I have found that saying to myself "the cosmos love you and that's enough" kind of solves all my problems that aren't really problems. It makes sense why this kind of idea works out so well for the Christians -- it's the best balancing act. Thinking of your life, especially positively, in terms of the cosmos helps you maintain sight of the big picture.
More importantly, it helps you not be so dependent on any one thing. To me, when I think about how the cosmos love me, I am thinking about how no matter what, at least one positive thing is happening in my life. If I weren't thinking of the love I'm receiving in terms of the cosmos but maybe instead if I said to myself "well, your friends love you, you get good grades and your parents are proud of you," I would be screwed. What if one those things stopped happening? Even for a day? I would feel significantly less loved, and that would suck. However, when I say to myself "the cosmos love you, and that's enough," then I can feel loved by sunny weather and a good cup of coffee and my professors and kittens and anything and everything.
If the cosmos love you, you can never lose because chances are there's always something, any one or more aspect of your life, loving you and giving you something positive. The cosmos love you, each and every one of you. And it's enough.
