Scale

The day's last light scales walls of Half Dome in Yosemite, as shadows pursue it in lockstep. The Valley below, formed by natural processes over centuries, millennia, aeons, seems undisturbed by the daily chase taking place high above. This Valley has seen some things. As I sat and watched the darkness ascend the rock face faster than any human climber could, I realized something striking... As old or vast as the Valley might seem, it's still tiny in the grand scheme of the universe. The light rays hitting the wall flew 94 million miles to get here; Sol itself can fit 1.3 million copies of our planet inside it. What's this Valley to the vastness of the cosmos? And time... The countless years it took for those crags and rivers and forests to form via weather and erosion and tromping hikers? That interval is nothing compared to the age of everything that exists.
