Of course, Carl Sagan is a personal hero of mine. The 80s TV series “Cosmos” left a deep impression on me when I viewed it as an eager, imaginative 10-year-old. I know that when God speaks to me, he speaks with the voice of Sagan. I mean, Kermit the Frog and Carl Sagan both share a similar vocal quality and this is probably another reason why I like Sagan so much.
Here’s a clever musical tribute I might have posted before:
And another by the same person:
Of course, the latter video illustrates that we are all related, every living thing on this planet shares a common ancestor, which is pretty mind-blowing. So when you kick the dog, you are kicking yourself. Then look up and see the stars, and the light that has travelled millions of years to your eyes, and you are both looking back in time and at your own origin. For we are all made of star stuff.
Have a great weekend thinking on that!
