💡 The Mighty Mosquito: Why Small Isn’t Powerless
Ever felt like your words don’t matter? Like your efforts are too tiny to be noticed? Today’s Thought of the Day reminds us that size and strength aren’t the same thing. And if you’ve ever spent the night swatting at a single buzzing mosquito, you already know that.
This daily series of Thought of the Day and Question of the Day is here to stir up something deeper—maybe a reflection, maybe a memory, or maybe the push you need to act.
🧠 The Power of One
We’re taught to think big. Big dreams, big goals, big stages. But some of the biggest shifts in history began with the quiet courage of just one person. Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat. Malala picked up a pen. Mr. Rogers put on a sweater. One voice. One action. One ripple.
Don’t discount yourself just because you’re not loud, or known, or standing on some grand stage. Even the smallest spark can light up a room.

🔍 Who’s Your Mosquito?
Let’s turn it over to you: Who in your life has proven that small doesn’t mean powerless?
Is it the friend who made a perfectly timed phone call? A child who taught you something you didn’t expect? Maybe it’s you—and you just don’t give yourself credit.
For me, it’s my kids.
You want to see someone small do amazing things, put the snacks they want in the top cabinet. They will move chairs, stack boxes on top of garbage cans, and climb in ways you’d never expect was possible.
This is your moment to name them. Honor them. Learn from them.
➡️ Keep the Ripples Going
