Are we special?

October 5, 2015 2:00am CST
Do you ever hear the phrases "you are beautiful", "you are special", "you are somebody"??? Things like that that we tell each other in times of despair as a means of consolidation? Well as I get older, I look more and more beyond earth as to see what we really are. My mind drifts through the universe in constant epiphanies that there is much more than us and there is even the possibility that there is life elsewhere. But the fact that we are so small and such a small part of such a big whole, we can't possibly be special. We humans stay in wonderment and perplexity of the small things here on earth, including each other, but do we ever think about the bigger things?

My son used to do that job you are doing working overnite at Walmart stocking. I know it sucks. I want to offer you support here and tell you that yes, you are special. Someone loves you and you are not here for no reason.

I think beauty and uniqueness is in the eye of beholder. So it is hard to say what we are. and what we can do about the life. I personally think that we are special only if we keep moving. if we stop being active, we become stale.
