We, however, think we are important, the world will not be able to move without us, the earth will not rotate if we are not on it. Sadly, the fact is that we - who are so indispensable - are not immortal and one day we will have to leave this beautiful world.
Here's something from Albert Einstein that made me introspect. I want to share it here:
Each of us is here for a brief sojourn; for what purpose he knows not, though he sometimes thinks he senses it. But without deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people — first of all for those upon whose smiles and well-being our own happiness is wholly dependent, and then for the many, unknown to us, to whose destinies we are bound by the ties of sympathy. A hundred times every day I remind myself that my inner and outer life are based on the labors of other men, living and dead, and that I must exert myself in order to give in the same measure as I have received and am still receiving.
We need to make our brief sojourn here meaningful...
