Circles inside circles
Some big - some small
But
The smallest of the circles
Is the biggest of them all.

What a metaphor and within it deep meaning. Often the smallest is the biggest (for the want of a nail...) Well penned
Thanks again!
It has me thinking...
You are most welcome. (a shoe is lost, and for the want of a shoe a horse is lost and so forth
Valiantstar, I love the paradox here. It reads almost like a proverb or a Zen koan…simple on the surface, but the longer I sit with it, the larger it becomes. Strong little piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

I wrote this for my son who is on a somewhat gruelling solo cycle taking in the mountainous regions of Japan. The physical exhaustion, and solitude, seem to be having a profound psychological effect on him.
My view was was reasonably simply: i.e. the kingdom of God is within us, but when I ask Google's AI to interpret, his take was much broader than my small brain could contain!
