How strange it is to realize that on a universal scale, our massive, life-giving sun which dwarfs our planet so completely is but a tiny speck in the cosmos.
How strange it is to realize that on a scale of all time, the entire history of humanity is but a tiny blip.
To this humble being, Earth seems massive, and even the scale of our man-made structures give me pause, yet this planet is indiscernible on a universal scale, much like the atoms that comprise my body are indiscernible to the naked eye.
How strange it is to realize that I am but a single indiscernible atom in the universal body, and that my only true contribution is to be most fully myself.
