Recently I saw a pic of earth compared to the Sun, then the Sun compared to VY Canis Major (One of the largest known stars). Earth's radius is about 6,400 km and VY's is nearly 1 Trillion km. According to estimates, 12 QUADRILLION Earths can fit into VY. Supposedly we are like a grain of sand compared to Mt. Everest when we are as humans compared to Earth, so on VY Canis we would be close to or maybe even smaller than the Planck Length (Shortest measurable distance).How do I cope with this while in Uni?

Life as we know it is just a 4d shadow left by whatever causes the phenomena of big bangs. You're a flatlander worrying about 3d space when you have no hope of participating. Enjoy what you get in life, and don't ask so many questions.

Accept nihilism into your heart and realize that it's okay for your existence to be meaningless.

I never understood this "we're just a insignificant grain of sand in the universe/we don't matter" crap

The universe might be insanely large but life is more rare than the rarest element, we're matter who one day said "fuck being dead" we're basically fighting the entire universe. We are significant.

The universe doesn't care about you. But it also doesn't care about that time you fucked up. or that time you said something embarrassing. Or the time you did something selfish.

There's no innate purpose, or truth, or meaning. There is no great power controlling your life. So in the end, the most powerful force on your life is yourself. Your life has the truth and purpose and meaning you give to it.

Why is being large all that matters?

You think these are any less impressive because of how small they are? You're tiny compared to things in the enormity of the universe, okay. So what? That's only one way to be relevant or interesting. Humans are pretty fucking impressive. As a species we've made amazing accomplishments and we have plenty other things interesting or noteworthy about us as far as living creatures go. Hell, on a universal scale the fact that we're living creatures at all is pretty damn impressive.
