Powerful Like The Sea

As I stared into the vast blackness of the sea yesterday evening, I thought about how small I really am, but how connected with everything I may actually be. We may think that our thoughts are solitary and our existence to be insignificant in the grand scheme of things. But we’re like a tiny water molecule in a wave, tumbling in the ocean. Connected to all the other water molecules that make up the life force of the world. We will never know what other molecules that we’ve touched and where they end up going. We’re part of this hydrological cycle of people, of energies, our thoughts recycle, our words and actions and just our existence are like the waters, powerful enough to erode the earth, to create raging storms, to provide the rain that waters other people and allows them to grow, the steam that powers the engine of life, because we’re part of a beautiful system where one small act affects absolutely everything else. And our energies never really leave, even when we eventually do, kind of like evaporation. Things in the very distant past are still discussed and influencing things today. I am always amazed at this universe. I am positive that it is all connected. And I am equally certain that no matter how insignificant you feel, no matter what you’re doing, you are filled with enough power to change the world, and you’re doing it right now. Just a thought.
