Yesterday I went to Half Price books on Capitol Hill here in Seattle. I thought I would read the GRAPES OF WRATH
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Grapes_of_Wrath
Haven't read it in 29 years.
(Another coincidence...I was reading Grapes of Wrath when John Steinbeck Died(Dec 20, 1968))
Bought a copy.
I don't listen to Radio very much at all these days.
About an hour ago I was driving into Georgetown from West Seattle.
Scanning through radio stations I hear Woody Guthrie
http://www.woodyguthrie.org
on KEXP

And The song they were playing was
Tom Joad

hmmmm

When ever you have one thing on your mind you'll see things that relate to it and you probably have several things on you mind a once. Not to say some coincidences are caused by forces you aren't aware of. Some no on may have though of yet. It's not too surprising that things tend to follow rules in society and nature. The money has been on the physical sciences and the heck with people, right? Think of all the spheres we don't know the rules of like the mind, emotions, charisma and so on, but it's coming out. Maybe we'll always be finding something new. I sure hope so or that's the end of me. And you'd be well advised to read a few paragraphs of that free ebook on emotions listed on my profile. And the subconscious is directing a lot in the background we don't see also, although we could learn to see it more. You know their saying we may not have much free will, now, don't you?

I believe too there are no coincidences, ..hmmmmm?
Could it be true our thoughts travel out ward, especially when we are searching relentlessly (seek and you will find) It has been a many time experience for me, to out of the blue some thing comes my way I have longed for an answer and it is found at unexpected times and places, Many times it comes through books or a short reading. I have come to believe,
certain books find me, I do not find them, and in reflection
when I was not aware of this, I find it has happened to me a life time when i was not aware of it. As well as other events in my life, that leave me in awe! Blessings

yes... it is starnge sometimes how events seem to collide as if not by accident but as if the events are being governed by some power that is beyond our current ability to understand altho we seem to recognise the results or consequences... Personally, I have several instances where I might allow myself to think thatmy consciousness is acting independently... you are fortunate to have time to re-read books...

When things like that happen at same time, is a bad premonition in your life. You will be visited by a very bad spirit, that will suck all your energies.

There is no such thing as coincidence. Or luck.
