Control Over the Future

Looking at the big picutre, we have all the control in the world over our future. Every little decision by someone who is in power will have an effect on our future as a whole. Small decisions could create a lifechanging invention or send the world into an all out war. Even individual people will have an effect on our future. When I think of individuals changing the future of the world I like to think of the butterfly effect that ties along to the story British soldier who saw a helpless German soldier laying on the ground during WWI and he decided not to shoot him. That helpless German soldier ended up being hitler who commited terrible acts of killing over 6 million Jews and was part of a world war that killed millions of men across the world. The British soldier had know idea that would happen, but it goes to show the the smallest of moral decisions can change the future of the entire world.
