I was giving a new friend my e-mail address last night, and she asked, “Teeny tiny pieces? What is that, what are you doing?” Well, teeny tiny pieces is a phrase I picked up from my friend, Ana…the one I just visited in Spain. Anything that’s small, or divided into sections, or that there are multiples of, Ana would call teeny tiny pieces. For example, Ana would say that a pizza is cut into teeny tiny pieces. Well, I eventually started saying “teeny tiny pieces”, too. I often use it when I’m talking about parts of a whole, as in all the good things that make up life. Individually, the pieces are good and worthy, but together, they make the picture complete. Teeny Tiny Pieces of Life…by the way, did you know that there are only a handfull of paintings in St. Peter’s Bascilica in Rome? The walls are covered with thumb-nail sized squares of marble…placed by hand into the most fantastic mosaics imaginable. Teeny tiny pieces of marble, used to create a masterpiece.
So, from Rome, back to Spain, where Ana and I were always on the lookout for tiny things to take pictures of, which made the trip even more fun. Thought I’d share a few of our pictures with you. Hope you enjoy!
