Unexplained mysteries

“There are no coincidences. Every event we experience and every person we meet has intentionally been put in our path to help raise our level of consciousness.” ~Cheryl Richardson

The closer we get to Halloween, the more attuned we are to all things mysterious and magical. If we’re paying attention, every day is full of unexpected events and near-magical “coincidences” that work to our advantage. Out of the blue, for instance, a card arrives in the mail from an old friend you’ve been missing and meaning to contact. Or you meet a stranger in a waiting room who gives you a tip that helps you solve a problem or leads to your dream job. Some might call it good luck — or a wink from the universe.

Still others, like author Cheryl Richardson, believe that everything happens for a reason. Even difficult people and painful experiences can offer valuable life lessons that ultimately benefit us — if we’re willing to learn from them. ~CL
