This past weekend, my son and I watched the movie Horton Hears A Who on cable TV.





We had a blast with the said movie and I highly recommend it as a family-entertainment-cum-bonding movie. The movie's storyline is based on a children's book story by Dr Seuss'.

Here are the lines that stuck with me and explained to my 6-year-old son about:

Said by Mayor of WhoVille:

What if our world is a speck sitting on a flower? And a big elephant is holding it?

Said by the elephant Horton:

What if they're not small? We are just...B-I-G?

Indeed each one of us is just a dot in this big big world and maybe a thrillionth of a dot in this vast universe.

If each person will see himself/herself as just a dot in the universe (or that there's something bigger and all-powerful than you are), then maybe there will be no conflicts in the world.
