ONE IS THE MAGIC NUMBER
If you can’t feed a hundred people, then feed just oneMother Teresa
Many a time we look at the state of affairs and bemoan our lot. We talk about it, think about it and try different solutions to the problem. Some of us actually want acknowledgement for the things we are doing as we are doing it. Sometimes we want it to be a big and spectacular event, to be noted in the history books. No, there is nothing wrong with wanting to be famous or doing it big. After all, the saying goes ‘Go big or go home’. However, sometimes I think we try to do too much at once, even if it could mean our demise.
Sometimes we have to understand that one is the magic number. Rome wasn’t built in a day, so one step at a time would be sufficient. Just because it is not big enough to put you on the world stage in one go, doesn’t mean that it cannot or should not be done.
I believe that making a difference in one life at a time, feeding one person at a time is good enough. In one of by other pieces, I wrote something to the same effect. Making a difference in one person’s life is a world of difference. A world of difference, one life, one is the magic number.
