The Butterfly Effect

“…there are no random acts. That we are all connected. That you can no more separate one life from another than you can separate a breeze from the wind.”-Mitch Albom. This quote means that everyone is connected every action you do whether it is on purpose or accidental, you will be affecting someone’s life other than your own. To illustrate, every person’s life is intertwined with another such as the butterfly effect. The butterfly effect is when, for example a butterfly flapping its wings can cause a tornado somewhere. Now, the butterfly itself won’t cause a tornado, of course. However, the butterfly’s contribution of even the smallest wind will intertwine with the normal wind and could very well be contributing to the creation of a tornado in a land far far away.
