Happily less important…

Sometimes when we feel we know something or achieved something extraordinary, we need to stare at the endless night sky or walk in a forest alone. You see, stars and forests have their way of making you feel less important, right away. This is different from the feeling of unimportance that arises from our inferiority complex in human societies.

In the company of stars, looking at full moon, looking at these green leaves on which sun rays dance, we tell ourselves: it is indeed a blessing to be less important, otherwise how else could I have noticed these wondrous miracles that flood my daily existence?
