Earth seen from 4 billion miles away, photographed by Voyager 1 on June 6, 1990.
When you see this, you have to get a little perspective. Alone or not, we are a dot in the Universe.
We are a tiny, shiny circle, lost among zillions of stars. And here we are, fighting, discriminating, worrying about our neighbor's new car.
How stupid and pointless is that?
That little point is our ship, and it's our prison. We can't get out of here; at least for now. And here we go, destroying forests, contaminating the air, ruining our home. Jeopardizing our survival.
How's that possible?

What difference does it make?
Please, read the original post about this, with the photo: Perspective... And think about it.
