The log shows that it's all packets try to penetrate your firewall. This is normal public internet traffic sent by people trying to break into your system. Your firewall is doing its job of blocking this unwanted junk just like you want it to do. If you don't want to see this stuff in your log then remove the log keyword from your rules and it will stop logging that junk.
