What we do has an altering effect on the universe. Simple things like waking up and getting ready to work affect what kind of personality we possess. Minor occurrences can profoundly affect the way the world works! Would you believe if someone said that a butterfly flapping its wings in some part of the world could cause a hurricane in another part of the world? Unrealistically true! It is called the butterfly effect in simple terms. The little things we do can impact the world in a much larger spectrum.

The butterfly effect can work both positively and negatively. It is why we emphasize doing good and being good to the world. It is not about the faucet leaking in our bathrooms – it is about how it can result in famine and drought in some parts of the world. It is not about making a difference in society – it is about the more profound impact we create in the hearts of humans in some strange part of the world. Every good we do stays in the world. Likewise, every bad we do remains, too.

Therefore, our innate responsibility is to give this world what it deserves – goodness! People around us, animals, plants, water, and earth, all need a lot of merit to nullify the effect of what is going on in the world: all the crime, all the hatred, all the racism, and the negativity that is going on among ourselves and towards mother nature can come to a stop if only we knew how to reverse it with our influence! We need to harbor more power, wisdom, and intelligent thoughts to maneuver the steering toward progress, impacting the world and its people in the best way possible. Every action has an equal reaction, so they say. What must come out of our efforts must be our choice, and that choice will impact the world at large! The better we think and do, the better we receive. The power lies within each one of us to make a change. We hold the prowess within each of us to make this world a much better place to live in – not only for ourselves but for the future we create.

If we dig a little deeper and think of it, the competition is good as long as it is healthy. However, only some know what healthy competition is. Therefore, it is essential, as adults, to raise a generation that knows the butterfly effect and does precisely what they are supposed to do to reverse the adverse effects that we have been harboring in this world for all these centuries.

The butterfly effect assumes that the world is interconnected in every way – from the climate to the cultures practiced worldwide. One small occurrence can influence a much larger complex system. Therefore, it is wrong to understand that our small actions and influence do not impact the big picture. We all contribute to this world equally as homosapiens. Simply put, our idea of ‘how will my not littering the road affect the overall cleanliness of the state’ is wrong. Our one vote can make a difference, our small action of closing the tap appropriately makes a difference, our driving responsibly on the road, and our keeping the house and our surroundings clean makes a difference. Everything we do makes a massive difference in the bigger picture, and it’s a fact!

Talking about occurrences, a slight delay in our timing, the choices we make, the movies we watch, the words we speak, everything is interconnected. But coincidences are a major part of the butterfly effect. Nothing happens without a reason or a more significant connection to ourselves or this world. When the world conspires, we achieve. That conspiration comes from the actions and reactions of ourselves and several others worldwide, and it is legit. Therefore, we must fulfill this world’s basic needs and do and think good to reap the best of the world. The butterfly effect is not an idea; it is the basic rule of life where we learn that our lives are not merely to live and die – it is to create a difference in this vastness that gave us life!
