DT.. We often don't consider this truth.. we are loved by the Eternal but we are not the center of the universe.. he is. And we, all of us, are part of his glorious plan!

Lyric..often most of humans never consider truths like that for they may be conceited! It takes someone like me who knows his insignificance within the "divine plan'' to declare it! On the other hand though God's gift of Nous elevates Man for allows him to understand! Question: Did I say somewhere that " we are the center of the universe?" I do not think so for none is therefore, I think there is no need to remind me that HE is! Seven decades have taught me that much! Thank you!
