Purpose, Meaning, and Humanity’s Eternity
Every human forms part of a larger, eternal design. Each person acts like a gear in a clock that never stops. Even if you do not yet understand your purpose, your role still matters. In fact, it carries the same weight as the roles of kings and queens.
Many people believe that limited wealth or influence makes them powerless. However, a clockmaker does not value large gears over small ones. Likewise, the hour hand does not resent the minute hand for moving faster. Instead, every part supports the whole. Each piece contributes in ways it may never see. Without any single part, the system would fail. Therefore, your absence would disrupt the order of the universe, even if you cannot yet recognize your importance.
Purpose, Meaning, and Humanity’s Eternity
Every human forms part of a larger, eternal design. Each person acts like a gear in a clock that never stops. Even if you do not yet understand your purpose, your role still matters. In fact, it carries the same weight as the roles of kings and queens.
Every human is one part of a larger, eternal design – individual gears in a clock that has no end.
Though you may not fully understand your purpose, your part is just as important as the greatest kings and queens of this planet. Some feel as though their temporary lack of wealth or influence makes them powerless to create change. But does a clockmaker favor the larger gears over the smaller? Does the hour hand become jealous of the minutes because it turns slower? Every part has a role in the functioning of a timepiece. Every part supports those around it in ways it may never see. Your absence would undo the Order of our universe, even if you do not realize your importance.
The world began before you and will continue after you, but it will be different because of the decisions you made.
Every generation inherits the world left by the one before it, just as a king inherits the crown of his father. Your pursuit of wisdom and goodness could lay the foundation for your great-great-grandchild’s rise into power – the same descendant who might steer a country from war and save lives by the millions. Did the ancestors of Aristotle or Alexander The Great know who their actions would create?
Though you will never understand the full influence of your actions, the results of your dedication to humanity are still yours to claim.
