星辰大海

There are a lot of negative things in the world — a lot of terrible things happening all over the word, all the time, lots of problems that need to get solved. They are miserable and kind of get you down.
But life cannot just be about solving one miserable problem after another. There needs to be things that inspire you, that make you glad to wake up in the morning and be part of humanity.

Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, one of the early Russian rocket scientists, had a great saying: “Earth is the cradle of humanity, but one cannot stay in the cradle forever.”
It is time to go forth, become a star-faring civilization, be out there among the stars, expand the scope and scale of human consciousness. I find that incredibly exciting. That makes me glad to be alive, I hope you all feel the same way.
