The perspective quotient

We're born dreaming. Whether big or small, our dreams belong to us and somewhere even though each one of us is such a dot our tiny dreams make a difference somewhere. We as humans have a very symbiotic relationship.
"You are more than the Earth, though you are such a dot:
You can love and think, and the Earth cannot!
This simple but beautiful poem by William Brightly Rands is so true. Love is one of the best things yet it's so mundane.

There are so many things happening in the world, so may great, revolutionary, scary, grotesque, horrendous things happening. Why be stuck to the hearth?

Someday, I'd like to look beyond myself, beyond my possessions, beyond my lust and want to look at the world with a larger perspective because this sphere that I'm lucky to be existing on is so interesting. I want to see the larger picture because now from where I'm stand the picture is just too small. Haha, how lame can I be? I'm talking about wanting a larger perspective and I'm still writing about myself. These contradictions of life are so amusing.
