Would you rather be whom you’re now – yourself, or a small pebble laying on the ground right under your foot?
And before you answer: “Isn’t it obvious, I want to be myself; above all, I’m a human” let me ask you again: Are you sure? Well, since you insist that I stop right now asking you “stupid” questions, I’ll do my best to prove to you, that you’re wrong. Unless, you’re one of the very few “exceptions” that call the planet Earth home, now and in the past.

Ask yourself: “What is the priceless gift that I posses?” Surely, your answer would be: “Life – to exist.” That’s right. Almost all you do during your lifetime serves one objective only: to live long… and well. Were you to nominate your biggest fear that grows with each passing day, what would you say? “Old age and death.”
So you enjoy your life to its fullest, aspiring, dreaming, achieving, conquering, loving, wasting, consuming, and perhaps… praying sometimes.
And on these rare occasions when somebody close to you “expires” you pause for a moment and ask yourself: “How much longer is there written for me?” What would you give to live 95, 100, or 110 years? Most of us would give everything, just to gain one more day; for “existing” is the first thing that matters for us, everything else comes second!

Enter the humble pebble. It was given the shape and color you see now, in the process of its tumultuous (not unlike yours) existence that spans eons of time. Not that the pebble minds. Born in the volcanic eruption, drenched by rains, scorched by sun, pushed around, trampled on, thrown away, low of the lowest – a small pebble on the side of the road.
It already exists 220 million years. Yet, time has no meaning for this humble, soulless pebble. Why then you, created by God to His image, and striving to rule the World, cry with each second passing? Who would you rather be?
If you want to be at peace with yourself, then abandon the tyranny of time and realize the Foreverness of your Self!
