Sometimes I climb high above the city
To see all the lights shining there so pretty
I think of the millions of lives going on
At this present moment, and those come and gone
And it makes me float free
To feel how small my life must be
“Small” by Lamb
What Sound
Whenever you face something big, remember how small you are.
I know it sounds strange.
We all live at the centre of our own world. From there, every decision and roadblock looks enormous. It looks like life and death.
If you ever feel trapped by your decisions, go somewhere with a view over the city. Look at the countless lives unfolding in front of you.
Yours is just one of billions on the planet. Your decision, one of unfathomably many.
So why not dream and live as big as you can?
When you’re that small, life changing actions aren’t much bigger than eating cereal or eggs for breakfast.
Size does matter, but not in the way you think.
