Dont Mistake....

Don't mistake coincidence for fate.
This is a reoccurring theme in the television series "Lost" that i am currently addicted to. It is quite interesting if you sit back and think about it, and what the saying truly encompasses. All of these little sayings that we hear as our life moves through its journey, like , you make your own luck, everything happens for a reason, and so on and so forth, really do have some bearing to them , if you allow your mind to think openly and be aware.
Today on a flight from Calgary to Vancouver i sat beside a lady who instantly had a connection with. Just through the shear timing of the situation , i helped her with her luggage into the overhead compartment, and then we sat down beside each other and began talking. It was an easy conversation wrought with insight and knowledge. Not only has she experienced similar life situations as I am currently dealing with, but she is working on a book about it all. I will withhold the working title for now, but must say it is brilliant.
This lady is on her way to Australia to be with her partner of ten years or so. Both parties are artists, writers, creators , and open minded individuals. Having been able to make a cross continent long distance relationship work through all these years and thriving on each others attributes and talents. Our conversation crossed paths such as being able to make life and career work out while maintaining priorities and following natural instinct and intuition.
This may seem rather jumbled , but i truly feel i was meant to be on that flight, in the seat beside her, and she was put there for the purpose of meeting me and becoming my friend.
Life has always, and will always work in ways that we will never understand. Those who are negative and shut out the potential will never be the recievers of some of the little gifts life has to offer. However if you are open minded and aware you never know what you may find, learn, discover, unravel , or just simply marvel at.

This ladies partner is an Australian artist famous for painting the worlds larges work of art. A truly stunning masterpiece that one becomes all encompassed within.
