Are you aware Star Wars is a story and not real?

My quote is from the first movie when Obi-Wan Kenobi explains the force to Luke,

“Size matters not. Look at me. Judge me by my size, do you? Hmm? Hmm. And well you should not. For my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is. Life creates it, makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you; here, between you, me, the tree, the rock, everywhere, yes. Even between the land and the ship.” – Yoda

The second quote is from the second movie when Yoda explains the force to Luke. Maybe you should go back and rewatch them because you obviously weren't paying attention.

“It's an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us; it binds the galaxy together.” Obi-Wan Kenobi
