All of the universe is as important as any other. We're all a part of the whole which supports the rest. It all formed from the same event and the same energy.
There is a quasar known as ULAS J1342+0928. It is 13+ billion lightyears away. It is 800 million times more massive than our sun and 40 trillion times more luminous.
How does my existence 'support' this quasar?

Why should the universe not be like a quasar, of which there are countless more than people and who have unfathomably more impact on it?
Stars are burning out all the time. I'm sure the part of the universe that is closer to a quasar is highly effected by it. It has it's place in the universe as I have mine. My family depends on me. I depend on the one who sustains the universe. I don't see why a quasar is more important to the universe than a human being or anything else. It's just a functioning part of the whole universe.
