What is the function of gravity?

I have been reading that the strength of gravity is just enough, just right. That if it were any stronger or weaker the Universe would be completely different. Some sources will make a statement like, stars would be too dim to support life....but then again, maybe LIFE simply would have evolved differently.
Because of this and because it is a subtler force than the other forces, I am thinking of its effects as a kind of soup....a medium that gives all things support enough to interact, but 'space' enough to move apart. In this way, existence is free to move, come together and move apart, giving room for limitless possibilties.
