I've always believed that
the best things you could do
for someone, were not things.
they were nothings.
and as so, it is true.

See my dear friends, an example or two:
   a little money although you never ask,
a substitute from a too-easy task,
   a ride on the wheel, even when they're afraid,
a boy in a book, learning how to braid,
   even a blanket when you're a little too cold,
or a genuine smile from someone that's old.


Its truly the nothings, can't you see?
The nothings mean something to me.
O.K
Give someone a nothing and see what it will do.
I thank God for the beautiful nothings I receive everyday although I'm not always good to return.
