One Compared to Many

Author's Note: I was thinking before about how small a blade of grass is, and how it is almost nothing compared to a field. It reminded me of how small we are compared to the billions of people in this world. So here is a piece that explains what I was thinking:

In this world, there are many things that cannot be done alone. Alone, one blade of grass cannot cover a field. Alone, one drop of water cannot fill an ocean. Alone, one grain of sand cannot create a beach. However, when paired with many, each of these objects can do things that affect the world. This is evident with humans, too. When we work alone, we can only do so much; nothing compared to the work of many. However, if we join together, there are very few things that we cannot do. Right now, we are just blades of grass, drops of water, grains of sand, but soon, with the help of others, we will be able to create fields, oceans and beaches.
