I am standing on the beach, facing the waves and holding my 3 year old in my arms.
The infiniteness of the ocean merging into the horizon and the magnificence of the morning sun are working their magic.
I am blissfully enjoying my own insignificance in their immensity.
Out of the blue, this Steve Jobs quote about making a dent in the universe crosses my mind.
How shallow of us humans - I mumble inside, trying to discard that thought and submerging myself back in the vastness of the universe in front of me.
Suddenly, a strong receding wave pulls away enough sand from beneath my feet to unsettle my balance.
As I struggle to regain my composure, the epiphany dawns on me.
Perhaps, the universe is designed for dents. It won't be beautiful if not for dents.
The sea in front of me was constantly trying to dent the shores, making wonderful waves in the process. The sun-rays were cutting sharply through the clouds, spreading a riot of colors in the sky.
And, my lovely wife standing behind me was able to wonderfully capture this beautiful moment for eternity - because someone tried to make a dent in the universe by putting cameras on phones!
