Of Coincidence and Random Thought

Did you know your coffee pot talks to you? It doesn't talk to you in words, necessarily, but it does communicate. If you're addicted to coffee (like I am), you pretty much never miss its call to you in the mornings. However, some of the things it says are not necessarily everyday occurrences.

Have you ever been drawn to the coffee pot--almost as if something is wrong? You can't figure out why you are thinking about a stupid old coffee pot, yet there it is, on your mind? Maybe you need to go get some more coffee soon, but you remember there was still enough coffee left to make your daily dose in the morning. You put off going to the store.

The next morning, you get up and go to your coffee maker, only to discover your spouse or other household member (who usually doesn't drink coffee) must have made a pot while you were gone and there is now not enough left to make anything more than colored water!

Believe it or not, this really is your coffee pot talking to you (and the coffee container telling you it was empty). It (as part of this vast and infinite universe) was trying to tell you all is not right with your world. And you weren't paying attention. Again!

Coincidence, you say? In my experience, there is no such thing as coincidence. We are drawn to the information we need to help us get along in our daily lives. It may be a little thing or a big thing, but most of our random thoughts are not really random at all. They have meaning and purpose if we know how to interpret them!

This is why it is important to pay attention to the little things--especially if your mind seems drawn to them over and over again. Something in the universe is trying to get your attention.

Becoming conscious is a matter of becoming aware of the signals that go on all around us every day. Granted, some information will impact us more than other information in our daily lives, but if it comes into your awareness at all there is probably something there that will effect you or someone close to you. Pay attention!

The information we attribute to coincidence or random thought is really there to make your life easier. Learn to pay attention, and your days will become much smoother and free-flowing!
