The White Stripes - little acorns

Janet은 삶의 여러 어려움으로 힘든 시간을 겪었으나, 다람쥐가 겨울을 준비하는 모습을 보며 자신도 작은 문제로 나누어 극복할 수 있다는 깨달음을 얻었다
그녀는 문제를 잘게 쪼개어 하나씩 해결하고 결국 긍정적인 삶을 되찾았다
이 이야기는 힘든 순간에도 희망을 잃지 말고, 작은 행동으로 시작할 수 있다는 메시지를 담고 있다

When problems overwhelm us and sadness smothers us, where do we find the will and the courage to continue? Well the answer may come in the caring voice of a friend, a chance encounter with a book, or from a personal faith. For Janet, help came from her faith, but it also came from a squirrel. Shortly after her divorce, Janet lost her father then she lost her job, she had mounting money problems. But Janet not only survived, she worked her way out of despondency and now she says, life is good again. How could this happen? She told me that late one autumn day when she was at her lowest she watched a squirrel storing up nuts for the winter, one at a time he would take them to the nest. And she thought, if that squirrel can take care of himself with a harsh winter coming on, so can I. Once I broke my problems into small pieces, I was able to carry them, just like those acorns, one at a time
Take all your problems and rip 'em apart
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Carry them off in a shopping cart
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Another thing you should've known from the start
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
The problems in hand are lighter than at heart
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Be like the squirrel, girl, be like the squirrel
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Give it a whirl, girl, be like the squirrel
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
And another thing you have to know in this world
Oh, oh, ah-oh-oh
Cut up your hair, straighten your curls
Well, your problems hide in your curls
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh
