Coincidence?
It´s been a while I don´t believe in coincidences anymore. Synchronicity is a better and more proper word to define when you really need something and it just comes in hand. Haven´t you realized that once in your life?
Just today there was another beautiful synchronicity in mine. I had scheduled to meet a friend after a class and chose the wrong bus to go and meet her...lots of traffic made me be late 1h. When I got off I saw her message saying she was going to wait for me at a bakery. OK, I had seen in the map more or less where I should go before this change. To avoid waiting for the app to bring me my location I asked someone on the street who...sent me to the opposite side .
I walked for about 15min and not finding the street and with a bad signal, asked two gentlemen who gave me the right directions...I was 6 blocks away from where this bakery...Gosh...sent her another message saying I was coming in 15min. It was 15ºC with a sensation of 13C, cold air...I had my coat which I took off for the much I had walked. Was turning when I saw a man in a car on the opposite side I was asking if I wanted a ride. I thought very quickly: no, I´m not a bomb shell to receive a ride offer in the middle of a residential area :-) As I´m farsighted I didn´t recognize the man who had just given me the correct direction. Second though: hey, you, that must be the guy who helped you... And then I went, him and his father and I could make it in less than 15 min. She was already eating, but the most important, in the bakery waiting for me.
These synchronicities happen pretty often with me, which I believe it´s because I thank God/Universe for something (very simple) I need like a bus to take and I´m too tired to wait for a long time.
I believe that synchronicities also happen to show you your way, the best way, the way to follow....You know when you receive a few NOs, usually in a row, in few days? Listen to these NOs, or even very tough situation you already tried to solve. When you want to solve something by doing one action and it doesn´t work. You try, doing something else...still not work, another and ...nothing...time to let it go and let yourself flow in order to open ways for you.
First time in Europe I was so excited and just wanted to rent a car to go wherever I wished. A friend had told me: take the bus or the train to meet people. When he said I liked the idea of people, but not the transportation but that remained within me, even though I had no idea about it. After being robbed in Paris and still had to solve matters with credit card I spent 3 hours in the restroom of Genova (Italy) airport (the lounge was incredibily noisy and then I could understand why lots of people in Brazil are noisy...rs...rs..I´m an Italian descendant.
So after having talked for 3 hours with the bank in Brazil, spending the same amount of money with mobile bill I had spent on the tkt Brazil-Rome, I still couldn´t rent the car I had reserved. The clerk was offering some other solutions. I was so p... ff with that bank that talking to him was a relief. It was then when that shy voice that lives within us give the power of its appearance: take the train (I didn´t know that there was a station nearby). And immediately I thanked him and said I was taking the train. He still tried to convince and I should have looked so confident that he just said: grazie, bella signorina ..ahahahaha....I love Italians, they make you feel very good.
That was the starting point of not insisting, but persisiting. Going back to my inner being to ask my doubts, thank God and listen to my intuition....nowadays, it´s not only a shy voice and I follow it more than ever. Before that I said I followed my heart....our intuition is within us...don´t know excatly where but I feel it in the middle of my chest . It´s the fist sensation, sutil, so you quietness to listen to it, and it´s completely separated from the mind.
The time I spent with my friend today, my former dentist, was completely profitable, rich, energetically great...lots of knowledge...things I had no idea that existed (sometimes I feel I´m getting crazy for they are too incredible). One of them may help me decide about where to live ....one thing I´m sure now: Brazil is the heart of the world and this is not, being a Brazilian, playing snob....I´m much more into the spiritual side _/_
