Bigger Than This

There are problems in the world that are greater than my own.
But because these problems do not have a direct impact on my day to day life I put them aside; we all do this.
Sometimes I get wrapped up in my own problems so much that I am blind to things going on arounnd me.
However, I am a person who steps back and tries to see the bigger picture in everything I do.

Today I stepped back and looked at what was going on around me.
The issues of friends, family, and strangers that I can help with.
Their problems are much bigger than the issues I am facing.
I feel the need to push back my minuscule problems, that even yesterday were all I could think about, to help these people.
These friends who are my family.
