What thing do you compare yourself?

I used to compare myself to eagles, tigers, lions, etc. But now I just look at myself as a grain of sand, and even perhaps just a speck of dust. Life has taught me many lessons and I have come to realize that life isn't really just about being an eagle or a tiger or even a dragon. We are all part of a bigger whole and for me that's what is important for us to see. Whatever you do will affect others in some way whether we like it or not. You may look at yourself as a mighty man. Other may see you as an idol worthy of adoration. But at the end of the day you are just a tiny speck in the sea of humanity. I guess I just woke up in tranquil sea of realization that my importance doesn't lie in what I do for myself but what I do in relation to the rest of humanity.

I compare my self to a candle so i can be the light that everyone can use when darkness comes their way.
