Coincidence

Coincidence, if it only happens once, that’s normal.

But multiple times?

Years ago one of my friend mentioned something about the song, “sound of silence”. And the very next day, as I started the car and drove out of the street, I heard this exact song being played by one of the cars on the road, loudly.

Recently, again, multiple times the books I was reading our family’s name, the company that my kid is working appears in the same book, the town the kid is living in and the school my kid graduated.

And the book that I am reading now is about “Einstein”. Guess what, last week we went to an art exhibition, the key word of that book happened to be one of the titles of the art piece, and today I found one of the stores just opened the other day near us, “Einstein” is part of the store name.

Today one of my Facebook friends had a post about Einstein, E=mc2, free will, and such.

Those are one of the coincidences.

p.s.

Finally finished reading the book, “I AM PART OF THE INFINITY” just now. And guess what my name also appears in this book.  Though it’s not the first time, and my name is kind of not so special, but still amazes me every time.

Here comes more. The book that I am reading now, “OF MY OWN MAKING”. It quoted a phrase from CARL JUNG, who appeared in the previous book, whom Einstein met in person.

Also, today the movie “My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2” that I watched today (9/17). The great granddaughter happened to pick NYU, which the author of “ OF MY OWN MAKING” was studying this school in her real life.

And she happened to be let go of her job years ago. Though it’s different a situation than mind, but I can relate to her feelings right this moment as mine. It’s like some kind of healing process for me.

Concert in the Park

On the cool summer night at the local parks, and it’s free.

Young and old come together to enjoy the music and dance.

Surprisingly, so many seniors come alone or with family or friends.

Dress nicely singing and dancing along with the music solo, couple, or group.

What a wonderful world!

Marketing

Everywhere, they just desperately keep pushing you to spend more money, not the service.

Haircut, not the way that I am asking for, not at all.

Restaurant…

Touching

Don’t remember starting from when, once I heard the music, I wanted to sing or move with it 

Even want to act like a conductor when I hear the symphony.

And emotional when I heard some touching songs.

Young and Old

Transition, feeling like in between young and old.

Whenever I see the young generation, I think about how I looked and acted when I was their age.

Likewise, when I see the old and I think about that, it might be the future me.

Thanks

Thanks to those who have ever hurt me, constantly hurting me and whoever might be going to hurt me in the future. 

Without you guys, I won’t be seeing myself clearly, knowing my shortcomings to improve to grow.

You may be right or you may be wrong. Knowing that the only thing I can control and change is myself, only.

Joy and Tears

Joy when kids’ independence. 

Tears are when I recalled and realized back to when I first left home how hard it was for me to survive being alone also my mom was missing me.

You Never Know What’s Next

Just like what I thought that I gonna drive my old car to the end then one day it decided to retire.

And I thought about retired from driving freeways and driving nighttime. 

And this job that I thought it will be the one until I retired.

Then….

Where is the next one? Will the next one be better?
