Today's Tendril...
| Don't sweat the small stuff, the saying goes. But what a better world it would be if people actually took a little time out of their busy schedules to do so. |

Today's Tendril...
Each breadcrumb, Each footprint, And each mind-spark, Contains a little piece of the milestone ahead —Even if that piece Is nothing more Than the essence Of the "what is yet to be." |

Today's Tendril...
| Detail and derail differ by a letter; a seemingly insignificant, little letter. But it's the little things—the details—that matter. Beware the details, for they may derail you. |

Too Easy
Too easy to rationalize acts of unkindness.
Too easy to bury the wrongs.
Too easy to forget those that are suffering.
Too easy to dismiss out-of-hand,
without concern or remorse.
Too easy to blame "they" and "them,"
from beneath the sanctity of a black veil.
All too easy to pretend that the little things don't matter,
even though life itself is but a collection of little things.
Too easy to bury the wrongs.

even though life itself is but a collection of little things.
As we flatten the world,
we mustn't allow our souls to be flattened in the process.

Today's Tendril...
| God, guide me in the way of little things, so that I can find the footprints of serenity in the vastness of the day. |
Alternate Version
God, guide me in the way of little things, so that I might find a path away from the colossal maw of the ever present now.
