There are no passengers on Spaceship Earth. We are all crew.” Marshall McLuhan

We are not here on earth for a free ride we are all responsible for our journey through space. We are all crewmembers guiding and directing our spaceship earth on its course. We are responsible for her condition as she travels through endless space.

As our planet, earth travels through space guided by the hand of God. To keep her course as she orbits around the sun it is for us as the inhabitants of our world to see to it that our planet earth travels safely along her journey.

Throughout our history, we have been at war with ourselves as the human race. Although we all are inhabitants of the same world, we cannot seem to get along with one another. We have enough nuclear power to destroy our planet several times over.

As we travel 365 ΒΌ days to complete our journey around the sun this is what makes up our calendar year. We seldom take notice of the precise timing involved in our orbit around the sun. We are unaware of the captain who maintains our course through our history.

Yes, God is our pilot and we are the crew if we live by his rules then we would live in peace and harmony with ourselves. However, we choose to disobey our heavenly father’s wishes and try to live without him in our lives.

We the people of the world must come together only then when we live in peace can we move forward to conquer our universe. For love is the key that unlocks the doors of our mysterious and complex world we live in.

To love one another is our motivating factor that inspires us to rule our lives harmoniously as we live from day to day. With love we can conquer without it, we are doomed.

Therefore, here on spaceship earth we must put a smile on Mother Earth’s face by loving one another, by doing so we live with her guidance and love. Our journey becomes pleasurable and is worth the trip.
