Rippling effects

Imagine, the pond is calm.
What if you had a stone?
What if you have a target?
What if you have a point to make by throwing the stone at the target?
What if you had the right to do whatever you wish?

Think, what if you had hit the target.
Think, about the rippling effects the waves will have on the shores.
More so, think, about the difference if you could just put the stone down and walk away.....
