When all you can do is laugh...

Single at 30 years old, I find myself reflecting on what might have been the craziest 2 years of my life. Let me define crazy for you... has something ever happened that was so bizarre, so out of the ordinary that you had to take a look back at all the things that lined up in order for that particular event to happen?

Shocking... the realization that any little change in event or timing would have resulted in a totally different outcome, you have to consider that it "happened for a reason".

Let me tell you about a time...

Earlier this year, I was seeing a guy whom to this day I question may be the love of my life, let's call him JOHN, we lived in the same survey at that time (literally a 500 m walk door to door). We hadn't seen each other in months after a fall out - not even driving through the neighbourhood.  On this particular Tuesday, a song that I have always associated with him that had been off the radio for a long time played 3 times that day.  I kept questioning the relevance and couldn't get him off my mind.  By the time I got to the gym (20 min from home) that night, I was distraught.  A good friend changed his workout to push me through mine and let me talk the situation out. Needless to say, my workout was extended far longer than the norm. A friend came by during the workout to say hello, which then led to me checking my bb to see the time, finding a message from my mom who was in the area and wanted to have dinner. I bailed on the last set of my workout, showered changed and flew out the gym door. Hopped in my car, pulled out of my spot, drove down the aisle and BAM!!!!!! Just missed a head on collision with JOHN, who swerved and threw his hands up only to realize it was me before turning what would have been the middle finger into an awkward wave. Close call... and what was he doing there? He had cancelled his membership at that gym while planning to relocate to another province.

At times I think I must be going crazy, then I realize, all of these unlikely coincidences must be there to serve some purpose in my life.  The crazier they get the more I realize I've hit a point in my life where sometimes all I can do is laugh...
