An Introduction

(originally posted on Facebook Jan. 22, 2007)
To everybody,
Hi, my name is Seth for those of you that don't know me, which I think you should since this is a facebook profile. But if you don't, welcome, kick off your shoes and stay awhile.
I have been having a lot of thoughts lately and I need a place to put them because my head doesn't really hang on to them for very long. Since I am too lazy to start a blog or a myspace profile or whatever else you can do these days, I decided to use this nifty little notes feature to see if I can't give some of you that decide to read a little insight... maybe even change your mind about something. I do my best with grammer and sometimes things just sound better if you say them with bad grammer. Also if you have seen any of these thoughts before, it is probably just a coincidence.

For my first rant I would like to talk about humans,
The picture is what we think our galaxy might look like if we looked at it from above. Now the location I have pointed out isn't the exact location but I am doing it to make a point. everything you have ever seen (not counting other stars), touched, felt, heard, tasted, smelled, loved, and hated could fit on the tip of this arrow with plenty of room to spare.
So why is it that we think we are so great. Some people say God created heaven and Earth for us. so we have this planet and maybe the solar system. What is the rest for? We think the universe is about 10 or so billion years old because that is the oldest light that has reached our eyes. Thats seems like a lot of wasted space for one little race of people.
In the interest of keeping this short (plus I am late for work) I will wrap up. The next time you think you are the greatest thing in the universe or even the world, I know some of you do, but I still love you, just think about how small we are in all reality. I know this thought isn't really complete but I will most likely have some tangent thoughts off this is the future.
Stay Swinging,
Seth
P.S. I am trying to think of a snappy sign off phrase (such as "Seacrest Out!")so it might change a couple times before I find something I am comfortable with
