A speck of dust within the galaxy


Here under the night sky, I’m starring at Scorpion constellation. It reminds me the story of a novel entitled “Arus Balik” written by a legendary novelist, Pramoedya. How the great grandparents of Indonesia could manage to explore the mysterious of the sea. Furthermore, it is said that they even conquered the Eastern Asia in trading off the spices. What a great journey! Conjuring up my self used to live among them on the black flagged ship, fighting against the hard splashing of the wave and the storm. I would be anxiously dead in a second.

I guess that there was no oceanographer in the generation of my great grandparents. Nowadays, we notice that 66,57% of Earth is covered by the ocean, it is scientifically fair to say “we live on the blue planet.” This outlined fact explains why the ocean does conduct the bulk in setting up the climate and it will always does. If all the people were placed there, it only needs to take a span of the sea floor. Moreover, ocean is million years old, meaning a gap by thousand of one human life earlier than first homo sapien. A human life period is a wink of an eye compared to the ocean.

Although my great grandparents did not use to know aforementioned research, they were full of knowledge. Their curiosity’s play fullfilled brilliant ambition in order to conquer the dark age. As the hard blowing of the wind, it would wake the storm along with the wave. If only fishermen were craven in challenging the wind, they probably would be rest in drained hand strength of running the ship in the middle of nowhere. Then a flagged ship will never be written in history. Besides, the merchantmen wouldn’t be merchantmen if they were afraid of the dark. The darker the night, the more marvelous it will. Star formation would absolutely light every way to the mount of gold.

I shall conclude that homo sapien is certainly an unbelieveable creature. Despite human merely life in the span of time by around 65 years, its engagement in utilizing the world can’t be considered as trifling. This is largerly due to perpetuation of prior knowledge.
