BlockchainPedia #5 | PEER-TO-PEER NETWORK
When my grandmother was a young maiden, she was a feisty creature who breathed and lived opportunities. She explored life through her work escapades, random travels to ranches and green grounds that brought back youth to her aging soul, and a love affair that lasted forever; my grandfather.
Through her transition to motherhood, she blossomed and gracefully raised her 5 children with a desire to plug them into the fast pace world. She fell in love with botany, knitting, writing, and more writing.
With kids as old as 18, she shared every page she journaled with each of her kids; everyone with a copy of her work. None of them was a reader due to the ‘busy life’ but out of love for their mother, they held on to them like pieces of trophies stored in a precious box.
It never made sense at first until World War II occurred and all that was left in my grandmother’s house were shattered windows, broken doors, a widowed soul and a dark cloud of fear. Her face sank in depression, she held hands with her only surviving child to feel the last human existence as she took her last coughs.
5 years later, her son, in memory of her mother, collected all her mother’s writing and went to a well-known publisher. After a few months, a book was constructed from it all, creating one of the #1 bestseller books of all times, having sold over 3 Million Copies.
That’s the power of Peer-to-Peer Networking on Blockchain. Even if one node is down, the Blockchain can still function properly with the remaining nodes because the Blockchain is distributed through the network.
Even when she took her last breath, her presence was felt with her words through the help of her one remaining node (her son). If she held on to her work without distributing, a true author of change would never have existed.
