We are all connected in a way

"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 a wind."

What does this quote mean to me? At first I didn't understand what this quote meant. Once I finished the book this quote made more sense to me. This quote really got me thinking about what it really means to me. To me this quote means that even little acts, like smiling at a random person, can affect their life. Everyone is put on the Earth for a reason. For example, somebody could be having a bad day and some random person walks by and smiles at them. This simple, little act could make they day a thousand times better. Just like in the book, The Five People You Meet in Heaven, if Ruby had never met Emile then Ruby Pier would have never been built. If Ruby Pier would have never been built ,then Eddie's father wouldn't have had a job there. If Eddie's father hadn't died ,then Eddie would have spent his entire life as a taxi driver and wouldn't have met any of the people he met at the pier. This proves that even the smallest acts can have a huge impact on other peoples lives even if you don't know them.
