Everything Matters

“For want of a nail the shoe was lost,
For want of a shoe the horse was lost,
For want of a horse the rider was lost.
For want of a rider the battle was lost.
For want of a battle the kingdom was lost-
And all for want of a horseshoe nail.”
- Poor Richard’s Almanac, 17th century poet George Herbert


Moral?  Everything and everyone matters no matter how insignificant it appears.

Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
