I know I'm writing a lot today. My excitement about Race For Life sort of couldnt be contained! But this just occured to me, and I thought I'd mention it.
We've all been through school, we all know about those bigger mean kids who like to dominate and bully because they feel they can. Ask yourself this though, are they really bigger?
Course, physically they probably are. Physically they probably tower over you, you probably feel like a stick where in comparison they are built like a brick wall. And they have a louder voice, wear better clothes, have a better phone and a little gang of disciples who follow their every move, right? But are they really bigger though?
I'd say, no. They're tiiiiny in comparison. They seem to get their strength, from diminishing the strength of others, and the paradox is that in reality what they are doing here, while it may seem like it makes you weaker, what they are really doing is showing how strong you are whilst showing their own frailties and insecurities in their own lives. You, are stronger because you do not have to feed off others pain to enable you to feel that strength, because you're strong in yourself and that is all there is to it.
Know the expression- "good things come in small packages"? It's very true. Good things do come in small packages. I'm small in comparison with a lot of people, and I know people who are smaller than me and they are the most amazing people I've ever met, and their physical height doesn't slight them at all. Sad and cliched though this might sound I'm going to say it anyway- Size doesn't determine the size of your heart, and the size of your heart is easily the most important thing.
Furthermore, those big bullies might be louder, but consider this. Loud voices are heard, but quiet voices are listened to! After a while all those loud voices of theirs are just going to pale into the background, just become a nuscience that everyone will eventually come to ignore, but the small voices who speak the truth and are full of purity, though quiet, will eventually be listened to intently. So if you feel small in comparison with these bigger people- Just remember all that I've said.
When you think about them, ask yourself- Are they REALLY bigger though? You'll know the answer deep down.
And Keep Smiling Lovelys :)
Love, Tutti-Frutti
