Coincidence or Destiny?

The year was 1991. She was seeing a boy who worked at a fast food restaurant outside the normal places they hung out at. She went to visit him and, in passing, said hi to one of his coworkers. Coincidence or Destiny?

June, 2006. She was bored and playing on the internet. She went to a high school's webpage that some of her friends had gone to and started clicking through the names. She came across one name in particular, looked and moved on. The next day she went back to the webpage, clicked on the name from the night before and sent him a hello. Coincidence or Destiny?

June, 2006. He said they probably shouldn't talk because they will fall head over heels in love and they will be linked forever. Coincidence or Destiny?

July, 2006. She posted an old picture of her and her friend at a goth club in Florida. She discovered that the man from the webpage was a photographer and the girls in the picture used to model for him. Coincidence or Destiny?

November, 2006. He came to visit her and took her to see his cousins. It was there that she learned that his cousin-in-law used to work with her friend that lives in Florida. Coincidence or Destiny?

April, 2007. They hadn't spoken for two weeks. She was running late, trying to catch her train and saw him standing in the train depot. Coincidence or Destiny?

June, 2007. She got a new job. It was one direct block from where his office is located. Coincidence or Destiny?

October, 2007. They were having problems again. She left work early and came into the train station from a different direction. As she was walking in, she saw him walking in from a different door. Coincidence or Destiny?

October 15, 2007. Her heart was breaking, her center was lost. She stood on the porch, looking into the moonlight and concentrated, sending her energy into the Universe to bring him home. She laid down in bed and saw headlights turning into her driveway. It was him. Coincidence or Destiny?

She lived in Germany as a child, he speaks fluent German. Coincidence or Destiny? Her brother's name is Rob, they call his brother Rob. Coincidence or Destiny? She didn't believe in love, he didn't believe in love. Coincidence or Destiny? She is a Sagittarius, he is a Sagittarius. Coincidence or Destiny? Her birthday is 12/5, his birthday is 12/15. Coincidence or Destiny? Before she met him, before she knew what he looked like, his is the face from her dreams. Coincidence or Destiny? 15 years passed between the time they first met to the time they reconnected. 15, the date of his birthday. Coincidence or Destiny?

I don't believe in coincidences. There is a reason for everything and everything happens as it should. When so many things happen that can't be explained away by mere chance, it is your destiny. You can try to fight it, but it will be a losing battle. Things are what they are, they are as they should be. All these "chance" circumstances are simply the Universe telling you what is right. You can't ignore the signs. It only prolongs the inevitable. You have to embrace your destiny because only then will that restless, empty feeling leave you. Love is the center of the Universe, it is the balance of all that exists. When the Universe is giving you these signs, nudging you towards your Love, you can't back away. Until you become One with Love, you will always feel lost. You will never have balance. Go to your Center. Become One and find your peace.
