Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world. -Archbishop Desmond Tutu
The Archbishop was inspired by something and was referring to, as it seems to me wishes and dreams. All the little things in life add up to the grand sum of your greatness in the world. No matter where you are…that means whatever your situation, no matter insignificant you feel or how horrible you think your life is going today or in the past. I guess the cynic side of me must be overrun, at least in the fact that I am sure that things can reach positive change, just as I have faith that people can make positive change. It’s more that just setting your mind to it and working hard but tweaking all the little intricacies of your existence. Be not afraid to look around and push yourself to do, even if they are tiny things, such as recycling all your plastics. If enough people recycle their plastics the world would be a less poisonous place and instead of overwhelming the world with waste the earth would be freer and cleaner for all. Overwhelm the world with the little things you do, get people to follow you or expand on your seed of an idea. We can overwhelm the world with the dreams that we all have inside us and the tiny things can add up to one huge chunk of change.
