Overwhelmed By Space
Its called Cosmic Vertigo and you aren’t alone.
Have you ever felt overwhelmed by space?
It can be dizzying when you think about the size of the universe compared to yourself. Or the fact that everything that keeps you alive hangs in perfect balance, based on our planet’s position.
Perhaps you look at the stars at night and feel like you are being sucked toward them. Like you are being consumed by the expanse around you.
The concept of gravity seems elusive and you wonder why you don’t just float away. Or maybe the fact that the air you breathe is just available to you without you doing anything to deserve it. Can you trust that?
If these feeling and thoughts are yours, then know you are not alone. This is a normal reaction to space and all that is beyond our atmosphere.
It’s called Cosmic Vertigo.
Reality check
For most of us, it is hard to fully accept or understand things we have not actually experienced.
Maybe I have just made you aware of our place in the universe. If so, welcome to the club. In some ways, we should all look to the sky and be stunned of the immense size of the cosmos.
