Small Things Help Too
Today I fed the birds.
Sometimes the world can feel
like one horrible ball of pain.
If you're like me, you ask yourself,
what can I do?
What can I possibly do?
Some days we find big things to do.
Serve the needy.
Feed the hungry.
Give to a good cause.
As I watched the birds scamper
around the yard, eating the seeds,
my heart rate slowed,
my brain calmed
and for a moment,
the world
felt peaceful.
It wasn't a big thing.
Not even close.
But the change
in my world
felt
BIG.
There's always
something we can do,
isn't there?
Today I fed the birds.
And today the birds fed me.
