The World Revolves Around You

We are told many times to think of others in our world. To know that we are not the only things in the Universe and that there is so much more around us than what first appears. To understand the difference and the fine line between selfishness and selflessness. Constantly are we reminded that we are not the centre of the Universe and that there is always more to experience. We are always told we are not the Sun and things do not just fall into orbit around us. But what if it did? What if the world really did revolve around you? What then?

Would you be talking literally and calling yourself the size of the Sun? What if that one thing everyone says can not be true can? Suddenly things fall into place. Every tiny little incident around the world is an opportunity for you to experience something life-changing. All those conversions you 'inadvertently' hear are there for a reason and not just to break up the hour tram ride from Flinders Street Station to Burwood. Perhaps you can not control what everyone does but why should that mean it does not happen because of you? Every creation, every technological advancement was all for you. Every war and every rebellion was fought in your name. So the next time someone tells you the world does not revolve around you, you ask them why.

The universe is here and it is here for you, see you tomorrow.
