I sat in the backyard of my daughter's house and looking at the greenery with big trees small trees and bushes . As i am looking at the waving branches of the trees and occasional falling of leaves suddenly i have realized the closeness of a humanbeing's life with that of a leaf.

we are all like leaves on the tree of universe. I do not know whether the tree knows that the leaves are there or not and how many leaves and branches it is having.Same way the Universe may not be aware of the human existence.The leaf it self, is a universe in a way as it contains so many things with in itself.It is attached to the tree branch by a stem which is so delicate that it may fall of by a big wind or by a big shaking of a tree or by birds or by animals.It may get pests it may be eaten by a worm/bug and get infected .It may live its full life and fall off from the branch in normal course.How similar to the life of us buffeted by the triumphs and travails in course of our journey.

Can we realize that we are the universe by our self like leaf and at the same time the most minute part of a big Universe which is like a Giant tree which is not aware of the existence of a leaf but at at the same time gives sustenance to it ?
