Spring is not one enormous miracle - it is a great number of little miracles. Each new leaf is a miracle. We must not try too hard to create something big, if by doing so we forget the little thing we can do. Perhaps by being faithful in doing the little thing, we put out one new green leaf towards the big miracle we seek.
