Synchronicity
Thinking about a friend you haven’t seen for a while and they call. Reading about something you didn’t know and then later that night at dinner, you over hear the couple in the booth next to you talk about the exact same thing you just read about. Wearing a t-shirt with a picture of one of your friends on the front and as you leave a New York Airport Hotel the person coming in does a double-take and is in shock that the person on your shirt is their older brother. Synchronicity can take on any number of forms. The meaningful things in life are not left to chance. The most insignificant of events will often lead to a major change in life’s pathway and plans.
Some synchronicities are obvious and immediate. For a brief moment we are granted a glimpse of the miraculous. Others may not become apparent until decades later, or never be obvious in this lifetime. In fact, the reason for synchronicities are not necessarily even for our benefit, but for others perhaps not yet born. It’s all interconnected, inter-related and changing a detail can have vast and far reaching implications.
A relatively new science called Chaos Theory says that out of chaos and seemingly total randomness, comes order. Synchronicity happen all the time, but we are not always aware of their existence. It should be obvious through the very nature of synchronicity itself that there are physical components, as well as psychological components, involved in its creation. This brings up the question of the nature of the relationship between the two. Between the creativity of the human mind and the hypothesized pre-existence of order. Synchronicity is around us at all times all one needs to do to notice these little notes from the Universe is become aware of ones surroundings. Aware of every bit of information, thought and feeling. A whole new world will open up and reveal itself to you.
