Pale Blue

From this distant vantage point... The Earth might not seem of any Particular interest. But for us, it's Different. That's here. That's home. On it, everyone you love, everyone You know... every human being who Ever was: lived out their lives. Every hunter and forager, every Hero and coward, every creator and Destroyer of civilisation. Every young Couple in love. Every mother and Father. Inventor and explorer. Every Saint and sinner in the history of our Species, lived there. On a mote of Dust... Suspended in a sunbeam. The earth is a very small stage, in a Vast cosmic arena. In our... obscurity. In all this vastness. There is no hint, that help will come From elsewhere. To save us, from Ourselves. This distant image of our tiny world: It underscores our responsibility to Deal more kindly with one another, And to preserve and cherish the only Home we've ever known.
