Because you were alone. Because of people.

Because you turned left. Because you turned right.
Because rain fell. Because a shadow fell.
Because sunny weather prevailed. How does the speaker use parallelism to emphasize chance

The speaker uses parallelism by repeating the word “because” in each phrase, which emphasizes the idea of chance by presenting a series of seemingly random events and circumstances.
