Sometimes I go all panicky thinking about how big the world is.

Looking at a globe with ds, pointing out where stuff is and I look at the USA or Asia or Africa and start thinking about who lives on this blank bit here or there. Places that are too small or unimportant to fit on general maps. How many people are living there, what are they doing right now? Do they ever wonder about my little unimportant part of the map? So many people that I will never meet or know about it. Leading to the existential crisis of what the point? Where does the universe end? Where does it begin? What's outside it? Why, just why???? it's all a bit much for a Sunday afternoon.

I had a bit of an existential crisis when I discovered that in about 3 billion years Earth won't exist because the sun will have swallowed it up as it expands and dies...or something like that.

I'm not sure if it's worth doing Slimming World now

Am I the only one that finds all of that quite comforting, not scary?

It takes the pressure off, all of that stuff would keep going regardless of what I might do. In the cosmic scale of things I don't matter so all I can do is help myself and those around me and nobody can really do more or less than that. It is an equaliser.

Haha-I have found my people!! Totally get everything previously posted.

ego we have a Peters Projection wall map. Looking at it made me realise why it too Michael Palin SO long to cover Africa in pole to pole. Even the USA is quite dinky.

I sometimes look at the people in my photos I took in crowded Delhi and get in a flap about their hundreds of individual lives and their own triumphs and disasters.

My grandmother TOTALLY freaked out when she heard that on the news and we were going "Three billion years, nan. THREE BILLION - not tomorrow."
