What you mentioned about every inch but one... that priceless inch!
That inch within us.... and also the small but still real difference it can make in social change.

That's why this thread is about '...a tiny bit...'

As I see it, the biggest change in giving just a little more may be less in its effect on others than on the one who makes that choice. It changes one's experience of reality.

The biggest change.

Maybe something stupendous!

These things are what people think is important perhaps, but not me. I do not care if something is big or small.

A friend told me about the cicadas... 17 years in the ground just to crawl into the sun for a few days of singing and a bit of nookie, then death.

One cicada of difference, one small song. Such a tiny tiny thing in this whole universe.

It's so true. If everyone just did one small positive thing a day, whether it be a word, a gesture... imagine what our life would be like? I often feel so small and helpless, but I know that I have to keep going, inspiring others to be kind, and compassionate in order to change the world.

Each little cicada is just climbs out of the Earth and sings, it's just a natural thing for them.
