every day in 2016, write a sentence or a paragraph or a poem that inspires or appreciates
Neil deGrasse Tyson, your personal astrophysicist, talks about the cosmic perspective, in which you see the earth as a unit, a whole, a wonderful collection of swirls of air, clouds, water, and land and you see it in the enormous background of space with its stars, constellations, galaxies, nebulae. Your challenge, if you accept it, is to find one of the images of the earth photographed by an astronaut or by a spacecraft that shows the earth that way, and to imagine yourself out there looking back at earth but also seeing it in the universe, and let yourself feel whatever you feel watching that. Good. Now write that. Now live that.
