I left this as a comment to someone early this year.

As one walked into the tall building, there was a shot from below, showing how he thinks of himself as tall as well, comparing him to the building and showing from the angle that there is not much difference, metaphorically demonstrating the thought in his mind. Upon entering through the revolving door, he feels immediately smaller in the tall domed interior of this gargantuan edifice. It is ironic how from outside looking in, one can see something huge and call it small, but from inside a situation, the magnitude of any action is immense. He climbs the stairs to look at the directory, representing the heartbreaking fact that when you're at the bottom, you can't even gain direction without knowing where to go and pulling yourself closer toward the unknown future and risk getting to the top and falling all the way back down before getting a chance to learn anything. The only difference here is that all large buildings will have a directory, and a man of his apparent stature will know that, and in the life of the fallen, that man may not know of the directory and the life-changing information it keeps.
