Galileo was Right. (positivity prompt)
My entry for Week 4… journaling reads…
When I think of positivity, I always picture a big, bright sun against a brilliant blue sky. I keep the “O Brother, Where Art Thou” soundtrack in my car, and when the kids start bickering or complaining, I blast the song, “Keep on the Sunny Side of Life.” Usually they beg me to turn it off, but they do stop the negativity and even smile.
In the 1600’s, An Italian thinker named Galileo was put on trial and jailed for writing a book in which he declared that the Copernican theory of heliocentricity was truth. This idea of the Earth revolving around the sun, rather than everything revolving around the Earth, was considered heresy.
But guess what – Galileo was right. Everything revolves around the bold, bright, sun. Without the sun’s positive energy, life as we know it on Earth would not exist. It is the same concept we humans should apply to our individual lives. Life is bolder, brighter, and more brilliant when it is given a steady flow of positive energy. I believe Galileo would agree.
