Synchronicity abounds

Coincidence 1) Yesterday I received in email an explanation of the Christmas Carol The First Day of Christmas, and a few minutes after receiving it, a neighbour put a card illustrating the Carol through the door - see below. (If you would like the explanation, feel free to use the comments box to request it, or email me).

Coincidence 2) Vic and I went late night shopping and as we stood in front of the range of sauces such as Tabasco, Reggae Reggae etc, an American guy wearing a back to front baseball cap picked up several bottles of something and put them in his trolley, then came over to us and handed us a bottle, suggesting that if we were looking for something a bit different, we try it, (apparently it’s a bit like Tabasco sauce, not as hot but slightly more flavourful). He explained it was American (like him). He reminded me strongly of John, our friend from Texas who came to visit last year from whom I hadn’t heard for a while. As I thought of John, I predicted to Vic that I would receive an email from him today – sure enough I did.

Coincidence 3) This morning I read today’s
Word for Today which speaks of freedom, and then turned to lesson 332 in ‘A Course in Miracles’ where again I read of freedom.
