Looking up one must be struck with the realisation that we are so insignificant, not only at a personal level but also as a species...I look at m31 and think wow our species is probably younger than the light from that relatively close galaxy.....and while all that is washing over you to still except that your time is important and as far as your personal observation is concerned that your existence can only be considered to be eternal because you can not define from recollection when you got here or from observation when you left.
AND such deep thoughts flow easily when astronomy is your game.
