When life gets challenging and problems are piling up, I think of this…

This picture was taken by the Hubble Space Telescope carefully focused on the darkest emptiest small section of space roughly the size of a pin-head held at arms length against the night sky over a 10-day period during Christmas of 1995. That small dark empty pin-head size section of space shows between 3,000 to 10,000 galaxies in it. Each Galaxy is thought to contain 100 billion stars with upwards of 160 billion alien planets. That's a minimum of 480,000 billion alien planets in one of the darkest emptiest pin-head sized sections of space scientists could find. Trying to imagine how large space actually is, and how many pin-head size sections create the total night sky, and how unimaginably large the number of galaxies like ours is with planets like we have in our universe helps me realize how very small my worries actually are and encourages me to have hope, do the best I can where I am, and look forward to the future of all things everywhere. It's humbling and comforts me somehow.
