The function of Gravity

The most essential function of gravity is obvious. It binds us to this earth. I just wanted to comment on how perfect this force is. It holds us to this earth just right. Not too strong, not to weak. We are able to walk upright without being pulled onto our face or rear ends, unless we trip and then we really understand the force of gravity. Just the same, we are not let loose to fly out into space. Thinking about gravity reminds me how undeniably perfect this earth and universe are. The way it has been created for us is so precise. It is easy to take for granted what a gift this all is.
