Cosmos
Endless expanse of openness
Fathomless depth and distance
Incomprehensible in detail
Immense in proportion
Floating in the midst of eternity
Humanity
Minute but not obscure
Small but not insignificant
Limited in understanding
Ethereal in spirit
Temporarily confined to time
Divinity
Beyond comprehension
Embodiment of goodness
Transcendent in being
Infinite in wisdom
Originator and center of life

Wow!
Wow, Katie, I just Iove all that you have captured in the simplicity of this piece! And I love the custom background that you have placed with it as well... It all fits together so very nicely! Who would have thought that "The Great Beyond" could be described so very eloquently in so few words as these? I sure didn't!
So nicely done! Good luck in the contest.
