I did that with my girl last night actually.

Anyway, I consider this all the time, and realized that we aren't significant in any grandscale, but that's not any reason to not live life full.

Our perception is too limited to look beyond what we are told to believe. We place too many mental boundary on our minds, and after time passes those boundarys become invisible and become part of our perception. I believe the only way to actually come close to looking beyond, and expanding our perception is to choose the spiritual path. To first be able to look at our lives and the earth and try to understand it, otherwise we are trying to jump steps. We first must understand ourselves, and why we think the way we do before we expand our perception to unviversal. - or so thats what i think.. O.o

We are germs in the eyes of the universe. We think that we are advanced and are in control, but all of our species and history could be wiped out just as easily as the bacteria on our hands when we wash them. We are truly insignificant.
