Earth Day

Well, since it is Earth Day, I decided to dedicate a whole post to our glorious planet. The Earth has many things for me to ponder about. The ocean, for example, is so vast and so deep that we know more about our own moon than we do our own ocean! Isn't that crazy? the deep murky depths of the ocean holds secrets that no one has heard. It holds treasures that are yet to be found. Will we ever discover what these secrets and treasures are? Perhaps not!
Maybe there actually are mermaids in our sea! Creatures with fish tails and gills that hunt the fish in the deep. These creatures have been talked and debated about since almost forever. They are usually depicted as beautiful women with fish tails that lure men into the deep so that they can kill them. but what if that isn't the case?
What if, in actuality, they are quite ugly and horrific? They could have these pale, flat, faces and gills. With creepy, slimy, moss-green hair! We might never know! but hopefully in the near future, we will have the technology needed to find these things and offer a great peace offering.
Or maybe, we could find the LEVIATHAN.
Leviathan is a sea monster referenced in the Tanakh, or the Old Testament. The word has become synonymous with any large sea monster or creature. In literature it refers to great whales, and in Modern Hebrew, it simply means "whale". Many people who read the bible will remember reading about this mighty monster. It is said that he is so large that he can circle around the whole world and grab his own tail in his mouth. Even God is said to fear him.
Does this beast exist? Many would hope not, but think about it. He could be hiding. In the Mariana Trench, the depth can go up to more than the height of Mt. Everest! And it also goes to say that we haven't even scratched the surface of our deepest trench! He could be hiding down there.
Waiting.
Waiting for us to come and discover his magnificence. 
Now it is time that i ask you;
Do you believe?
Do you think these creatures, and more, are waiting for us at the bottom of the ocean?
Do you think we will ever become technologically advanced enough to ever find out?
Maybe.
Maybe not.

Blog out.
