I thought of this article today when Hank Green mentioned that there are more atoms in a grain of sand than there are grains of sand in the world.

Have you seen the clip of the girl who is laying on a lawn then it zooms out to the world, solar system, galaxy, galaxies, universe? And then it goes in reverse all the way back to the girl on the lawn then goes into her veins and as far down molecularly as we currently understand? It’s a small example of infinity being enormous and minuscule.

It’s hard to think about infinity without Maren, literally and figuratively. It’s easier to think about “taking part in the infinite” with her on a smaller scale: one look, one touch…

Thanks Ben
