I always think we are such rare combinations of molecules. And we are even able to see how precious and rare all lifeforms are. Very likely there is nothing like that out there.

And on top of that we are the only known combination of molecules which theoretically could protect complex life, even beyond the lifespan of earth or even our galaxy. But we don't see us as the ones who could have protected that freak of chance. Instead we bicker and perish and the universe will with high probability never see anything like that again.
