I have not written about my synchronicity moments recently because I haven't had any. I was very in-tune with them for a while and had one or two a week, but I must be out of synch now.
Instead of describing a recent synchronicity moment I will relate one from my college days. I went to Florida State University and worked various jobs throughout college to help my parents with the expenses. This particular year I was working at a video store, you know those places they used to have where you could rent a video, watch it, bring it back and get another. My roommate talked me into rushing as a little sister at a fraternity, yes I did say fraternity, this was before most universities disbanded the little sister program. The fraternity accepted me and on the night of the initiation I was supposed to work at the video store. I didn't want to miss the initiation party, so I switched nights with another girl who worked at the store. I went to my party.
The following evening I arrived for work and was surprised to see a male employee on the schedule too. It was unusual to have two people working late in the evening. He asked if I had heard what happened the night before. I told him I had not. He said two men had come into the store and held the girl who took my scheduled time at gun point and robbed the store. The men ordered the girl to run out of the store and down the road, without looking back. She got away safely after falling and skinning her knees.
I remember thinking, that could have been me. I don't know if anything different would have happened if I had been at the store instead of that girl, but I am glad I did not have to find out. After this incident the female employees were not aloud to work alone at night in the video store.
I would love to hear your synchronicity moments.
