A friend of mine recently told me that, at least for a while, he was “going small.” He could no longer stomach what was happening here in America – the rage, the grievances, the gloating of the winners; the self-righteousness, the blaming, the myopia of the losers. He was going to do the only thing that made sense to him: Care for himself, his family, his friends, the people he loved and who loved him back, no matter their particular brand of politics.
The idea of going small right now is bathed in wisdom. Whether your side won or lost, you owe it to yourself to simply focus on the little things that, taken together are the essence of living.
