If you look to the significance of lights or connections and trace it back to its origins, you can better understand why it had to be (a certain way).
What if, back then, the seed to a certain (time sensitive) tree was not created and sowed or if it was destroyed?
Obviously, you would not be able to reap the fruits from that tree.
What happens when you do not have the fruits of that fruit tree?
What is the significance of not having a particular tree, light or connection?
Time will tell (but only if you seek out its significance).
The importance will reveal itself in the consequences.
And the impact will reveal itself in time.
