There’s a candy bar named after it. The center of the candy bar is made up of something called nougat (like newgut…not nugget). But this isn’t about the candy bar. I’m talkin’ about what it’s named after. And, of course, that’s the Milky Way Galaxy.
Both the candy bar and the galaxy have a “chocolate” coating.
Well, sort of. The candy bar is coated in milk chocolate. And the galaxy is covered in dust and gasses. So, almost identical.
But the Milky Way galaxy has better ingredients than the candy bar.
Yeah, when you get past the “chocolate” coating, and “bite” into THAT Milky Way, you see stars. And not because somebody hit you on the head. But because they’re the ingredients.
From our perspective, here on Earth, the galaxy looks milky. Like somebody spilled their morning bowl of cereal all across the sky. And the cool thing is, we’re in a finely tuned position in the galaxy to get a good look at it all.
It’s almost as if a Designer put things together in just the right way so we can get a glimpse of how amazing our universe is. And when I say “It’s almost as if,” you can just leave those words out. Because that’s how it happened. Regardless of how some so-called “scholars” still cling to the antiquated notion of a big bang that created everything from nothing.
The beautiful design of the Milky Way galaxy inspired me to include an instrumental song about it, called “Milky Way Bouquet,” in my Lullabye Bye collection. It’s a collection of cool lullabies even grownups enjoy. No home with small kids should be without these songs.
Get the Lullabye Bye songbook, which is also a coloring book and drawing book, today. And look for the super secret link in the back where you can download all the songs for free.
Then, watch little kids soar…
Through the trillion trails of starlight
Caught up in the constellations
Grows a great, galactic garden,
Fiery flowers in formations.
Watered with the words of wisdom,
The Designer deemed to say,
With love we can look and listen
To the Milky Way Bouquet.
