One Action Affects Another


"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 the breeze from the wind” This statement means that everyone’s life is connected in one way or another. Everyone’s life has an influence on someone else’s. An event may occur in your own life that can affect so many other people. They way you act toward an event may affect how someone around you acts and may ultimately changes the outcome of events. So many things you do each and every day directly or indirectly affect someone else’s entire life. For example, one day a man runs a red light because he’s late for work. A girl was going to be interviewed that day for her first job. She was going in the opposite direction of the man who ran the red light. She didn’t see him until the last second and slammed on her brakes. As a result of her slamming on her brakes, she spilled coffee all over her interview clothes. She drove to the building with her shirt drenched in coffee. As she was getting out of her car she saw the man that ran the red light walk in the building where she was headed. She walked in the door and said,“ Sorry I’m late. Do you own the car in the front?”  He did. See, everyone’s life is connected in some way.  Maybe it’s from running a red light because they’re late for work or from slamming on the brakes because they didn’t see the other person coming. Either way, everyone’s life is connected in one way or another. The things you do, the way you act, the responses you give directly impact others each and every day.
