Just wondering about how my life could have touched someone else’s and I realized this. Maybe you’re just joking around online and mention something that triggers an idea in someone else that leads to revolutionary new things that impact humans everywhere. Even if you’re forgotten, or uncredited, you had a meaningful contribution.
Better yet, misinterpretation can lead to wonderful things.
Mistaking one thing for another, mishearing stuff, tripping over your own shoelaces, those are still things that contribute to the creative process.
