It's the little things that count, right?
It's easy to have big plans. Dreams. Fantasies. Righting wrongs. Addressing injustice. Ending poverty. World peace.
Big dreams usually lead nowhere. They begin and end with the dreamer. Hurting no one. Helping none.
Big dreams are easy. But small deeds? Now there's a challenge.
Stopping to open a door, pull up a seat, yield in traffic. Thinking of others, not of self. Slowing down. Smiling. Sharing. A kind word. A pat on the back.
As I get older, I realize just how significant these small deeds can be. They are the mortar between the bricks. The seeds of world peace.
