"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."
The quote above means all lives are intertwined in some way. Simple good acts such as giving a homeless person spare change or buying lunch for a friend may resonate throughout the lives of many. Not only might the ones receiving the gifts appreciate the giver`s selflessness, but someone else may notice the kind acts and become motivated to act generously. The next person may create a chain of king acts would never know where the chain ended. Negative acts are also connected. They may be used for good by others or they may cause bitterness and resentment. People often do not realize the effect of their actions on others. Actions towards a person could make or break their whole day or maybe even their whole life. People do not realize that life is one big chain of events strung together. There are no random acts. Every heartbreak, every person, and every lesson has meaning. We may never understand of each event until this life has ended.
