What do you think?
I think there is no criterion for importance. The people whom we consider important do not consider themselves important. Only others perceive them to be important. If importance is a matter of perception, you have to first perceive yourself important.
For me to become valuable and important in our society, I believe that it is best to be a good member of the community by being a responsible person. By fallowing the given law and being a good role model in sharing love and concern for our neighbors, we become an important person in the society.
