“The atoms, the molecules in your body, are traceable to the crucibles in the centers of stars that manufactured these elements over its lifespan. When unstable, on death, exploding its enriched guts across the galaxy. Scattering it into gas clouds that would ultimately collapse and make a star and have the right ingredients to make planets and people. Which means we are part of this Universe. Not only are we a part of the Universe, but the Universe is in us. That’s beautiful.”
