1. "If" is the BIGGEST "little" word in the English language. It can stop a contract from going through. It can stop a marriage. It can stop love. It can intervene in life and change it dramatically. If can do many things. It is able to change an entire book of words. (If this story had been true, wouldn't it really be sad then?") If can change you point of view, perspective, and interest in one, or many things (persons, etc...) all at once, or over a long period of time.
1. Todd said that"If is the biggest little word in the world." He was right...

IF by Rudyard Kipling starts -
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowances for their doubting too;
......and ends ...
Yours is the earth and everything that's in it
And - which is more - you'll be a man, my son.
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowances for their doubting too;
......and ends ...
Yours is the earth and everything that's in it
And - which is more - you'll be a man, my son.
