Your problems are irrelevant.

This is an excerpt from Carl Sagan’s Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in Space. It talks about the photo of the same name, Pale Blue Dot, taken by Voyager I on February 14, 1990. You can also watch a video of it here.
This has helped me a lot in realizing how trivial my worries are. It helped me get over my first major bout of QLC. Love the picture, love the excerpt. You really get a sense of the microcosm that Earth is by reading Carl Sagan’s words.
Our problems, our quarrels, and our lives seem so insignificant when looking at it all this way.
