The Butterfly Effect...
So I got to thinking…and usually when I think too hard, my brain is suddenly filled with ridiculous pandemonium. However, being off task in AP Spanish has for once paid off.
I’m sure we all have heard of “The Butterfly Effect”…but if you haven’t, it is an idea that just one flap of a butterfly’s wings can create very small changes in the atmosphere, and those changes may consequently alter the course of weather on earth. It is a theory that small variations of the initial condition of a dymanical system may produce large variations in the long term behavior of the system. If the butterfly had not flapped its wings, perhaps the whole system would have been different.
Stay with me, I’m going somewhere with this….
Remember World Changers? I know that we all say that we are going to change the world…but how? I would keep thinking to myself, Its easy for me to represent WC, but to be honest, I haven’t done much. I can’t pick up and be a missionary Africa…and I’m not always able to go chill with the homeless…I can’t adopt a needy child…nor can I go preach in the jails (not yet at least).
So there I was, in Spanish class, I should have been working on my “pronombres” haha, but I realized that I already am changing the world. If one butterfly’s wings can ultimately change the course of earth, imagine what I can do with one smile, with one “How you doing?”, with one prayer. We will be held accountable for the things around us that we saw but did not change. Think about it, we are CHANGING THE WORLD, the only question is, are we changing it for the better?

every little thing that we do does change the world through its effects, but is it for good or for evil? your on to something there Rae =]
dude.....exactly....that's what being a World Changer is all about...yes one day I believe we will be able to minister all around the world...but we got to be a wc in our daily life, not just when people see it or just when have the spotlight...it's not about that...We could change the world one person at a time...with a smile.....prayer...etc....clean blog
