Whenever I'm down, perhaps because I've read too much news, or thought too deeply about the stupidity, cruelty and hubris that roams freely in our world, these type of thoughts are what pass through my head. I close my eyes and zoom out until I am a little speck in space, looking down at the big ball floating around in a vast nothingness, and I somehow feel both better and worse. Better, because I get to distance myself from whatever is going on down there that I'm not responsible for, and worse, because there aren't enough people doing the same.
