This honestly, blew my mind. This is truly something really amazing and interesting. To that one english teacher, he is, genuinely, amazing. On the other hand of things, this should probably go into discussion (what im about to say), but anyways, i completely agree. Things like popularity, money, hierarchy, government, are really, just, nothing, and by that i mean, it's all relative, everything is to our perspective. We see government and things as "bigger" and "more powerful", but are they really? It's a human concept, keyword there is human, even if you have "more power" over another human do you really? All your doing is telling another what to do, or following some simple words on paper, or rather words from other humans. We don't have to follow them but we choose to, making them seem as they are in power. All that is, is, simply stated as you did, you can't get bigger or more important than you are, you are a human, a tiny spec in a infinitely growing universe of stars, planets, and atoms. In reality, we are dust. We are nothing but a tiny dot, a microscopic dot, that is ever growing smaller every second of our lives until we eventually die. But even then are we gone? our memories still last for years, maybe even decades, or eternity. All in all Bodhisattva, this is true art.
