Who are we?
2003-03-01 9:14 p.m.
We are nothing, repeat nothing in this big world. Out of 6 billion over people on this little globe nestled in a certain area scientists dare to call the solar system, we are nothing. what significant changes can we make in life? how many of us turn out big? Are we the next Einstein or Churchill or Genghis Khan? Possibly so. Possibly not? What is one out of so many? Nothing.
Come to think of it, there is actually no fixed guideline or set of rules to measure one's impact on earth or space for that matter.( For your information, this author believes in life on other planets, so don't try to convince him otherwise). No one can purely say Churchill was the greatest leader of all time or Einstein's contribution were extremely significant. Krushchev and Kennedy may have nearly lead the world to total destruction, but by what degree are we to judge them by? What if Hitler wasn't born? No one can say for sure"I am the greatest because..." because simply there is always one greater than you are and others are even further ahead. However, no one is the greatest. No one made the most important or significant discovery nor is there one person who can claim to have shaped history completely.
Anyway, welcome to this diary who ever you are. Let's just say that I am no one and you are nobody. Those who are acquainted with me would know that I prefer to be anonymous everywhere. Just like other diaries, please do refrain form posting any threatening notes or insults. other than that........... enter!
