INSIGNIFICANCE.

Have you ever wondered of the insignificance of it all?

You and I are the insignificance among 7,000,000,000 other people on this planet.

Our planet is an insignificance amongst the countless trillions of planets in this galaxy.

Our Sun is an insignificance amongst the countless billions of stars in the galaxy, too.

Our galaxy is also an insignificance amongst the countless billions of galaxies in the universe.

We are - in fact - as insignificant as any grain of sand.

And yet we each of us expect to be taken seriously, simply because we feel the world owes us that.
