Just when you think that you have things all figured out
the game changes
It never fails
When things are on cruise control and life seems fair
something happens that throws a twist or a curve to screw you up.
Does this phenomena a have a name
Something of which we can lay our hands on
something we can grasp and understand
Someway to define the very nature of existence would be called by some fate
destiny, or maybe to coin a phrase "shit happens"
In todays world of high speed communication
and instant social gratification how does something subtle slip under the radar
How did we not see that coming
Everything appears on the outside to be normal
There is no outward sign that things are about to change.
Then bang!
The whole world is upside down and nothing makes sense.
WTF happened is a phrase used often to describe our feelings
Profanities usually abound and take the place of any words used to describe the situation or our emotions. SOB, MF, damn, just to name a few.
Do we have any control has been the subject of much discussion over the course of history.
Have you ever thought something, read something, or discussed something with someone and then later that day, week, or month you read or hear on the news that something has happened related to that topic?
We are all connected
Not sure how but we are
Too much weird shit happens to not be
For instance yesterday I was reading an article on line about drinking rice water to improve your health. The article discussed how to boil the rice and then drink the water. Then I get up today and somebody in Atlanta burned 70% of their body with scalded rice water
"Atlanta — A teenager is hospitalized with burns covering 70 percent of his body after two other teens attacked him with a pot of boiling rice while he was sleeping."
WTF? Is there just too much information and news that is coincidental? I don't think so. Or, maybe these little shits read the same article and thought that would be a great way to fuck someone up? Who knows, most people don't care, but I do...
We are all connected
Not sure how but we are
Too much weird shit happens not to be
A couple of weeks ago I was talking to someone about his new job at Booz Allen Hamilton and the next day I get up and bang there in the headlines a jet liner goes down with two Americans on board and where do you think they worked? Yes you are correct, Booz Allen Hamilton, and to top it off one of their last names was the same as someone of whom I am related.
And of course these are all negative occurrences which leads me to believe the truth about evil ruling this earthly world discussed and written about for centuries by different religions and sects. To protect themselves early civilizations came up with all sorts of crazy rituals and gods to protect them from the unknown weird shit happening around them.
Fate, destiny, or coincidence. These three words are used to describe phenomena that cannot be explained. Who thought up these words and why? Lets do some more research on these three words:
Fate;
noun

I am digging this weird sister thing.."the three goddesses who preside over the birth and life of humans."
Ok I got sidetracked... I know...get on with the story...Knyuck, Knyuck...this is serious stuff...
But this does not describe the connection between thought, occurrences, and connection. So lets go a little farther:

Put them together:
