Ah, but then you consider that there's a distinct possiblity that out of those 100 billion stars in each of those 100 billion galaxies that only here, just here, did a bunch of chemicals form specific chains of molecules in such a way that their inherent properties caused them to become significently more attacted to each other to form distinct shapes, progressing towards increasingly more ordered forms until BAM life could have been said to have started, progressing from primitive bacteria to multicelled organisms to the start of each of today's species plus a whole lot more, to the point where a species evolved the capacity and capablity to understand and be amazed by the wonders of the universe.
And then you remember that some are using this gift to write Doctor Who/My Little Pony fanfiction.

Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.
