Change happens one step at a time. It’s not always quick or instant. But
when it does happen, you can sense that it’s time to progress onto something
else; whether you’re ready for it or not. And it always has an effect on the environment
around you; whether you can sense it or not. Even by remaining motionless; you’re
reducing your air consumption and energy intake; freeing up resources for other
people. There is only a finite amount of air; so it’s important that we
continue to produce agriculture to sustain our environment. And even a simple
act of turning on a television can create sound ripples that can be detected by
other creatures. But what good does throwing a stone into a pond do? It might
cause ripples; but eventually the water will settle down again and return to
its natural state. Instead you need to hit that pond with a landslide to change
it forever.
"I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the water to create many ripples." -Mother Teresa.
