Meaning doesn’t need a big stage. Helping your neighbor carry groceries counts.

The notion that meaning requires scale is borrowed from how things get publicised, not from how they feel. Helping one person is not a miniature version of mattering. It is the whole thing, happening between two people with nobody filming it. Significance has never needed a crowd in order to be real.

Do one small useful thing for somebody nearby this week with no audience at all: carry something, hold something, fix something. Check afterwards whether it felt small, because it usually does not.
