The Tiniest Thing

Can you see it?

By Gabriel ShamesPublished 3 days ago 1 min read

What is the tiniest thing worth? Will you know it when you see it? Will you know how much it might mean to someone else?

The tiniest thing could be a kind gesture… it only takes a second, but can change everything. It could be a few notes hummed, that touches someone’s heart. I could be a lucky penny left behind that brightens someone’s day.

In fact, the truly tiniest thing of all is not even a thing. It’s the building block of all things! In the molecules, there are atoms. In the atoms, there are quarks. In the quarks… there’s still something tinier. Without the tiniest of tiny things, we wouldn’t have the biggest of big things. We wouldn’t have the gargantuan universe.

I’m a traveling American who’s been interested in writing as long as I can remember. I took a unique test in 4th grade where they told me I wrote creatively at a college level!

Hope you enjoy reading as much I as I do creating ❣️
