Insignificant (Updated with a Silly Title)
As I was opening the front gate to leave for work yesterday, I spotted this tiny fellow. Couldn't resist taking a snapshot of him.
It got me thinking. We are in many ways like this little creature, cast upon a huge world, filled with uncertainties, challenges and obstacles. It is little wonder we are often intimidated into feeling how insignificant and helpless we are. . . hence the lifelong search for meaning.
Oh... and for those with not-so-good eyesight, I've taken the liberty of blowing up the insect, oops, I meant picture (What were you thinking, Annie?) And in case, you're wondering, it's a baby praying mantis.

And on a sillier note, got 'bestowed' with this silly Title off Sherman's blog..

HOW did YOU KNOW I was thinking if you blew up the insect? Jonzz knows Annie too well.... I was going to ask if you accidentily stepped on the bug. I don't like bugs.. *shudder*. SQUASH.. that's my answer to how significant bugs are. tee hee.. They make that icky squishing sound when you "accidently" step on them.
