Small, but not insignificant. Even the minutest being can create the largest waves, even in the vast sea of the universe.

I love Sagans Pale Blue Dot! Carl was not only a brilliant mind but he was a great human being. He raised the alarm about protecting our planet from destruction from our activity. He believed in be a good steward to the only home we have ever known.

Is that a movie?

Google Carl Sagan Pale Blue Dot. It is a must see.

@twaseverthus I have YouTube on my PS4. I might watch it this week. I have been looking for good things to watch. Thanks for the suggestion.

You are so welcome!

I feel a human. I love to see how in touch Carl Sagan was with nature. He could see how small we are, the love, the evils, the suffering and the joy of humans.

Level 7

In the universe we are quite insignificant. We have a beautiful planet and we are not taking good care of it.

Level 7

It always has a calming influence on me. Like when I lie on my back and look up at the stars on a dark night. It makes all my problems and worries seem so small. I love the feeling.

Perfectly nhilistic. we will never achieve anything that is of significance in this universe, so, f#@k it!

It might be worth trying.

Level 6

Possibly the single greatest paragraph ever written. Nobody has ever summed up the whole of human existence more eloquently or concisely before or since.

You said it.

Level 8

Relief.

Insignificance takes the edge off all those save the galaxy expectations.

Level 6

I think of how vast the universe is, yet how connected everything is by a few elements.

Level 7

I feel a sense of unity with the cosmos and humankind. Then I realize how tribal and hateful humankind is, and I think “at least I have the cosmos.”

Inspired. Hopeful. Optimistic.

Level 5

It really humbles me. It amazes me that I am here and breathing, that is enough. Our importance is irrelevant in the vastness of the cosmic soup. So we should not take the here and now for granted. Right?

Awe. I never take the world or the universe for granted.
