"That there are no random acts. That we are all connected. That you can no more seperate one life from another than you can seperate a breeze from the wind." This quote tells you that nothing in our life is a mistake. God puts people or things in your life to either teach you a lesson or have an impact on them, or vice versa. He has our lives planned out for us. All of our actions affect the people around us, even if it's a small thing such as picking up a nail out of the road. If you hadn't picked it up, I garuntee you that there would be one angry person calling for roadside asisstance. Sometimes, the worst things can happen to the best people, simply because of one person's choice or descision. I like to think that we are a lot like dominoes. One movement from any of us, and we all spiral in a different direction.
In conclusion, we aren't perfect, we make rash descisions, and we make mistakes everyday. If we knew the outcome of our actions, I think we would all be more careful, but we don't. The only person who can see the next chapter in our life is God alone. After all, we are his children. The best we can do is pray that we do the right things, take it day by day, and think before we act, because as the quote says, we are all connected and everything we do effects someone or something out there. I guess we'll see when we meet our five people in heaven.
