What am I?
I am one human being out of the seven billion that live on Earth.
Earth is just one planet out of the eight in our solar system.
Our solar system is just one out of the one hundred billion solar systems in this galaxy.
This galaxy is just one out of one hundred billion galaxies in the known universe.
You are the only you in existence.
You have the power to create.
You have free will.
You can choose your role in this world.
You can chose what direction you go in.
You can chose what you wear.
What you do.
What you say.
What you love.
What you hate.
You have the ability to think.
To feel.
To hurt.
And to be.
You may think you are insignificant, but you are you.
And that is exactly what this universe needs.
And that is exactly what this universe needs.
Take hold of who you are and the time you have on this planet. Do all you want to do. Be all you want to be. And don't ever let the scale of the universe drag you down. Instead, remember, "the entire universe is inside you." Don't stop. Don't wait for anything. Who knows how long we will be here for? Who knows how long our earth will be here for. On one of the other seven planets we share our solar system with, Mars, scientists recently discovered magnetism in old, volcanic rock on the surface. This proves that once, Mars, much like our very own planet, had a magnetic field around it. Mars, once upon a time, could have been a planet just like ours. With a magnetic field, it could have had an atmosphere, protected from solar storms and been capable of sustaining life. And then its magnetic field disappeared, leaving the surface of the planet to be stripped by the waves of cosmic power that surge through the universe. Here on earth, our magnetic field is rapidly losing power. Are we next? Are we to become a barren, lifeless planet? And if so, does it really matter? Our planet is just as insignificant as each of us are. It is just one piece of the infinitely growing and changing cosmic puzzle. As our earth has a magnetic field emanating from its core, we too, each have a powerful field emanating from our hearts. We die, and our magnetic field flickers out. Our earth, too, is mortal. We are each our own planet, our own universe. Keep that in mind next time you feel insignificant. Because, if you believe our planet is so important, remember, you are a planet too.
You are nothing; you are everything
You are you.
And you won't be here forever.
