Let me tell you something.

My grandfather was the same way - he always thought what he was doing didn't matter. He didn't make much money. He wasn't in politics or anything. He volunteered at the Civic Center a few days a week with my Grandma. He rode around town on his moped, and said "hi" to everybody he met. He went to church sporadically - always sitting in the same seat.

The only unusual thing about him was that he made and sold canes made from the reproductive organs of bulls. That got him some attention - the Kansas City News liked to do stories about him, and he got to be on the radio sometimes.

He said it many times - "I've never done anything that mattered."

Well he died on Christmas day this year. Guess how many people attended his wake? 1476 people signed in! The line went all the way around the funeral home and into the street. Many people didn't even get to come inside to pay their last respects. We estimate around 2000 people showed up. TWO THOUSAND!

He touched each an every one of those people's lives in some way, and it meant enough to them that they came out in the bitter cold during the holidays to attend his wake.

So don't be so sure that what you're doing in this world doesn't matter. Every tiny little thing you do, every interaction you have with any person, means something to somebody!

HAVE A NICE DAY!
