The video is an animation of worldwide air travel where each dot represents a plane during a 24 hour period. One gains a realistic scale of our place in the universe. We are but a speck in the time and space continuum. That perspective can tone down our tragedies if ever we are inclined to take ourselves too seriously. And humility is just that - realizing that we are humus - a speck of dirt. Everything comes from God, everything is for God and all our abilities and opportunities are an extension of God's creative power of which we are but stewards and will be held accountable.
