Description

As we go about our daily lives, it's easy to see the positive effects of our actions on a regular basis. Work hard, and you'll get a raise. Be a good person, and you'll find your one true love. Life is good, right? In the same vein, it's easy to see how there are moments when our choices might ripple outward into the universe to and cause unintended consequences. That raise you got? Well, it eliminated another job opening that somebody needed to stay off the street. Your romantic escapades? You've deprived someone *else* of their soul mate. I choose to see the potential positive benefits of everything I do. That guy who lost his spot at the job interview for my position? There was a five car pile-up on the freeway to get here, that he also missed out on! That deprived soul mate? Well, they met *their* soul mate! But that positivity isn't a certainty, and in the end it's the same as being pessimistic. What's the take-away here? Basing your decisions on possible outcomes is wishful thinking at best. Figure out what makes you happy, here and now, and steer the flow of life toward it. --- **Artist:** Steve Walasavage **Series:** Non-Fungible Travels **Collection:** Steve Walasavage Editions **Edition:** 1/24 NFT --- *"Steve Walasavage Editions"* is a set of editions released over the course of my career as a photographer, artist, and multidisciplinary phenom (citation needed).
