One in 117,000,000,000

One in 117,000,000,000. That’s roughly how many people have ever lived in the history of the world. And somehow… we’re the ones here right now. Think about that.

In the 200,000-year story of humanity, your life is a single line in the book of existence — a blink of an eye, a fleeting moment between everything that’s come before and everything that’s still to come.

The odds of any of us being remembered in a thousand years? Slim.

But the opportunity to matter right now — to someone — is enormous.

Every day we wake up with choices:

💡 To build instead of break.

💬 To encourage instead of criticize.

❤ To love instead of hate.

🤝 To lift instead of judge.

That angry social media post?

That nasty reaction because we had a lousy day or didn’t like the pressure?

They won’t change the world.

But your kindness might change someone’s world.

We each get one life as a gift from God — infinitesimal in the grand scheme, but infinite in potential impact.

So spend it doing your best work.

Invest your time and energy in the people you love.

Be the reason someone believes there’s still good in the world.

We may just be one in 117 billion —

but the way we live our one life…

can still echo for generations.
