does size matter?

to truly appreciate anything it must be taken away from you. if u dont have it, u might covet it. u might pine for it. but u really dont know what u r pining for. if u have it u might use it, abuse it, misuse it without realizing how beautiful it is. and all this realization came to me thanks to a flat tyre. i was coasting along a curve, if one can actually coast along one when the great tragedy happened. a small puny nail stood up against the thundering surge of my machine and thrust itself with all that it could muster into the thick hide of my rear-wheel. funny how something so small could cause so much misery and anxiety! guess its a lesson for our generation fed on "size does matter" :-)
