The mind works in pictures, not words. So, using pictures is like speaking the minds language. Thanks Galen, I just love the way a few pictures can adjust our perception.

So if men are from Mars and women from Venus, than it also give a practical insight that problems on Mars are smaller than the problems on Venus in most cases :-) And if you put Mars-Venus problems in perspective of the universe, they shrink completely .... Marc Nice way of expressing the problem shrinking process!

Oddly, I found myself thinking <em> What's wrong with small and insignificant?</em> Think about the fact that our SUN is a relatively small star compared to the red giants, and in the vast universe it is pretty insignificant. But its influence on us and all life on earth is huge. We may be small and insignificant, but that doesn't mean that we are not valuable. I'm am OK with being a tiny part of the big picture because that's how big pictures are made, lots of tiny pixels. Hi Daniel, that facebook comment really got me thinking also.
