A Question Of Scale

 

A mite is travelling up the margin of my page;

a full stop going on a journey.

I assume it has purpose, but what can I know?


I’m reading that Stephen Hawking said

“the universe appears designed”, by which he meant

it’s strikingly well suited to existence of life.


Which makes me wonder about scale:

how small are we?

Are we blindly travelling up the margin of someone’s page?


It's worth mentioning that Hawking's views on what was haening in the universe changed radically subsequent to this comment.
