In a world where there's always something to be put down by or feel bad about, it's deeply moving to me that it took people leaving it to help us all appreciate it a bit more. It's us!

Whenever I feel overwhelmed, it's always been useful to remember how small earth really is in the grand scheme of it all, but with this mission, I've been thinking about how we really are a miracle! We put people in space, and took a picture of all of us together! I'm not sure how many other habitable planets are out there, so how cool is it that we have this one?

So much of our lives we spend caught up in the motions of the day to day, so I feel like remembering that we are all from the same planet, from the same, universal roots, is deeply comforting.

So here's this painting I did, inspired by the Artemis ll mission. Its not very good, I won't lie, but this mission has already made me cry several times so I made art too. Take that.

Its just, this whole mission and how these amazing humans have spoken about their experiences in space from such personal perspectives has been so wonderful to see, and a great reminder to me that at the core of everything, we, as humans, just love each other. We will always choose each other, as Christina Koch said. It's universal.

God I love people so much, thank you Artemis ll for restoring like, all of my faith in the earth and beyond.
