I don't fully understand your point. However, it has been said that most galaxies are all expanding from each other. That is, even an observer in another universe would see all the galaxies (unless there were local attractions) expanding away from him. This leads to the trick question,

"What is the center of the universe?"

"Everywhere."

At least that is what a very intelligent friend of mine said.
