere.
Imagine hearing the news that there's another planet out there that could support life. A planet with air, water and land where humans can live. I don't think I would be ready to pack up my life here on earth and go. I would definitely choose Earth again.
This isn't about being scared of the unknown, but because I believe this is the place God, who created the universe and planet, has designed for us.
The way Earth works is not a mistake. God knows why He made it that way. From the air we breathe to the way the sun rises and sets, everything is perfectly fine and balanced. God made all things beautiful and He saw that all He created was good.
God could have put us anywhere, yet, He chose to place us here. So, He has every reason for that. That, to me, is enough reason to trust that Earth is our true abode.
When I googled other planets, I realised just how fortunate we are on Earth. It's a special planet for me. Take for example, Mars. I have seen people talk about living there someday, but let me shock you that Mars is a cold desert with hardly any air to breathe. If you want to just step outside, you would need a suit on. We don't know what we are enjoying here on Earth.
How about Venus? I shake my head, lol. This planet is even worse than Mars. The heat there is so extreme that it could melt metal, and the clouds are made of acid. You'd be careful so you aren't showered with acid on your body.
At least Jupiter is still beautiful, but that is from afar, especially with how colourful the storms are, but the ground is not a solid one. You wouldn’t be able to stand on it.
So tell me! Having known about these, would I still decide to leave this special and beautiful planet for a place I do not know, where anything could happen? Never! Lol. I am okay being on this planet Earth while enjoying all that is in it. I don't know if the water there is safe to drink or if their air would fill my lungs the way Earth's does.
Just take a look at our Earth. We wake up to blue skies and golden sunlight. Isn't that beautiful? What about the rain? It falls and turns the ground green, benefiting the farmers and producing food for everyone to survive.
The rivers give us water to drink. Oceans provide us with fish, and the forests aren't left out - they give us shade and clean air. Every day, I hear the little birds sing above my window, see flowers bloom and children laughing and playing around the whole environment. To me, Earth is alive and thriving, and I don't think I can enjoy all of these elsewhere; in fact, Earth is incomparable.
Even beyond surviving alone, Earth holds our history. Every memory you've ever made, every step you've taken, every loved one you've known - they all happened here. I don't want to forfeit all of these for another planet. These things are what make life fun when I remember those moments and laugh while cherishing them.
So, the answer is a big NO. Earth is not just where I live; it's a treasure, a gift God gave to me and everyone.
