We never feel motion, only change of motion. That's why it's so easy to sleep on

a jet airliner zooming along at 500 miles per hour, but not in a car that's creeping

on a rough gravel road. As long as the speed and direction don't change, we never

feel a thing.

Why don't we feel earth movement?

You can't actually feel movement; you can only feel change in movement. Consider that when you are on a plane that is moving very fast you can feel it bumping and rocking from minor turbulence, but you do not feel any different due to the speed. Since Earth both orbits the sun and rotates at a constant speed, you feel no change. It is true, however, that you are constantly changing direction due to the rotation and orbit of Earth, but that change is slight and constant and its effects are completely overwhelmed, from our perception, by Earth's gravity.
