A Kindling, Of Sorts
The simplicity of certain actions is the very component that, in my eyes, makes them worthy of all the work put in.
I’m not entirely speaking of deeds that require rudimentary effort, but more so deeds that seem lesser on paper - things that are simple in words: finding time to give attention to elderly faces that show up at church, teaching an English children’s worship song to a group of excited kids, making cups of tea for your family before you make one for yourself, or simply messaging a friend you haven’t talked to in a long time.

Completeness does not require overindulgence or complication. On the contrary, the clarity that simple things provide is sufficient to fulfill some of our fundamental expectations after we complete a job or finish an effort. Sometimes, all one needs is the courage or thought to see it.
