Loved the talk about the importance of small things. Funny, as somebody actually said exactly that to me last night - how something small can make such a difference to a person. It was after I played some records he really loved, while DJing in a local pub. And today we had a showcase of my creative writing students' work and one of them said, "I would never have written this, and I wouldn't be reading it here today, if it hadn't been for your classes." It's good to made aware of the value of what you do - and to actually take time to acknowledge it. Who knows what the wider effects of your actions may be on others, and how these effects might resonate further and for longer. Everybody leaves a legacy in this way.
