But what difference will i make? i am only one. i am small and insignificant. i am no different from anyone else. yet the life force within, the ‘thing’ that is bigger than me kept whispering in the wind to the very soul of me … “trust me … others have gone before and others will follow … together you will make impact … if no one went, nothing will change, nothing will grow, everything will die when no one is (or only few are)  willing to take the risk”. but i might die, i replied, i am afraid. “and i will preserve the life within you” replied the great wind. “I will make it bigger than you are … and you will be … in the forever … trust me … go … all is well”. and as i released my hold a peace within was born such as i have never known. and as i grew in trust, i saw it raining … not one, not ten but hundreds, thousands just like me … surrendering, trusting, going freely, risking all to make a change, to bring new life. and as i arrived, i saw indeed that many were there ahead of me, many still on their way and i rejoiced knowing that my hope was real and my trust and faith secured … and the wind and i danced and we all danced and laughed and danced … and danced …
