Joseph Campbell age 80 says to Bill Moyers, “That’s where we’re at kiddo, you are infinitely small and infinitely important in that you are one with it all, and it begins inside of you.”
If you’re not sure of your insignificance, try standing on a pier in a storm with trashing wind and rain overwhelming you. With water on three sides, and the wind powerful enough to knock you over, and the water strong enough to take your life, you will appreciate how small you are. And you are powerful because God is within you. And your power is in your ability to hear the still humble voice inside guiding you, to listen be receptive and follow its direction. Ram Dass says, “You are like one dot of light. It is only one dot against the darkness of a night’s sky, and every dot matters.”
