This post does ramble on somewhat, so make sure you have time to read throughout it all, as if you just skim over it, you might not understand.

Have you ever experienced a coincidence? Of course you have, every person on this planet has. But have you every really "thought" about what it could mean?

Let's take this back to square one, what is a coincidence? Simple, it's a collection of two or more events or conditions, closely related by time, space, form, or other associations which appear unlikely to bear a relationship as either cause to effect or effects of a shared cause, within the observer's or observers' understanding of what cause can produce what effects. (Taken from [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] )

Now, that seems kinda confusing right? I think so, so let's re-define what it is. So your with your friends, your 18 years old, and one of your friends gets a call from his mother, who is married to a marine who is constantly re-locating. Your friends mother tells him that they have to move within the next couple days. You say your goodbyes, all that jazz. 20 years later, your in your car with your wife and kids, you drive by the exact same spot where your buddy got that call all that time ago, so you say "I wonder how my buddy James has been, i haven't seen him in over 20 years...". The next day, you read the newspaper, and you take a quick glance at the obituaries.. What's that? Is that? No way... it can't be.. Yup, your buddy died in battle, a brave soldier, following in his fathers footsteps. Coincidence? Of course. How? The fact that you had just remembered your long lost friend, and then read something about him, can be mind deceiving, and as i said, a coincidence.

So back to the definition, a coincidence can be a form of events that take place with the same topic over a short amount of time. But the funny thing about coincidences is that there has to be an observer to point one out. Who could this be, well simple, it's you. Did you ever think that things happen for a reason, that there was a specific timeline of events that were dedicated to your life, that happen every single day of your life? It could be possible, but then again, it could be not. Did you know that all the digital data in the world is equivalent to one human brain? Yup, it is. Hard to believe? Kinda, remember we only use 10% of our brain. So what is the other 90% of it doing up there? Well it could be doing many things, but did you ever think it could be planning? Plotting what is going to happen next? Figuring out your "life timeline" to see what happens next? I think so. You reading this post right now could be an event in your life timeline. But now we're getting off track, coincidence. A part of our everyday lives. Sometimes it could be the same event in multiple peoples life timeline, ever really thought about 9/11? (If you don't know what 911 is, please click [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] ) Now i know this may be a touchy subject, as some of your family members, friends, or other people you may have known or met have been involved in this tragedy. So we'll keep it simple and to the point. Did you ever think that 9/11 was meant to happen? I've read over some articles about Osama bin laden and some conspiracy's about how he was with the government, but that/s not what we're talking about here. Here's my view on coincidences, they happen because your mind makes them happen. You may not notice it, but it may happen. Without your mind, there are no events in your life, (depends what your view on death is) so don't you think it makes sense that your brain has the power to create your life events and put them in a specific order, that makes the so called "coincidences" ? Tell me what you think TTG, do you think the coincidences that come from the events in your life are planned out, and that they happen for a reason, or do you believe that your life follows unplanned events, and you just live life day by day, making your own life?
