I am often brought to a very humble - and rather terrifying - state of just how "insignificant" we all are in the big picture ... time ... space ... history ... the world ... the universe ... you get the idea, right?!
Food For Thought:
1. The 1600's happened, right? Fact. But, I was not alive when they happened, and I didn't know it, however that did not stop them from happening. People lived, loved, fought, drank, sang, made theatre, had babies and died ... and I was not there.
Yup ... so how will I know anything of this earthly existence when I am gone?
2. Think about all of the people you pass on any given day - people you don't know, they're not your friends or family, they're not even co-workers, they are just people. People:
- Walking down the street
- Driving
- At a shopping mall
- In a store
- In an elevator
- At the gym
Now ponder the fact that their lives go on, even when you are not around ... yet you have no proof of that. They were in your life for one brief moment (or several) and then they're gone - but they're not actually gone. Woah!
*More food for thought coming to a blog near you ... soon.
