synchronicities

so i sign into my igoogle today and one of the applications i added to it is 'places to see' - a photo that changes each time i refresh the page. sometimes there are places i've actually seen, sometimes there are places that are on my own personal 'to see before i die' list.

what was pictured today? pura tirta empul in tampaksiring, BALI INDONESIA.

riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. um, i'll be there in about 4 months.

there really are no coincidences. everything is perfectly orchestrated. perfectly.

so that leads me to my list of daily blessings:

• i'm thankful for doctors who know what they're doing. mom had her ankle surgery today which was supposed to entail a breaking of the ankle to fix it with a cadaver's ankle. turned out that they didn't need to break it to fix it - which means less work, faster recovery, less pain. all extremely good things.
• a warm and fuzzy bed that cradles me everytime i get in it.
• synchronicities - they remind me that there really are no coincidences. they remind me that there really is a grand plan to all of this craziness. sometimes it reallllllly doesn't seem that way - but when little things like the photo of bali pop up, it just reminds me that things are really going just as they should...
