All Connected

In the story "The Five People You Meet in Heaven," the main character Eddie meets a blue man who tells him ,"That there are no random acts. That we are all connected. That you no more separate one life from another than you can separate a breeze from the wind."At first it was hard to understand but , then I got it. What I figure he was saying is that no man is island. It means no man can live by his self that everyone is connected in some form or fashion. For example : I have a friend who a year ago got in a car accident. He can no longer walk or speak at this time. Adam never asked for this to happen to him as the blue man didn't when Eddie was in the middle of street to cause his death. Adam was a great baseball player but now is a great inspiration. For the people he was in an accident with that didn't even know him have now seen that you can not take life for granted and faith is very powerful. The people that he was involved with in the accident never knew each other but in this they are connected just like the blue man and Eddie. People learn something new from someone that they least except and could have the most impact on your life . I feel this is what the blue man was trying to say that we are all intwind with each other if we know it or not .
