i first had my encounter with the book the celestine prophecy by james redfield when i borrowed my mom's copy a looooong, long time ago. (i checked the copyright, it's 1993. so that must have been around a decade and a half ago.)
all i remember from the book now is that there are no coincidences. everything that happens has a significance, we just oftentimes don't realize right away.
well, i am at my parents' place now and i decided to re-organize the books on the shelves which have fallen in some sort of disarray after having been taken out and piled just about any which way with the house repainting which ended just yesterday.
well, i again came across a copy of the book. i flipped through the pages trying to find that coincidence message which has stayed with me since. guess what, 246 pages, i was able to locate it right away. hmmm...
i re-read. and now i have so many questions, so many thoughts. why is this person in my life? should i really keep distance? isn't that decision keeping us from moving to a higher and better plane? how about this other guy? and that one, too. how do each of us fit in the big puzzle? why this? what that? ugh!
i'm thinking now instead of reading these books maybe i should just concentrate on the bible. but then i somehow always feel guilty whenever i am reminded of the what-God-hath-joined-together-verse... : (
my, my, my... it is a holiday. i don't want to be thinking real think at all. i want things to be light and easy. next time, i'll limit myself to glossies...
