The Substance of This Life is Wonder...
True that bro, and these are pictures of the stuff that we can see, imagine what else lay out there beyond our senses. When I look at pictures like the ones in this thread I imagine what other kinds of lifeforms there may be living on distant worlds, or swimming in deep blue seas? What knowledge has been amassed at the other end of the universe, what epic battles have been waged or kingdoms built along the celestial moons of forgotten worlds? In the scheme of things man is a faint whisper in a black hole, we have lived and we are here but so is an entire universe.
The most beautiful things in the universe
are the starry heavens above us
and the feeling of duty within us.
~Indian Proverb~
