Synchronicity

syn·chro·nic·i·ty ( P ) Pronunciation Key (sngkr-ns-t, sn-)n. pl. syn·chro·nic·i·ties
The state or fact of being synchronous or simultaneous; synchronism.
Coincidence of events that seem to be meaningfully related, conceived in Jungian theory as an explanatory principle on the same order as causality.

Has it happened to you anytime...this thing called synchronicity...well, i tumbled on this word quite accidently (serendipity...more on that later) some days back. Was in a contemplative mood that night, could not catch a wink even at 1 o'clock at night. I saw my dear hubby sleeping like a baby and could not get myself to wake him up (like a normally do...i know, very mean of me). So i decided to get a good read instead of counting sheep. Walked into the living room, and there was this book lying on the center table waiting to be picked up. Frankly, I had bought this book from Crosswords many moons back but never had a better opportunity crossed my way like this. So grabbed it with both hands and started turning the pages. The books name 'Even Eagles need a push" by David Mcnally was quite a pick up line even when the book was lying tucked away in a corner in the book store. So was wondering why had i even waited for so long to go beyond the cover page. I have always believed that in life, there is a time and place for everything....and a reason too. So, I guess this was the time, place and a reason all coinciding together as in falling in place or should I say....Synchronising.

So coming back to the book, I saw this lovely sounding word "Synchronicity" typeset somewhere in the first few pages of the book and I fell in love with it at first sight. And what a beautiful meaning, it almost took my breath away.
The extremely busy lives we lead nowadays, we fail to even realise the wonderful coincidences happening around us. They could have been small, big, trivial or important events that take place connected with our lives and we dont even know it happens

Its like some one said "Life is what happens when you are busy planning other things".Well, SOMEONE was indeed a wise person.

Next time, keep your eyes wide open, ears to the ground and senses tuned in to the right frequency. And then like a rare sight of a shooting star you might just witness a miracle at work.
Life is Magic...you can never know what to expect.
Experience it!
