Everything is connected. Every word and action. Every thought. Nothing happens without consequence, without touching everything else around it, that then touches everything around them, and on and on. Consider the still pond. A pebble is tossed into the middle and concentric rings from the disturbance begin emanating on the surface towards the sides of the pond. Observe carefully and you will see the rings rebound back from the shore toward the center, often at oblique angles, eventually touching even the hidden shores of the pond. This is what we can see, what of that which happens beyond our sight? As our pebble falls through the water to the bottom of the pond it continues to send out waves of disturbance, though invisible to the eye, touching every part of the pond and every creature that calls the pond home.
The effect of our pebble reverberating in the pond is akin to our thoughts, words and actions effect on our selves and the world about us. Nothing happens in a vacuum. Our words and actions reverberate throughout the world, unseen or consciously noticed unless we command a position of international prominence, but the effect is there none the less. The analogy of “a butterfly flaps its wings in Africa and a drought happens in China” has been used by climatologists to suggest that the smallest actions can produce major effects is illustrative.
Never doubt your importance or connection with the Divine. You are the literal son or daughter of the Most High. Regard yourself accordingly and assert your true place in thought and deed as a demonstration of God’s love and guidance and the world rejoices.
