    <content type="html">&amp;nbsp;Hey.&lt;div&gt;You exist.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Take a moment out of your day and think about that.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Look around you at this world - at the trees blowing in the wind, watch you move your own arm, flex your hand, take a deep breath.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;You exist.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Let that sink in.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Too many people take life for granted and never take a single moment to realize the true miracle that is themselves and their own life.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Every breath you take is a miracle of nature.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Your thoughts, your dreams, your goals - all are miracles.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Science can tell us where those come from - the brain - but it can't tell us why.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;You and me - we're miracles. According to science, the possibility of our existence and the intricacy of our universe is almost - if not entirely - impossible.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And, yet, here we are.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A tiny speck of dust in a vast and seemingly empty and lifeless vortex of space and time.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Suddenly your problems fade away into the back of your mind. They seem so small. They are small. We are but particles on a speck of dust.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But we're here. We exist. We think, we breathe, we feel.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Just think about that.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=myvoice&amp;ditemid=11481" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
