A Mere Drop

We are just a drop in the ocean, merely a drop; but we are an important drop. It's easy to feel lost. Even in a city of millions surrounding us, we can feel a loneliness that knows no depth. We are cast adrift and have no moorings to hold us to anything. In the great society we live in that places a heavy emphasis on importance, we can feel we have no place. Yet, if we consider the facts carefully, we bring an importance to that ocean. We touch the lives of others, often without even knowing it. Even if we were not important to others, we are important to ourselves and this is enough. Take pride in yourself and do not worry how others see you, only on how you see you.
