Timmy T. was going about his business one day, when he noticed that four lumps had formed under his skin. If that wasn’t enough to worry him, a part of his body literally fell off “surely I must be dying!” he thought.
Unbeknownst to him, however, the same strange thing were happening to all of his friend. You see, timmy was a tadpole.
Whenever we focus too much on ourselves, we tend to not see others. When we become too immersed in our own problems we fail to see the often greater and more numerous ones in the world around us; our little world is then all we see, and then our problems seem to us like the most daunting in the world.
