Everybody needs his memories. They keep the wolf of insignificance from the door.

One must explore deep and believe the incredible to find the new particles of truth floating in an ocean of insignificance.

Joseph Conrad

Men are never duly touched and impressed with a conviction of their insignificance, until they have contrasted themselves with the majesty of God.

John Calvin

[simpleman193]

I know as men we are supposed to be self suficient and all, and I don't reject that, I still believe in striving in that direction.

But if there's anything I feel I keep learning as I age (I'm not that old I know) is how flawed we all are, we try to be everything we want and most of the time we fail and want someone or something to come tell us or make us feel like it's okay, and it really is.

Plato used to say that though perfection is unatainable, it gives us something to strive towards, a direction to grow in life. And I think that's all there is to it, no one person will ever be a perfect man or woman, but it is who we become in the pursuit of that.

It is the way, not the destination, and who we become and what we learn along the journey. I guess what I mean to say is that what lifes been teaching me, is about my own insignificance, and I'm humbled by it.
