I am delighted that you have published this post and your cute Earth Day doodle. Here’s more musing about Earth Day in relation to humanity, and also looking back at Earth out in space.
The recent mission to the far side of the moon was quite a sight to behold. Speaking of astronomy and looking up into the sky, the late Carl Sagan had been such a wonderful human being that we desperately need more people like he nowadays, people who can inspire others so amicably and commendably. I have read many of his books, including “The Demon-Haunted World”. I read these books a long time ago, and thus feel delighted and also very nostalgic when watching documentaries or YouTube videos containing Sagan’s words of enduring significance.
His message about the “Pale Blue Dot” provides such a lovely, grand and unifying prose to prompt us to do something about being good earthlings and cultivating critical thinking! His words always elicit in me a feeling of nostalgia, humility and profundity. Needless to say, this message is presented as the very last quotation in my expansive multimedia post about Earth Day at
What an inspirational life Sagan had! The series “Cosmos” is such a watershed for its breadth and depth, not to mention Vangelis’ music. As you probably already know, Neil deGrasse Tyson, a scientist who greatly admires the late Carl Sagan, has presented the new series of “Cosmos”.
I also own the book entitled “Carl Sagan: A Life” by Keay Davidson.
There is also his daughter Sasha Sagan’s beautiful memoir/humanist manifesto/love letter to the Cosmos, entitled For Small Creatures Such as We: Rituals for Finding Meaning in Our Unlikely World“.
Wishing you a very happy and fulfilling Earth Day! May you savour Nature’s beauty as you witness a new horizon and journey towards a lingering sunset just as the treasured essences of Mother Earth bid you an evening farewell during the twilight hours of Earth Day…..
