Noting the Coincidence

the Dictionary defines COINCIDENCE as 'when two things happen at the same time, in the same place, or to the same people in a way that seems surprising or unusual'.

Often people consider a coincidence as something destined to happen.Why?

Things happen by chance
or
do we sub-consciously i.e. knowingly make them happen....

Yet, there are times when we take note of the coincidence much later. These could be the best thing that may have happened to us in a lifetime......... or the most unlucky incident of our life....

Politeness

I have often noticed people in service centers respond in the most polite manner, with full courtesy and a smile - friendly and warm that does wonder to calm the irate customers; much to the benefit of the company they work for.

Then, I often feel have we ever tried applying this magic to our lives?
Why can't we control that snide remark, the sudden spurt of anger or the killer look in our eyes while dealing with people known and unknown?

running after yet running away

Strange as it seems we all are running after something in life to run away from someone.
The gal next door is working so hard to earn money so that she doesn't have to be financially dependent on her hubby... In a way she is running after money to run away from dependence.

and another guy is running after clients to gain maximum leverage. basically he is not interested in settling down at a meager income. he happens to be chasing money to avoid compromising comforts later in life........

BUT
the question is are we cowards who refuse to face the challenge of accepting the situation bravely and be contented with what we have.

After all, if we get over obsessed with something, we would finally start hating it....

WHAT DO WE ACTUALLY WANT?
