This Ordinary Man…

Once upon a time there was a Man…
He thought he would one day be something very special, very great.
He thought he would one day do great things, and travel to magnificent places and meet wonderful people.
He thought he would discuss important topics and profound ideas.
He thought he had a destiny.
But it turned-out…
He was mistaken.
It turned-out…
He was really rather ordinary.
It turned-out…
He thought too much, and He acted too little…
It turns-out…
A little, ordinary, daily action goes a long way,
Like ordinary, perpetual, drops of water through magnificent rock,
Once upon a time, each and every day.
