Somewhere in the universe, a pale blue dot exists. On the map of the universe, one mere pen mark the color of the sky lies, just a mere speckle on the confetti that is the universe. What is this dot, this little insignificant mark?
Earth.
We really take for granted how small our planet is in comparison to the galaxy. We let our insignificant problems loom over us as if the universe were collapsing in on itself, when really, we are no more than a crumb on the buffet table that is the universe.
Perspective is the key. If we let things get too out of hand, and we forget that every man has a purpose, we are merely fooling ourselves. Next time something seems to impossible to bear, think optimistically: I am just a small part. I'm just lucky to be a part of such a beautiful, intricate universe.
