When you throw a stone in the water it sends ripples out, not one place is left untouched no matter how stout. Imagine each of us are water, and things we say and do are the stones. We are constantly sending out ripples the affect unknown. We tell ourselves in the moment, "only I will feel the change.", but so many others lives it tends to rearrange. If we stopped even for a moment to consider the cost. To think about the effect what might be lost! If we felt the connection to the others who are around. If we realized the ripple might be profound. Each one of us connected to another in some way. So many stones the waters intensely sway.

Ripples
