For me, it is the opposite. If the world was small, I would be sad to be a part of a small un-awesome world. Looking at how big the world is makes me happy and excited.
The difference I guess comes from whether you see yourself as a part of the universe or as an observer separate from the rest of the world.
- swombat 12y agoI didn't say it made me sad. I just said it made me (and you) fairly insignificant in the greater scheme of things. Insignificance is awesome. Significance seems highly overrated, more to do with assuaging one's ego than with enjoying life.
- cscurmudgeon 12y agoThe key is to have no ego. That makes any question of significance insignificant :)
