“If I cannot do great things, I can always do small things in a great way.” – Martin Luther King Jr.
Thank you, Spidey for another thought-provoking quote.
We aren’t all destined for great things, well, not in the way of all the celebrities and famous intellectuals out there.
But we all have great inside us.
We can all be ‘great‘ children/ / spouses/ parents/ friends/ (insert profession here) if we want to be.
Our little gestures may not set the world alight but that special dinner the kids asked for might make them feel, and say “You’re great mum!”. That drink you pour for your partner after a stressful day makes them appreciate you in a different way, because you ‘know’.
Those kinds of things.
They are all within our control. We can choose to make that little difference, that can be viewed as something huge by others.
And sure, if you end up doing something GREAT great, that is just wonderful.
But remember, if you are making a positive difference to those around you, you’re already doing great!
So… tell me about someone who made you feel great recently? 😘
Have a peaceful Sunday Peeps ❤ And enjoy your week!

Without bragging, I am a GREAT teacher. I enjoy it immensely and after fifty years of doing it, I’d better be better than good at it! LOL

Such a brilliant quote and meaning behind it. You’re absolutely right, and it’s important to remember because we can get lost in aiming for bigger things and feeling we’ll never do anything huge and great, when actually the little things can be just as amazing and valuable. Have a lovely week 🙂

It’s great having my eldest daughter back home from S. Korea. She makes me feel very happy! Hope she stays for a while. I think she has the travel bug!

And that was a great post. A lot of people made/make me feel great, but if I have to choose, I will say the kids who volunteered at the charity event I worked last night.

Even though I had to wear a badge that was on the card from my daughter (‘I am WELL OLD’ it said), I was helped to feel great by my family this weekend for my birthday.
I was reminded that I have done some great things once, even if it continues to look like I haven’t learned from them much.
