Being small and happy
Posted by Yassine on November 15, 2007
An inspiring Lee from the Common craft shared and that I would like to share as well with readers of this blog.
It’s about life and the way each one decides to take it.
A boat docked in a tiny Mexican village and an American tourist complimented the Mexican fisherman on the quality of his fish and asked how long it took to catch them.
“Not very long,” said the fisherman.
“But then why didn’t you stay out longer and catch more?” Asked the American.
The Mexican explained that his small catch was sufficient to meet his needs and those of his family.
The American asked, “But what do you do with the rest of your time?”

Sorry to say this, but there is no consistent relationship between being small and happy
at the meantime. that’s a dellusion! a belief that lends itself to fiction rather than reality.
Be consistent!!
give only one example of one who is small and happy here in this world. that’s nonesense!
if one is not big enough, one should resign from this life. there is no place for small people
as they would be treaded over like ants or a cockroach. deliberately or not!
Believe me, this world is made of strong and for strong people. those who can fight and fight back…
Albert Einstein says,” only two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity. and i am not sure of the former”
a belief i being small is outraging human stupidity…think it over and tell if you really believe in that story. if so stick to it then through real work and implementation. i mean get small then….

Thanks for the comment.
I really get your point. However, sometimes, being stong and effective doesn’t necessarily mean being big. One can *choose* to keep a low profile and still BE a great person.
I believe those who want to be a success by showing their teeth are simply inflating themseves and may at anyttime let the air out
.
Just think of how ants avoid your foot-steps. That’s one advantage of being small.
For me, appearing small doesn’t bother as I’m personally satisfied. I try to open my eyes to all the options that show up everyday insead of being taken by the overwhelming flood.
Just give it a though.
I’m small and happy!
