Life is mysterious in many ways. Strange things happen, and we don't know why. "That there are no random acts. That we are all connected. That you can no more separate one life from another than you could separate a breeze from the wind." was said by The Blue Man. This quote explains life very well.
"That there are no random acts..." in this part of the quote it means everything happens for a reason. Things may be accidents, but there was no way to change what was going to happen. People blame themselves for tragic accidents, when, sometimes, they have no control of the situation. Take the accident at Ruby Pier for instance. Eddie was a maintenance worker, and did a very good job at keeping the rides safe, but when the ride stalled he had no idea it was going to happen. He did his very best to keep the people on the ride safe, and even sacrificed his own life.
"That we are all connected. That you can no more separate one life from another than you can separate a breeze from the wind." is the last part of the quote is saying that every action a person makes is going to affect another. If you make a good choice or a bad choice, it affects other people. In Eddie's case, during the time he served in the war, he and some of his fellow soldiers were kidnapped by the enemy. When they finally escaped, they wanted to get revenge, so they set fire to the enemy's camp. Little did Eddie know, the tent he picked had a little girl inside. She was killed, and that was the fifth person Eddie met in heaven.
This quote has taught me many things. People can't change things from the past. It's better not to blame themselves, because it just weighs you down. Everything happens for a reason. Every choice someone makes is surely going to affect someone else. After all, life is a strange mystery.
