By definition, I've sought not just purpose, but validation with specific results.
I can now laugh at that silly notion because if that were the case, I'd be liable for all the actions that I didn't take.
The pebble analogy is so perfect because their effects are never by intentional design but rather the wave created washes over any of us, bathing us in its effect.
Thank you for that.
