There's more to it.


There is more to life than ourselves. In the grand scheme of things, we are each so small and tiny that trees grow bigger and longer than us, most of us haven’t traveled outside our own countries, a lot of us have trouble committing to one person, one life. Even I feel like I expect more than what is to come. This is what stories are for. Explosions, buried treasure, far off places, things we could never imagine. It’s hard to separate reality and fantasy the right way. All of us dream. Daydreams, nightmares, dreams for the future. All of these are important on the same level.

But, in short, even these dreams are bigger than us.

We are small and we have to fight to make a change to do anything of a lasting impact.

But is that really true?

Wishing someone a good morning or leaving a tip larger than 15% can easily impact someone. And is this impact not important compared to the environment or poverty? In order to get to the big things, we need to start small. In order to save a thousand people, we need to be able to help at least one. Being positive and well towards someone is just as important as giving to charity or volunteering your time. You really can’t accomplish one without the other.
So, go do something beyond yourself. Something as simple as leaving a bigger tip or holding the door open. Something as large as volunteering your time or donating to a charity.

I hope you have a wonderful day. (:

You are exquisite in every single way.

Peace.

Love.

Live.
