Seeking distinction

I took my time-travel machine back to the second day of time. Rocks were flying by in a propulsion effusion from the previous day’s Big Bang.

I asked one large rock where it was heading.

The large rock said, “I’m hoping to find a galaxy where I can reside as a planet of great distinction.”

I asked by what name it would be called.

The large rock said, “Urth.”

I said that was where I had time-traveled from.

The large rock said, “Tell me, am I to be as great as I aspire to be?”

I said yes, but that the planet would go unnoticed because it would be populated by peoples that were also aspiring to be noticed.
