The quotation "We are the cause of our own obstacles," by Meister Eckhart represents how life is. The quotation means that the problems in someone's life are caused by that person's actions. I partially believe this statement because I believe that yes, your actions affect you, they also affect other people as well, causing problems for them that they did not bring on themselves. If I decide to put an object on a railroad track, when the train comes it will derail. I will probably go to jail for my actions which shows that I brought the trouble to myself, but it also affects the people…
