About "Life from Time-Space"

This portfolio is about my very personal interest and contemplation on ‘Life from Time-Space’.

My interest is in time and space. The interest is not only the progress of science but also the fundamental of human beings. I have questions like ‘Who am I?’, ‘Where do I come from?’. Us, human-beings have been considered the center of universe since the Modern era. But let’s think differently and change perspectives by looking at ourselves from the universe. We are not actually the center of the universe. We are just in the flow of substances. If we are able to see ourselves from the perspective of outer space, we would be more humble and have more respect for other lives. We would be more cordial to each other and have more dignity for ourselves by recognizing that it took a long-long time of the harmonious universe order for us to be present. This recognition is very important and could become the words of comfort to cope with daily traumas we face.
