What is the smallest thing?
Topic #58
What is the smallest thing near you? Write a paragraph about it.
Bonus: Use your imagination – are elements the smallest thing? atoms? quarks? How do you feel about the fact we keep finding smaller and smaller things inside of things that are already quite small?

A menor coisa que existe para mim são: Maldade, hipocrisia, inveja, ganancia, são coisas pequenas que machucam muito o ser humano. Eu fujo de pessoas assim. E o pior que o mundo está cheio de coisas pequenas.
Abraços Mina!
Mina, nous sommes sur la même longueur d’onde, nous parlons de la même chose … si, o mundo està cheios de coisas pequenas … ♥
My brain is smaller than an atom. : )
Ce qui est petit et sous la main ? ma souris, c’est une souris sans fil, elle a besoin de deux piles, rechargeables … et dans une pile si je me souviens bien il y a des éléments “empilés” – est-ce que le nom de PILE provient de cet empilement ? Et si on ne prend pas des objets matériels, on pourrait bien parler santé, fragilité accidents cardio-vasculaires, AVC (accident vasculaire cérébral) et du contraste de cette fragilité avec les objets dont on est fier, voitures, ou des succès remportés … et se dire “sic transit gloria mundi” la gloire du monde passe, nous passons aussi devenons tout petits avant de disparaître.
Hmm, this should be interesting. It seems technology is becoming smaller and smaller – especially where the government is involved. This topic is sure to bring up some highly intriguing topics.
My bank account balance?????
This is the funniest answer so far. Nice.
Hilarious!
para a Ciencia, átomos, prótons , elétrons , neutrons ,
eu não sou capaz de separar estas partículas de milésimos de micróns .
do lado humano, bem perto de nós , sou muito capaz de ver e sentir as pequenas coisas , apesar de serem movidas por esses elementos…
These days, it is my patience.
Your patience…? Wish It’s getting bigger the following days
I am brown and brittle, tiny as can be.
No one save the dog would want me.
I’ve just been sitting here most all day you see.
My oh my what do you think I might be?
The smallest thing next to me happens to be my hair grip… not very interesting I’m afraid!
The smallest closest thing is the spark of inspiration that caused me to write tonight’s post. Thankfully, it wasn’t a real spark.
Hey, I had once devised a theory that the solar system – with sun and planets surrounding it is actually an atom (nucleus, electrons) for some bigger/higher being. So, we are actually living in that atom.
And, if we are able to see deeply inside an atom (through a microscope), we might find life on one of the electrons.
But sadly, no one seems to be interested in listening to that spark of a genius.
Someday, this will be hailed as a scientific breakthrough

The smallest thing nearest to me at this precise moment are my spectacles. Now these are very important because without them I cannot see to write. These are my reading glasses but I do have others in the same case which are for ordinary moving about stuff.
Silly thing is that when I read a book or eat my food I have to take my glasses off as I can see better without them !! One weird lady!!!!
Definitely has to be my bank balance.
Just started my blog today, so excited to finally be a part of this!
Mine was my little son’s notebook that he carries with him always. He is seven and has begun an epic story about some adventurous parrots. I have posted an excerpt…
The smallest thing near me is also the biggest. It is my thoughts. They have no mass or structure in a physical form, but my thoughts are constantly there. They grow and grow and become big ides. But you will never see it because they are physically nothing.
This is a great idea… I have been writing blog posts for people for a long while and the people who normally ask me to write are people who loved their blog idea in the beginning but have now got so used to writing about things that they are just not inspired to write any more. Hopefully more people will see this post and it will inspire them to continue on with their blogs.
The smallest thing to me is respect – respect for a woman that is homeless and might need my help. Respect for women who may need financing – believing in them and taking the time. Respect to listen when many others may not have taken the time to care…This is the smallest thing to me…thanks for this!
The iPhone duh! Read all about it: http://bit.ly/gFQdS3
Myself. I am made up of atoms. Tiny stuff!
Answer: dust particles. Dust on the keyboard, dust on the desk, dust everywhere. No matter how often you wipe the surfaces, there’s always dust, dust, dust!!!

The smallest thing near me are the brains of a few folks, Ok, kidding. The smallest thing near me is also the largest thing near me, it is the idea I have forming in my brain @ this moment. Ideas are the merest of electro-chemical reactions, but oh how they grow. I hope that everyone creates an idea now, & then writes it down, or better yet, acts on it!
Crumbs of chocolate are on my desk and they are very small.
The unseen things that the human eye cannot see unless through a micro-scope.

I wrote a post today about this. My idea was about a paperclip and how a small idea can become something great. http://ricnunez.com/make-ideas-happen/
