"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, this quote explains how we are not just people. We are all one. Everyone is connected whether we like it or not. Something about the words, "That you can no more separate on life from another than you can separate a breeze from the wind." really hits home for me. It makes me wonder about my future and who I might meet that will alter my path and change my life forever. It is crazy to think that I am somehow intertwined with people all around the world that I do not even know.
Later on down the road in life, I may change deep down for better or for worse and someone I do not know may be responsible for the change. Things like this happen on a daily basis. According to Mitch Albom, these are the type of people you meet in Heaven. I accept Albom's way of thinking, about Heaven and about life. I think I will remember this story of Eddie, particularly because of this quote. The novel The Five People You Meet in Heaven really will be retained in my memory for the rest of my life. I will remember how all lives are connected and no one can separate a breeze from the wind.
