Do you ever watch a film, or read a book about an extremely talented, intelligent ingenious human being and realise how completely insignificant and useless you truly are? I'm not trying to say that anyone is either, everyone has a purpose, and everyone is, in some way or another significant. Everyone has some sort of reason as to why they are here. Some believe in fate, some believe in a higher being, some don't believe at all.
I, myself am agnostic about all three.
I do believe everyone is 'here for a reason' but when I see or read some peoples life achievements I realise, how little I truly am in the scheme of things.
I am not going to be remembered, I am not going to achieve anything that will change the face of humanity. I'm not saying this for pity or for recognition of the things I have done. I'm saying this as a fact.
I do not have the brains to invent something that will be remembered, I don't have the talent to create something timeless and I don't have the patience to try and explain all the thoughts that wander around my head. I wager that somewhere amongst them, something beautiful may be born. I just don't have the words, or the listeners to explain them.
Everything around you was brought to you by the intelligence of another; the computer I write this on, the light I sit under, the bed I lay on. Absolutely every single man made object has come from the thoughts of someone, you most likely have never met, and yet they made a difference. Their names, or faces may be not widely known any longer, but the world is still in dept to them.
I wish that I could make a difference like theirs, I want to be remember for improving humanity, whether it be through music, science, mathematics, english, drama.
I'd like to go back on my previous statement. I am not insignificant, I am not useless- I have just to find my purpose. There is a possibility I have found it, there is the possibility I may never find it.
