If I were the Sun
If I were the Sun, a fly could be the Earth.
If I took every man woman and child on the Earth
and turned then into stars like the Sun,
I wouldn’t have enough stars to fill one small corner of our home galaxy, the Milky Way.
In fact, if I took every tree on the Earth and turned it into a star, i would have just about enough stars to fill our galaxy.
If I then took all the stars in the Milky Way like our Sun, and turned each into a galaxy of its own, I would probably have the Universe.
How easily to every person attach a fly, and then imagine this Universe.
Remember that no matter how big the Universe is, for some reason you are always at its centre.
