The quote "That there are no random acts. That we are all connected. That you can no more separate one life from another than you can separate a breeze from the wind," to me means that, even though we don't realize it, we have an impact on the lives of everyone we come across. One of our little accidents could cause someone around us their life. We need to be careful not to put those around us at risk.
I don't think anyone actually realizes the impact of their decisions until they see a drastic result. We can't expect there to be no consequences from the decisions we make even if it's a simple decision. There is a price on every decision that is made by anyone, and not just for those they know. The biggest impact could be on someone that they never knew. This quote should have everyone that reads it thinking back to a dangerous decision. Like running into the middle of the street chasing a baseball perhaps? Try not to let one of your decisions be someones last moment.
