Yes, you read that correctly, and no, the doctor is not a quack. Apparently, the global wind and weather patterns have stirred up this very fine sand, launched it into the upper atmosphere, and dropped it in our area. The impact ranges from a quiet Atlantic tropical storm season to congested sinuses.
When I heard this story, I quickly
thought of a central concept that we often forget: every change affects
everything. Or said another way, everything is connected. There is no such
thing as making an isolated change in life.
When you make one change, there will always be a ripple effect. It’s impossible to anticipate all of
the second- and third-order effects that will be caused by a change.
So the next time that you’re considering a change, whether big or
small, remember the sand from the Sahara."
