TRIUMPH OF SPIRIT IN LOVE, NATURE & ART

How Many Years are in a Light Year? from Gigi at Rethinking Life

https://gigisrantsandraves.wordpress.com/

I watched this YouTube on Gigi’s blog Rethinking Life and thought it so wonderfully clear and so meaningful. This is what I wrote in the comments on her blog…

No one has ever explained it so well. It helps that he makes is visual. It has me awestruck over the hugeness of space. How infinitesimally tiny we are from the smallest life in the depths of the oceans to atoms to the largest on one planet in one solar system in one universe in one multiverse. And yet man found this out. I want to keep this in the back of my mind always when getting upset over something ridiculous or with someone over nothing. To say it really puts things in perspective is to understate the magnificence of it all. Damn, I wish I had the mind to be an astrophysicist. They must be permanently in a state of awe. Again, thank you for posting.

  3. Thanks for sharing. We still have a lot to learn about the universe. But we will never know everything.
    We are part of it, an integral part of it. And this is already a lot.

  4. Thank you for sharing this video, Ellen. He is a wonderful teacher and I wonder what other fascinating things he could teach us. I hope you’re having a great week so far.
