I appreciate your leading example regarding Hitler. All of my life I have struggled with the concept of how some people can be so evil as to try to destroy a whole people. Certainly, I would wish that time frame, and all that suffering, could be removed from history. I agree that the evil being erased could not fix society, and the fact that evil continues in the form of other rulers, case in point in Venezuela right now where people starve goes on this second. Evil leaders will continue to flourish, regardless of whether we get rid of one or not.

The butterfly effect is a fascinating Theory. I also watched the movie and looked into it. I don't presume to be able to change the past in anyway, but I hope to affect my future, and the future of them I encounter either in person or through my writing so that my butterfly effect is a positive force to reckon with even after I'm long gone. Thank you for the stimulating topic and I love the poem you selected to end it. Happy Weekend!
