Who are you, after all???

I was walking down a lonely road. It was dark, so dark that the next step is a step in faith. You could almost hear the silence......I looked above to see the night sky. What a fabulous sight!!!! Like a black crown decorated with diamond studs all over it. The moon was at its brightest......Shining like a silver sun.

Even as I was walking I thought of the words, GOD tells JOB in HIS famous defense.......

What is the way to the abode of light?
And Where does darkness reside?
Can you take them to their places?
Do you know the paths to their dwelling?

What words!!!! Words so pointed, Words so sharp.......As if, asking man, Who are you, after all??? Or is that what he really meant??? That question kept haunting me......Who are you after all???

Living in a village, which even the GOOGLE does not bother to put it in its map, You sometimes think like a ruler.......Aren't you??? You sometimes mock at the happenings of the world.......You sometimes, think the world is not properly run.........You sometimes, think that the world would have been a better place had you been doing that.........Who are you, after all??? GOD laughs at our thoughtlessness, or rather at our thoughts.

There had been greater people in this world and there will be still greater ones. There were many who conquered the world, or at least tried doing it. There were people, who made the entire world stand up and applaud. Some of them left marks which even the might of time could not wipe out and some of them sacrificed their lives for greater causes......Greater people had lived in tougher conditions. YET!!! still you sometimes say, “GOD I have done the greatest sacrifice in this world, and some times you don't even consider mine”.........Who are you, after all??? God's words are sometimes pungent.......

You know how big the world is??? The sun powerful enough to turn white skin bronze and to coax oxygen from every plant on earth, ranks fairly low by galactic standards. If the giant star Antares were positioned where our sun is – 93 million miles away – the earth would be inside it! And our sun and Antares represent only 2 of the 500 billion stars that swim around in the vast, forlorn space in the Milky way. From our hemisphere only one other galaxy, Andromeda is large enough and close enough (a mere 2 million light years away) to see with the naked eye, twice the size of the milky way and home to half a trillion stars......and these two are only 2 of the 100 billion galaxies likewise swarming with stars.......and yet you sometimes feel like, if you stop, universe will collapse........Who are you, after all??? God repeats the question, again.

Probably, yes!!The world is so big, that GOD has many other duties to do, other than looking at me......Probably, yes!! There are so many in the world who have done much greater deeds than me!!! But, Why should GOD, come down if I am a nobody, my mind still struggles.........And that is not because you are an anybody, but because HE, The maker of the big, perfect world is.........
