Alive in This Universe

The universe is a big place

And everything that happens in it happens for a reason

It all works together perfectly to keep us alive

And yet we find it boring


We take it for granted, this big old Universe

With its stars and planets and galaxies

All working together in perfect harmony

And yet we find it boring


We complain about the weather

And the traffic and the noise

We don't stop to think about how amazing it is

That we're here at all
