Good Things Come In Small Packages


As a child, I was frequently reminded that good things come in small packages. I think it was becasue my Mom and Grandma were barely over five feet tall. But over the years, I have come to appreciate their wisdom on a larger scale.


Size is all about context and perception. What I see as small might appear huge to someone else. A sailboat looks large if you only have a rowboat. But it is just a speck on the vast open sea. Your heart is only about as big as your fist. But it can hold enough love and compassion for everyone in the entire world.


If I could sit down with Mom and Grandma today, I think I would see if we could amend their words of wisdom to,

“Good things come in all packages. You just need to be willing to look for it.”
