Seeing the applications of organic chemistry?

I'm currently in orgo 1 and doing "fine" (~B+). I'd love to bump my grade up to an A, but my main problem is that I'm having trouble seeing "why" we are learning what we're learning and how it fits together. Why is understanding chirality relevant to biology, for example? I loved gen chem because we'd do applied problems (ex: nuclear science, environmental science, etc.) but I'm having trouble seeing how things connect in orgo. Any advice/resources?
