Extraordinary

When you think about our universe...

How it's built, and how it works.

The sheer physics involved that allow it to be possible.

The fact that it is so perfectly balanced to the point that it strives to maintain equilibrium,

yet if ONE small detail were different, changed somehow... THE ENTIRE CONTRAPTION known as the universe would not work. It would fail miserably.


Then I look at it. With these soft, squishy things in my head that capture light, I see what this universe appears like in color.

Certainly, the vastness of it all could have turned out quite ugly, as long as it all worked right?

But it is not ugly.


It is more beautiful than words can begin to describe. The more we discover, the more beauty we find.

All of it. The Mathematical Artistry.

And...
I think that is extraordinary.
