“Look at the stars. It won’t fix the economy. It won’t stop wars. It won’t give you flat abs, or even help you figure out your relationship. But it’s important. It helps you to remember that you and your problems are both infinitesimally small and conversely, that you are a piece of an amazing and vast universe.”

― Kate Bartolotta

Apparently, Kate is a wellness cheerleader, yogini storyteller, and self-care maven, whatever that means. She also writes, books and for various publications.

The stars can make us feel small and unimportant but, as Kate so rightly says, we are part of the whole, connected and separate, as important and as necessary as every other part of the universe.

PS: I love coffee. BuyMeACoffee, leave a message with a date and time and we can share it, remotely, at the same time, and think about the Cosmos.

In the meantime, take care of yourself and if you can, someone else, too, because as Adam Smith said, “we naturally desire not only to be loved but to be lovely”.
