Orion

Appearance

The universe is in a constant state of motion. Wait long enough and the star constellations will appear dramatically different than they do today. People of the distant future won't see Orion like we do. And it's likely, they won't see each other the same way either.

There's virtually nothing we can do to alter the celestial state. It will randomly become what it will become...entropy on full display. But, we can shift who we will become. We can choose to act in ways which might seem relatively insignificant now, but magnified over time, may cause a very different outcome, both for us and the world around us. Our poor eating habits aren't immediately visible. Our offensive language doesn't affect millions. Neither does helping an old lady cross the street. But, our persistent habits, both good and bad, change the culture. And, over time, our culture determines how the world, and perhaps the universe, sees us.

Our culture and appearance don't come from big moves. Rather, they're made with tiny steps...drip, drip. Each one counts, especially in the grand scheme of things. Choose wisely.
