Because it does matter

Willam James once said, "Act as if what you do makes a difference. It does." It reminds me of when I first read Siddhartha by Herman Hesse. There's a moment near the end of the book, where Buddha is crossing the river with the Ferryman and he says to himself, "Every life is fine," and that every life is of great value. It doesn't matter how large or small that we think that we are. Each one of us matters, but it's important not just to say it. It's important to live it.

Namaste'
