Here's a question for you. Say there are other universes. There's probably one that's just like this one. Maybe one almost identical. Maybe almost exactly identical. There's only one difference.
You're...not in it.
What do you mean to a world...that functions without you?
What can you bring to the lives of people who have gone about their lives, day after day, without you there?
Can you, honestly, I mean, really say...that you made a difference?
I didn't think so. I don't think anybody can. But I'm sure you'd like to.
-[--]-
Every day, we go about our lives, interacting with other people. It has to do with that cause and effect concept, but I don't know how. The point is that in any given building, maybe where you work, maybe not, one person could be taken out, and the building will still function. Either the work will spread throughout, or that one person, maybe you, will simply be...replaced.
Unless the number of people in a job reduces significantly, the impact is minimal. If the entire staff of half the building vanished, it would have an effect. Of course. But one? Nobody...would...notice.
-[--]-
Life does not require you. Life is inevitable.
You've got three choices, with life. You can flow with it, ignore it, or obstruct it. You can't stop it, and you can't force it, but you still can do one of those three things.
-[--]-
I know I don't make a difference. I'm aware that if I wasn't around, there'd still be someone to think up this same thing, the idea. People have done it before me. I know I'm not original.
But it isn't for lack of trying.
