A Drop In The Ocean

A drop in the ocean.
A single drop
somewhat useless, perhaps even worthless.
But what if every other drop disappeared?
What was left would be valued.

Every
single
thing
has purpose. No matter what it is. No matter how disliked it is. No matter how isolated it is. No matter how common it is. Not one exception.

We are the same. Every human has purpose.
Not one should be disregarded or treated with hateful passion.

We are all drops in the ocean. All similar in a way. All valued in a way. All of us have purpose.

All of us are important.
