| | " 'Cause even a grain is enough for heart to be always full."
I hope I wrote it grammatically correct.
In the original the word order is a bit different from usual because it is a saying. |

| | Thanks Maki
Laura, do you know a similar saying in English? CC: kafetzou |

| | Hmmm. A grain? I don't understand. Are we talking about a grain of sand, or the kind of grain that you eat?
Also, in what kind of situation would this saying be used? |
| | 23 Φεβρουάριος 2010 01:08 |
| | We are talking about a small amount or the smallest amount possible.
The point is that small things make us happy. |

| | Hmm. I guess that's not true in English-speaking culture - I can't think of any equivalent saying. Ian? CC: IanMegill2 |

| | We can find complete satisfaction in even the smallest of things?
or
We can learn to find satisfaction even in little things?
?
Anyway, I like this idea... |

| | I like the idea too!
I think Ian's first suggestion is probably the best - I didn't think of that one. |

| | Or how about this line from a Temptations song:
"I can build a castle from a single grain of sand."
(just kidding - I don't think the meaning is quite the same) |
