by Jeffrey Folks, American Thinker:

It seems that our universe is 26.7 billion years old, since the Big Bang at least, and that it stretches for seven trillion light-years in diameter.  Those are just estimates, and it may be that the most recent Big Bang is just one of an endless series of contractions and expansions dating back far beyond our ability to envision.  It seems the universe is practically infinite in time and space, and our lives are just one infinitesimal speck occupying one tiny space on one practically invisible planet.
