Epiphany !


Human beings... As much as we are all amazed with their brilliance, how do we know we would be less amazed if we were ants ? Or elephants ? or eagles ? Let's take the last one as an example. Eagles have wings and they know how to fly without consuming 12 liters per kilometer ! You may get over excited about what I just wrote and share it on your twitter or put it as your Facebook status, but for sake of argument, when a monkey jumps up and down and claps its hands, how do you know what he does is not just a similar reaction to an external event that triggers his excitement ? It takes a human to know there is no god for elephants! How do you know being an elephant can explain whether human beings have a god or not?
How well Rumi could have explained the story of life with the story of "The Elephant and the Blind Men"?

I wish my grammatical errors haven't contaminated my epiphany !
