Small Things Do Matter!

If you think that small things are not worth to be done and you don't want to sweat for it, then you should think about it again! ;)

In age of 20, eventually I know how to make paper bird. I'm so happy. :) I never knew before that when you make it, it feels so good. Even it's just a small thing -unless you make a giant one- but you have to give at least 50% of your concentration for it. Moreover if you make a tiny one, you need to concentrate more. But it really is a good feeling. When you finish making one paper bird, your hand will automatically trying to find another paper to make another one, always like that, always like that. Because it is, like traveling, addictive! You can't stop! Believe it or not! And you can simply kill your time -if you're bored- by making paper bird. And you know like a very famous Japanese Proverb says "If you make 1000 of paper bird, your wish will come true." I don't know if it's true or not, but you can give it a try if you want. And if it's not true, at least you have 1000 of paper bird, you can put it in a jar, and if you make them with colorful paper, I believe you will have a very beautiful decor.

So small things do matter, at least for me. Almost all small things; like the art of making paper bird; like say hello and smiling to stranger; like say thank you or sorry; like give a seat to old citizen; like helping someone to cross the street; like throw the garbage in the bin; anything; do matter! If you think that small stuff is not so important, you have to think about it again. Because if you can realize that small thing might give you so much in return, you would do that. Making paper bird can give you a contentment and a good decor; by saying hello and smiling to stranger, you open yourself to accept new friendship; we don't have to discuss about the power of thank you and sorry, I bet we know it already; and the rest you I believe you can find it by yourself.

Maybe it takes only less than 2 minutes to do small things, it doesn't cost you anything, but you'll get so much in return. ;)
