When Little is Large

This is a rambling of mine, if you don’t want to hear it, feel free to skip it!

Sometimes, although it may not be true, I feel like the only thing people care about anymore is their new cell phone. Or the latest app for their new cell phone. What happens when phones are not in style, when you are a total freak if you have one, are you going to pay for the next thing, even if this phone fills all your needs? Possibly the only thing some kids care about is spending all their time musing and pouring all over the fact that on their last test they got a 98 instead of a 100. Have you ever thought that after you graduate, you might look back on your life and wonder why you never went somewhere with your friends, why you never remember having a really good time, why the only conversations you remember were about school, and why you wonder what to do now with your life because you don’t have that goal of having the best grades? I don’t mean that I disagree with working hard for something, having goals, or being dedicated! What I don’t believe in is picking something to believe in that fades or changes. You will not spend your whole life in school and there is always a new kind of phone coming out! It’s not just phones and school, it could be clothes, money, popularity, or many more!   The only thing is I wonder if anybody besides me and a few other people ever stop and notice the small stuff or if somebody else’s face is not illuminated with a screen. I’m guilty of this too, right now I’m indoors on a computer!! Just look at these pictures:

Well, you probably know how tiny humming birds are! 😀

This lizard was the size of my pinky, (Including his tail!) he's grown by now!

 

A really tiny butterfly.

A strawberry about the size of a marble!

Sometime this week I want you to notice something small and amazing and talk to a friend of yours about your life and the small and amazing thing you found! Share what you found if you want!

This little plant was the size of a quarter. ( Was as in when I took the picture! )
