On my way to the station today, I almost ran into an auto-rikshaw. Unlike most days when my thoughts wander away (which is quite often) I was quite alert today. With hands on the brake, the rear view properly adjusted, my speed too was quite less and in control. And suddenly I found myself ramming onto my brakes struggling to stop my scooterette. Not that the guy in front of me goofed, well, it just happened.
It happened in a way I couldn't understand - what, where, when, why and the how of it.
So does everything that happens - just happens. Is it a chance a coincident?? Some things just happen - they don't seem to have a rationale or a logic. And I am wondering why???
How do we explain the coincidences in life? Well, we call it destiny. At times when I say, "It was destined to be" I get a reply, " No, it was just a coincident". Well, if so then can you explain a coincidence?? Well, I cant explain destiny either. The only thing I perhaps can make sense out of is that - Coincidences make destiny. Its an unexplained PHENOMENA!!!
A lot of things I guess are beyond us. Science says there is no God, we can't explain it. Well, can they explain coincidence. What is it we call a coincidence and why? When we meet someone on road some old friend, just like that... we call it a coincidence, When we happen to be in the same city planning to meet a friend since ages and cannot - and then one fine day we bump into each other in some other part of the world its a COINCIDENCE; A Phenomena - Unexplained, yet true.

well...u right
so are phenomenon like deja-vu and sixth sense...
unreal, but right there in ur face...inst it?
the 1st half and 2nd half dont connect... bumping into a frnd ... thts a coincidence ... w/o doubt...
but.. the 1st half.. thts just being aware of situation... sumtime v r lost in thought...
so connecting these to destiny... is not quite rite... my view is... destiny can b made by us... if it was 4 destiny... a person can bcom millionare w/o doin anyting...
imagine... if any1 says ur achivements were bcoz of ur destiny... tht means.. efforts r not repected...
hmm... think abt it..
Its difficult to say as to..do things happen on their own... or is it destined to be...
Coincidencs are not really coincidences if u look close...years down the line you may find a link to what happend and u may justify...
If you read the Alchemist... the dude in the book says that there are two ways to live
1) let things happen and follow the flow of life (that what is Fate)
2) Do what u Sincerely believe is true and go against all the odds just to follow your heart. (thats Destiny)
well i pretty much think this is true
all in all... Nice Post :D
Well most of the times ur "lost" in thought when ur thinkin of somethin u really dont wanna think about...atleast conciously...we avoid a lot of thoughts...about things which r happenin around us...but we wanna ignore...save the thoughts for a more opportune moment...but ofetn that never comes n our mind just starts the thinkin with our permssion...n hence we get 'lost". Also when we really wanna meet a friend n that person appears...its telepathy more than simple coincidence...its when really the realm of para psychology...science has been able to explain that to a great extent
