As we walked to the Hawaii State Library, my husband noticed a bumper sticker that said, “A drop starts a ripple.” After he told me the metaphor, he changed the saying to, “A pebble starts a ripple,” and that started a conversation to and from the library.
Questions like, What is a pebble? Can I be a pebble? Be the first to smile. Be kind. Be humble. Live Aloha. Then I thought that writers of letters to the editor are pebbles that start ripples — how many we will probably never know.
As we entered our condo, I took off my walking shoes. My husband followed me and noticed a small pebble on the floor.
