Just coincidences or Instant fullfilment?

Maybe it was just a coincidence ... this one and all the other coincidences that happen to me incrementally over my playful experimental life ...


The other day standing in front of the cashier in a one of the best chinese/asian restaurant chains (Pewei) I got very undecided about having chicken lettuce wraps or having Kung Pao Chicken. Rationally I decided it made no sense to have an appetizer plus a meal for a quick lunch so despite the voice in my head craving for the lettuce wraps I ordered the meal instead. As soon as I order the cashier looks at me and says: 'you got lucky today, you have a free lettuce wrap for your next visit". I was really surprised, like, are you kidding me? are you reading my mind? are you offering this to everybody? once I got over the surprise I moved and let some space for my co-worker to order. Of course I payed attention to see if he got anything. He wasn't lucky, he didn't get anything ...

So, I thought what I always think in these circumstances, which indeed do happen to me more and more often. Was it just a coincidence? If it wasn't, it looks like somehow my unconscious desire got transmitted into the universe and came back fulfilled instantaneously.

All of the suden, chicken lettuce wraps become very unimportant and I'm here just enjoying life and it's little funny coincidences. Then, with a smile in my face, I moved on to the next game ...
