Connected



"That there are no random acts. That we are all connected. That you can no more separate one life from anothate one life from another than you can seperate a breeze from the wind."

What does this mean to me? This means that everybody is connected in some way or form. The stranger you passed on the street earlier while walking to a friend's house. You are connected to them somehow. A stranger you've never even seen, talked to, or met. They have some connection to you. This prompt makes a lot of sense to me and makes me think about everybody I've ever met, even the ones I've only ever passed on the streets. We are all connected somehow. The reason that you went to the library and the book you planned on checking out was already checked out, it happened for a reason. Whether it was you finding a better book or going somewhere else and meeting your new best friend. Everything happens for a reason. "There are no random acts."

Another example that there are no random acts, say you were at a stripmall going to get something for your parents. You pass by PetCo and they are having adoptions for puppies. You decide to adopt one since a particular one had caught your eye. Two years later, there is a burglar trying to break in. Your dog scared away the burglar, saving your whole family and all of the belongings. Now, if you had never adopted the dog, who knows what could've happened.

That's what the prompt "That there are no random acts. That weare all connected. That you can no more seperate one life from another than you can seperate a breeze from the wind." means to me.
