To understand what enormous means,
poets might say, “Count the stars of
the heavens” or
“Count the grains of
sand on the shores of the sea.”
Obviously, sand and stars cannot
be counted. So is there another way
to understand and to discover just
what enormous means?
To see enormous, how about looking
out at night through a telescope into
outer space or through a microscope
at just one grain of sand.
How about experiencing forgiveness
from another whom we hurt with an
enormous mistake? Or how about the
love involved in a 50 year marriage?
