A Daily Prayer

Let me remember the size of the the universe, and my size within it, and my role as a part of it, in the set of all things.

If the Sun were the size of an orange, Earth would be a grain of sand 30 feet away.
Alpha Centauri, the next closest citrus fruit, would be 1,243 miles away. (Which is about the driving distance from Seattle to San Diego)
It would be 78,000,000,000,000 miles to the edge of the universe.
If the Sun were the size of an orange and Earth were a grain of sand.

The Milky Way has 300,000,000,000 stars. It is an average sized galaxy.
And it is just one of 100,000,000,000 galaxies in the visible universe.
