When my husband comes home from work, if I am not there yet, he
would wait for me to cook dinner so we can eat together. Sometimes, if he is
hungry, he would take out some leftover food from the fridge and ate just
enough to satisfy his hunger while he is waiting. However, I noticed on some
occasions he would put the dish back in the ice box with an amount that one can
fairly label as “baby snack” teased. Of course, I grumbled and believed that
his slicked action could simply mean that he was avoiding washing the dish and
getting his well groomed nails damaged --- until one day.
A couple days ago I was extremely cold at work I decided to have
a nice cup of tea. I picked up a medium size foam cup, dropped two spoons of
sugar, selected my favorite tea flavor, and mixed with some hot water. I was
about to get rid of the tea bag package when I noticed a note in it that said
“Your Small Cup Can Make a Big Difference”. It darned on me.
One day I came home from work very hungry. I needed something to
eat before I started to cook dinner. So I opened the fridge to get
something and you guess it, I found my husband’s spoonful, baby’s snack teased
waiting for me. This time it looked anything but a teased and I definitely did
not grumble; it was just the perfect size that satisfied my need. His Small “baby
snack teased leftover” did Make a Difference.
In life, we never know when we are going to brighten someone’s day
or change the world. Something that we may think is an annoyance may become
later the very saving grace. Therefore, before we stop doing because we think
it means nothing, think again and do it wholeheartedly; because we never know
when our SMALL will affect in
a BIG way.
