daily inspiration for october 25, 2020

When you feel overwhelmed by what is happening, take a breath and remember that you are not in this world, you are of this world and there is a reason you are here now at this precise time.

The surface of the Earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean. On this shore we’ve learned most of what we know. Recently, we’ve waded a little way out, maybe ankle-deep, and the water seems inviting. Some part of our being knows this is where we came from. We long to return, and we can because the cosmos is also within us. We’re made of star stuff. We are a way for the cosmos to know itself. ~Carl Sagan
