Planet Earth is estimated to have a lifetime of nine billion years. And we're right smack in the middle of our lifetime. We've been in the universe for 4.5 billion years. So, that should mean something. We should sort of take a look at where we came from and where we are going.

My mom and I would make bracelets and necklaces, and I would sell it in the first, second, and third grades because that was my lunch money.
