It depends.
Devil’s Den was the site of a major Gettysburg Battle on July 2, 1863. However, during multiple family trips to Gettysburg beginning in the 1990s, Devil’s Den was not a “must see.”
Why?
It was a pile of stones. Seemingly, unimpressive stones.
Little Round Top, the site of a major Gettysburg battle on the same date, was impressive. My family visited Little Round Top during each Gettysburg trip.
If I zoomed my camera lens while at Little Round Top, Devil’s Den had more substance.
Eventually standing on and among Devil’s Den boulders was the only way I understood how imposing the battle site was.
How little is Devil’s Den? It depends on where I’m standing.
How big is Little Round Top? It depends on where I’m standing.
How big are my problems? How big are others’ problems? It depends. Am I looking from a distance or am I standing in the middle?
Are you far away or up close?
