The quote, "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." means to me that each life is connected, each life can impact another without even realizing that it is happening, and each life is significant.
Each life is connected because all lives mean something to another whether it be family, friends, or strangers. A friendly stranger may help grab something off a shelf or help you cross the street. In The Five People You Meet In Heaven, Eddie learns that his life was connected to Marguerite's even though she had passed away years ago. He learns that his life is linked with Marguerite's because he loved her.
Each life impacts another unknowingly by simply existing. The stranger that helped you across the street could have saved you from getting hit and killed or hit and injured just by helping you. Eddie was the cause of the blue man's death and he did not even know it. He ran out infront of his truck causing him to swerve and shock him. The adrenaline from this fiasco caused him to hit a parked car and crash resulting in his final breath. Eddie understood that if he had looked where he was running to he may have prevented an early death.
Each life is significant due to the phrase we are all connected. A mother may not serve a purpose to a stranger but serves a purpose to her child. The child relies on her for its needs. Eddie, throughout each lesson, begins to understand his meaning and how he prevented a little girl from dying early. Nick, the boy who just got the keys to his car, lost his key in the wires of a drop ride causing it to crash down resulting in Eddie's death. Nick's life played a significant role in Eddie's death with one small slip up.
The quote represents all life. A breeze can not be separated from a wind because a breeze causes a wind to flourish and spread. One life can help another whether it be bringing another one or saving another one.
