Mother Theresa said, “We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean.  But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.”  This is great to remember when we are feeling that what we contribute is meaningless.  Our little piece of compassion may not be a lot alone, but it is an important piece when added with the compassion of everyone else.  If you are doing a 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle, and you get to the end and a piece is missing, it doesn’t matter how large or small that piece is, it is missed.  It is the same with your contribution, no matter how big or small you perceive it to be.
