1. restricted to the earth. “a flightless earthbound bird”
2. limited to material existence as distinct from a spiritual or heavenly one.

As human beings, we are physically limited to this earthly realm for a good reason. It is our home.

“To Earth” is both physical and spiritual – we anchor our feet into nature to make us “feel” better.

We live off “the land.” We “ground” ourselves.

So – why is there so much emphasis on Outer Space? That is not our realm. We, as physical beings, are NOT meant to travel up there.

Up There is a place that we can look at, study, admire, wonder about…but NEVER travel to. It is NOT our domain.

Just saying :o)
