“I believe in the greatest strength in the smallest things”, Chris said.

“What do you mean by that?”, I curiously asked. “I am an actor”, Chris said. "And when I go to auditions, I am actually always super afraid!

So, what I do to counter this is:

I put things into perspective.

I imagine the stage, me standing there.

I imagine the audience, their perspective at the stage.

Then I imagine the theatre building from the outside.

Then I imagine the city as a whole, me, still on that stage.

Then, I go further and imagine the borders of the district,

and of the land,

and of the country,

and of the continent,

and, ultimately, of planet Earth,

and I realise:

I am small.

I am so, so small. Once I realise how small I am, my fear vanishes.

When you realise how small you are, you can see your actual strength.”

I tried this exercise of flying from Chris’ perspective from the stage to the audience to the theatre building to the city to the district to the land to the country to the continent to the planet. After recovering from this mind-boggling experience, I saw what we can see here now:

Chris’ smallest is the dark blue starry night sky, which allows us to look at planet Earth. The smallest already is so, so small. It is a frame putting things into perspective. At the same time, what gets put into perspective, what the smallest frames, gets strengthened. How? At the mundane level, just by beig framed. A frame holds and gives strength. At the universal level, whatever we put into perspective is being held by the whole universe symbolised by the smallest - the stardust we are all made of and come from.

Hold it up and you will see. It reminds us of how small we are, and how strong we are being out on the stage of this world.
