A certain man died
nearly two thousand years ago.
Regardless of what you think of him:
that he didn't exist;
that he did but was merely a man;
or that somehow, what billions
have come to believe --
that he was divine;
whatever your thoughts
on the matter, your life,
and the world you live in
were impacted by the life,
or the myth, or the words,
or at least by the words credited to
this small town personality
who was no big shot in the world
of his day.
If his message,
or the claims about him
do not convince you of anything,
at least let the impact of his life
convince you of the one thing
all stories of him claim he came to say:
that the smallest life,
yes, even small lives like ours,
yours and mine,
matter.
