Can one person make a difference? Consider Muhammad, Suleyman, and others, for example.
Yes, because y’know-
Muhammad find cave, angel find him and tell message right? So if Muhammad didn’t say message, it might have not spread. If Muhammad didn’t climb mountain and go into scary cave, or if he got injured by sliding down mountain and die, no message spread.
Why did he even go to cave when he could pray somewhere else. Is cave holy? Is not scary? maybe it quiet? So if he not brave and go back village before get to cave, no message too.
So one person one person matter. Also sillyman
if sillyman different person born in japan, no sillyman magnificent so time and place matter for difference also… and …待ってなんのこと話してたっけ なんか頭がーーーまっ白だーーーあははははははは
