"That there are no random acts. That we are all connected. That you can no more separate one life from another than you can a breeze from a wind." That was the lesson the Blue Man had to teach Eddie for either of them to move to the next stage. The Blue Man showed Eddie how his actions affect both him and those around him. To me, this mean that everything that happens to you or someone else has a purpose. Nothing is meaningless. Every end leads to a new beginning.
Whether you recognize it or not, your life is impacted by people and things every day. The crater left by this impact may not be significant, but it still leaves a mark. These situations vary from your pastor running into you on the sidewalk to a homeless man begging for change at an intersection. Not only can someone impact you, but you can alter their life as well. It could be as simple as a gentle wave to the new kid in school or as significant as pulling someone out of a burning vehicle.
There are no coincidences. Everything that happens is part of a greater plan. The way you say hello to someone could determine their attitude for the rest of the day, or have a far greater impact. Nobody's life is meaningless. Everyone has a purpose.
