An unstoppable tempest

As I sit here on the other side of May- I decide to take a few moments to reflect. All that effort- all that time- and no money- was it worth it? My practical side says- No! You are crazy. My ideal and thinking side says YES- every bit of it. What all did you learn? What connections did you forge? What paths did you open? How many hurdles- of practicality, egos, uncertainty, cynicisms, can I really do its, space and time did you cross? And how many avenues do you see before you- which would never have been there before? Question is: Which one do I take? More importantly, what do I believe in and how much of me am I willing to invest in it? But then- I am one of so many billion- in less than an eyeblink just like everyone else I will be gone. And in less than an eyeblink I can also work for some infinitesimal change, no? Because I think that just like the butterflies flapping their wings, many many many simultaneous eyeblinks can unleash an unstoppable tempest.
