incredible coincidences?

You know those surprising coincidences that come unexpectedly, like a gift of the angels? Like, finding an article about a random girl that sounds Just like Me at The Moment, and having a solution to My Situation pop up that very instant inside my heart.

Like when YouTube screws up and, instead of the song you wanted to play, accidentally plays the song you really truly wanted to hear, that makes you cry with happiness and remember what you really wanted to do. Not that you missed the click. It just happened.

Like a lovely guitar suddenly (and incredibly) being available at a nonsensically low price, simply because you want it so badly, and you have no more money than that.

Today I noticed that I no longer ask “Is this real?” or, “Can this be happening?” or “Why am I so damn lucky?” – instead I ask the angels, “How did you do that???” and I laugh with them. After all, I want to learn from my peers and enjoy the learning so that I can create my own miracles when I want to. Trial and error it is!

Getting shocked about miracles – it’s a little like being a grandma who sees the computer and the internet for the first time, and goes all like “OMG, the screen is moving all by itself!!” “I can see my Canadian friend real time!! Is this for real??” “OMG my favourite concert, for FREE??” (My granny actually said, “OMG, how scary technology has become.” :D )

Hey, it’s time to stop freaking out and see, yes, it’s real, it’s normal, it’s available, there’s nothing “woo-woo” about it, and if you just put your hand over the mouse and start operating the cursor on your “miracle screen”, many more beautiful things shall reveal themselves.

I like to see something that’s about to break, and say, “This isn’t breaking.” People would protest and say, “How do you know? This looks like it’s totally broken.” And I smile and say, “Just keep looking and you’ll see.” And everyone watches on in expectation, and really, it doesn’t break. Then people say “Miracle! It didn’t break, who would have thought!” Hey, it didn’t break only because you guys were looking at it so intently. So one lesson in hand.
