Interesting, but not funny. Everything we decide to do impacts our lives, no matter how big or small.

I wonder if people are kind of missing your point so far. Of course EVERY decision we make could change our lives and there will be numerous coincidences in life. But what I think you mean is that once in a while there can be one out of the blue weird coincidence that can turn your world around 180 degrees. It feels like destiny. Like your life is being guided cosmically.

You didn't give a specific example. Personally, I've never had a single coincidence change the course of my life. As for a decision, yes, there was one very life-changing decision I made. It was the decision to put my trust in a Jewish carpenter from Nazareth who was tortured to death 2000 years ago. My life has never been the same since.

Definitely. I'm working now in a field outside of my degree because I answered a call to volunteer 15 years ago and gained enough experience to get me a job doing work that I love. It actually started some years before that, in college, when I interviewed a man whose enthusiam brought me to respond to the volunteer work some years later.
My life took a huge turn as a result, and I think I'm a better and more interesting person because of it. I've also met dozens of people I wouldn't have otherwise. Weird, maybe, but I'm soooo glad things fell into place the way they did.

You are talking Life Choices. Yes, they do impact us in many ways and some are funny. Small choices can also make a difference, but it is the Life Choices that you make which have a greater consequence.

Everything, and anything changes our lives, whether it be saying hello to a neighbor, or telling your wife about your dad.
With a choice, comes a consequence, that consequence may not always be bad. Accept what's happened, and live for the future. It's too late to look back now.

I don't think it changes our course..it just leads us to where we are suppose to be. I believe in fate and destiny. Life's courses move you in a new light and open your mind to new experiences that constantly teach you how to deal with reality.

No. We exist in a sea of events. Sooner or later we are going to experience one of those things we call a coincidence.
