Astonishing. So many emotions throughout. How small we are....how large we are....this intricate balance. The vastness of the universe and the crazy design of life itself. Whew!

How beautiful it all is from a distance. As the film went into the body I got completely left behind by the units of measure - I have no idea what they even are - a picometre - ok so I've found out it is one trillionth of a metre - how do you even measure such small distances? :!:

Mind-blowing :shock: :shock: :shock: When I see that, I get completely overwhelmed thinking about all the minutiae we struggle with every day, when really we are just milli-specks. It just doesn't matter! :lol:

That's what I've meant about the beauty of feeling insignificant. It helps a lot with reducing stress. :57:

How come I never knew that? It's just so cosy. :57:
