Even if you have to metamorphose
into something less human-like, you are important, just like the toiling Philippine
carabao that ploughs the rice field under the peaking sun, mindless of time, and
its shrinking energy denied of water and rest, or the diminutive ant that with
its marching army scavenges for and carries crumbs heavier than its own body.
Even if you have to be oblivious to
the fact you are a thinking being, you are important. No matter how menial a
thing is, however reduced your cerebral capacity is, you are important, an
integral part of a whole.
Even if those humongous, watchful
eyes towering over you only see the superficial, the skin-deep, you are
important, because you are that essential of a detail, that small mud-brick
that composed of the colossal pyramid.
You little thing, you are
important. Yes, you are. You are greater than all those above you combined. You
are highly appreciated.
