It’s amazing how a single cosmic event can bring humanity together. I almost missed it and a chance to take in the sublime.

As people created in the image of God we remain divided. As long as we walked the earth we have lived in tribes and fought over land. In recent years tribal affiliation has intensified with the weapons of critical race theory and strong political alliances.

We focus on skin colour and other trivial matters and forget we are earthlings orbiting around a star.

The eclipse reminds us of our place in the universe and how small we are. It’s humbling to acknowledge there are forces and systems greater than us.
