When Everything Seemed Bigger
The world didn’t shrink. We just stopped looking at it with wonder.
Have you ever gone back to the neighborhood where you grew up and everything seemed… smaller?
The streets you once ran felt endless. The park, a whole world. The house on the corner, a castle.
Now you look at them and they fit within a few steps.
It’s not that the world has shrunk. It’s that when we were children, every corner was a mystery, every street, an adventure, every day, a discovery.
Now there’s less to explore. Less to surprise us. Less to amaze us.
So, take care of the child you once were. Let them out. Let them run. Let them wonder.
Only then will the world remain as big as the first time you saw it.
The World Never Shrinks, We Just Stop Exploring.
