A collaborative search for wisdom, at Middle Tennessee State University and beyond... "The pluralistic form takes for me a stronger hold on reality than any other philosophy I know of, being essentially a social philosophy, a philosophy of 'co'"-William James
We really are just specks floating on a rock in space. It is kind of like 'Horton Hears a Who.' Just because we are practically nothing in the span of the universe doesn't mean we are insignificant in our world. Sure once we die the sun will rise and the world will keep spinning,, but we will also leave behind others whose lives we were significant in. Our existence, no matter how minor, is significant to some degree.
