If that doesn't make you feel a deep connection to the cosmos, I don't know what would. That is much more humbling, and beautiful than any fairy tale humanity has ever come up with*. This is one of the reasons people give to show the "goodness" of religion. It makes people feel connected, a deep connection to the universe we live.
What deeper connection do you want? You were once in a star. Literally...
*Even if this wasn't the case though, I still rather have the truth over some puffed up, sugar coated story that is not true.
And thats why I love the saying "From (star)dust you came to (star)dust you shall return", but not the religious/literal point of view, but a more reasoned way of viewing it.
ReplyDeleteWow, it's so amazing when you think about it. This kind of reminded me of the I heart Huckabees movie lol
ReplyDeleteyeah, i dont get the point of needing a god or gods at all....
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful. I miss you
ReplyDelete@Luis - yeah, where is that from?
ReplyDelete@Mari - haha it does
@Geli - it is a watered down substitute, at best. Nature is way more amazing than we are ingenious.
@Paco - Thanks man :) I miss you too!
