In everything you can recognise yourself.
The tiny beetle that lies dead in your path -
It was once a living creature,
Struggling for existence like yourself.
Rejoicing in the sun, avoiding the cold like yourself.
Knowing pleasure and pain, like yourself.
And now it is no more than dead matter
A mere shell
Which is what you will be sooner or later.
So live, love and let live.
In the end there are no winners.
Think of the beetle and
You will see yourself in reflection.
In essence we are all One

All will die someday..
Thanks for sharing Michael...
I've often thought the same things when I see a dying creature or insect. They have a heart, a breath. Sometimes taken away so senselessly by humans. Thanks for this awakening, Michael.
