Mechanisms

 .

 .

It is a proven fact that even the slightest force can have enormous effects if the correct mechanism is involved: A single drop of water is enough to shatter the walls of a dam, given the adequate circumstances; the weight of the smallest of the pebbles could be enough to lift a mountain, if pulleys are used in the appropriate way; a single program can ruin the information saved in thousands of computers, more than any library could ever keep. Everything has an effect on everything, and that effect can be amplified to incredible levels. 

Sometimes, these mechanisms are not a physical object, but words, feelings, reactions. A chain of events of any kind, spreading all over the planet, starting form a single gaze and ending in a person’s last breath. Destiny itself can be expressed as a series of social, physical or psychological movements: an enormous, but subtle, piece of clockwork in which every part fits with the rest, thus achieving wondrous results.
