Connected for a Reason

What does, “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 a breeze from the wind.” mean to me?   It simply means all things happen for a reason. Every person in our life is there for a reason.  Every situation, both good and bad, plays a role in making life what it is meant to be.  The reason and significance of people and events may not be clear to anyone.  I think faith allows us to believe that we may not always understand everything that happens.  Many people we may never meet can pave the way for us in the future by their actions.  We don’t always realize the importance of an event until many years after it takes place.  The outcome of our life is based on the things and people that we encounter along the way.  We are connected in ways we may not know.  For example, a simple act of kindness one person does may inspire someone else to act in that same way and inspire someone else.  Not knowing it, these people are now connected.  Even though it can be confusing, all things happen for a reason. We are all connected in different ways, even though we may not realize it most times.
