The Butterfly Effect (1 Viewer)

[kodoku]

So in case you aren't familiar with it, it basically means a small and seemingly unimportant action can have a great effect later on. For example, a tiny butterfly flapping its wings in one place can eventually cause a hurricane in another. I find this really interesting and have thought about it many times..

so, any thoughts about this?
Have you ever said or done something you didn't think was a big deal and it ended up becoming huge later on? 🦋

I think everything connects, even the smallest of things can impact your life in some kind of way and you would never know about it. No action is actually unimportant because without that particular action, the future events that follow wouldn't turn out the same as they would with that one action. It's something I've thought about often and it's pretty interesting to think that people assume what they say isn't that significant when it can greatly affect the outcome of not only their own life, but others too.

I once chose to go for a back handspring on the beam even though I felt off.
For the remaining 4 years I did gymnastics I was never able to get over the fear of doing them, not consistently anyways because I was so shaken up by my fall. Its the one skill I absolutely couldnt get over my fear of.

Hmm I don't think I've had an experience like that yet, where I've said or done something that later had a bigger impact than I imagined.
