When I go for a drive I like to pull off to the side
Of the road, turn out the lights, get out and look up at the sky
And I do this to remind me that I'm really, really tiny
In the grand scheme of things and sometimes this terrifies me
But it's only really scary cause it makes me feel serene
In a way I never thought I'd be because I've never been
So grounded, and so humbled, and so one with everything
I am grounded, I am humbled, I am one with everything
(I Like Giants, Kimya Dawson)
There are times when I feel so small, so insignificant.
And, to be honest,
it feels nice
because
We're not as complex as we think.
Don't you see?
Our burden is that we are what we are.
