5 People Question 2

The quote, "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," to me means that, even though we don't realize it, we have an impact on the lives of everyone we come across. One of our little accidents could cause someone around us their life. On the contrary, something positive we do can also effect others in a good way for years to come.


You need to choose one line or group of lines that you've read so far in the novel and tell us what you think it means.  You then have to respond to at least THREE of your classmates' posts.
