Made of Stars

“The cosmos is within us. We are made of star-stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself.”
-Carl Sagan
I love this idea and explore it often in my work. Our bodies are composed of ancient elements from distant space that weave a thread through all things. It’s a gigantic thought and I take great comfort in being a speck of dust within it. It makes traffic and email and taxes feel like nothing at all. It’s a truly magical thing to sit with that thought.
