Infinity

This is a very big world. I realised that just now.

About three hours back, i went to have a look at the sites of Guardian and Times magazines. There are lots and lots of stuff out there, i don't know how you will have time to look at it all. There are more magazines like that one, and when you realize that, you see there is no end to it. Like self-knowledge, world-knowledge is also infinite, ever expanding.

It is a bit dispiriting, to say the least.

Here i sit posting some tiny bits, into a very tiny blog, which you and one or two people will read. What is there to get important about? We are not even small fish in this big ocean.

I don't know.

It is like coming out of a well, and seeing that your well is very tiny hole in a big, big world you won't even be able to comprehend.

  1. There is another way of looking at it bas. Every fish has its place in the ocean. There are sharks, Whales and the lot. There also are small and tiny fishes that co-exist. The environment requires both the tiny and big. Never mind what your size is and how far you reach. You have a size and you have reach. Just do it.

  2. That is a very encouraging thought. Thanks. But what i mean is, you have got to be humble. There are really big people here.
