The change we create

We are movers. Shakers. People who make a difference.

So it’s natural that we want to see the change we create.

We see the landscape, we effect change, and we want to witness the result.

But often, what we see is impermanent. Fleeting. Almost as though we weren’t there at all.

Let’s pause to recognize that sometimes we don’t see the extent of our influence. That we’re often the butterfly flapping its wings … with no awareness that we’ve changed the weather patterns.

Or in another way, we’re creating ripples. And when we create ripples, the water doesn’t hold its shape. That’s not the point.

The ripples we create have a beauty, meaning, and story of their own.
