exactly a year apart.
And then looking up the cartomancy meaning,
because obvs it must be a message from the universe.
Experiencing coincidence and having faith enough to
discern it as a meaning sent from the universe just for you,
can only be a form of delusional insanity.
Maybe, maybe not.
What's it to you?
Coincidences that are boring don't count,
it's gotta have that *ooohh it's a coincidence!* sparkle
and rarely means anything other than that.
Mine:
Yesterday:
#1 Lunch with M,
song on the radio is Fleetwood Mac's Little Lies.
"Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies",
it gets stuck in my head,
I get home and the next chapter in my book is called "Sweet little lies".
*Sparkle Coincidence*
[#1.1 - I also told M that I liked Mac Demarco
which was playing in a shop.
Mac Demarco - Fleetwood Mac.]
*Boring Coincidence*
#2 Then the second next chapter in my book,is
"Live each day as if it were your last - but only on Sundays".
was about Psychologist Ellen Langer manipulation technique, "because",
which was the exact same research example T told me about a couple of weeks ago
in a different book on manipulation he was reading:
Queue at the photocopier:
"May I use the Xerox machine because I'm in a rush?"
*Sparkle Coincidence*
.
I tried it on him after he'd told me about the technique
"Do you want to come over later,
because I want sex".
I can't remember if it worked or not.
[#2.1 Yesterday day was Sunday and yes I lived it as though it were my last,
because I do not know when I will die,
so everyday potentially could be my last,
did I make more of an effort?
No.
I'd die sooner if I lived like everyday was my last
due to exertion, therefore inertia is the key to a long life.
Thus that line, like in my book, is proved bullshit]
*Boring Coincidence*
Today:
#3 I buy geometric patterned fabric
to make a top from.
I type "batwing top pattern" into Google,
first picture is Dollface,
styling her home made batwing top.
*Sparkle Coincidence*
I should end it there, because it started with her and ended with her.
Neat and tidy.
Full circle.
Look around you, they're everywhere, they just need someone to recognise them and ascribe meaning to get that *Sparkle Coincidence!* feeling.
Reminds me of the lovely line by Alain de Botton:
"Perhaps it is true that we do not really exist until there is someone there to see us existing, we cannot properly speak until there is someone who can understand what we are saying, in essence, we are not wholly alive until we are loved."
