Tucked away,
in a quiet corner
of the Milky Way galaxy,
is a tiny planet
called Earth.
It’s not the only planet.
There are at least 100 billion others,
and that’s just in our galaxy…
The Universe itself
has over 100 billion galaxies.
Let me do the maths…
That’s over 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 planets!
Do you really think,
we are alone?

Uh, no!!! We are not alone! Lol. The chances of earth being the only planet where life exists is pretty slim.
That’s a staggering amount of planets and galaxies. It’s fascinating to ponder what’s out there!!!

Not in a gazillion years. 🙂 I think we are the bad ones who were put on this prison planet to save everyone else from us. They were right to do it.

I agree there are some bad people in the world – but not everyone… maybe we are all here to learn how to be ‘better’ people…?
