That's kinda depressing to think about.
Mankind has the potential, its all about who is strong enough to seize the opportunity of ascension.
We are meaningful, however small we are. Because once mankind reaches the frontier of space we will be legendary. Our empire will encompass the entire galaxy, perhaps even several galaxies if our leaders are ambitious enough.

We are a unique speck, but we're still a speck. We're a dot, on a speck, orbiting a speck, going around a small dust cloud, in a massive universe.
@Timberton size doesn't matter
small things can have meaning,too
AVeryBigNurd: or maybe since we are just a speck, an extremely peculiar speck, we are meaningful?
.. And it's a speck. A speck containing almost all we know. On a dot. We're purely meaningless in the infinite universe.
