Synchronicity

Chapter 5: Synchronicity

I have often heard that synchronicity is God’s way of communicating. Synchronicities are like the crumbs of bread that lead you back to your path getting you on track again. Some will argue that it is all coincidental, and that is fine, to each their own as always.  But after so many years of observing what we call synchronicity and coincidental happenings, I do not believe in the latter. 

What I love most about synchronicities is that they mostly transpire as little things placed within our daily lives. For example, I was thinking about should I go to the Tattoo Expo, or should I not go to it because I really could not afford to, but I really should go because from a journalist point of view, I really could not afford to not go … and so the wheels of my mind turned as I stood on the sidewalk waiting for a bus to arrive. As I stood there, I noticed the VUE Weekly paper in the newspaper box and grabbed a copy. As I flipped it over and looked at the back page my eyes immediately fell upon the half page advertisement for the Edmonton Tattoo & Arts Festival. You just can’t make this kind of shit up, seriously. 

Some of the most profound learning experiences for me came in the form of being connected by a series of synchronicities. In my book Flight of the White Crow, I have shared one of these stores and called it, The Eye of My Ego. Life has taught me to never underestimate the connection we have to all things around us, whether that be people, animals, situations or music. Life itself is a communications device. And when we pay attention to the conjunctions, life becomes even more interesting.
