Perspective

I am one of many small people in my small house

and that small house is of many on a small street corner,

and that small street corner is of many in a small town,

and that small town is of many in the small county,

and that small county is of many in the small state

and that small state is of many in the small country

and that small country is of many on the small continent

and that small continent is of many in a big world


A big world that contains continents

A big world that contains countries

A big world that contains states

A big world that contains counties

A big world that contains towns

A big world that contains street corners

A big world that contains houses, and

A big world that contains many small people


Alone, 

the things in this world are very small,

but small things make big things,

when they are put together


Alone,

we are very small


Together,

we are big, and

we can do great things


Life isn't about fending for ourselves,

Life is about fending for each other

because, can little things make big things

when you don't know who lives across the street?
