Coincidences

* Joydot of the day: fresh raspberries from my garden!




I thought that being in recovery was its own reward.  But the longer I follow the recovery road, the more benefits seem to come my way.  It seems to be cumulative.

I have now discovered the beauty of coincidences.  They seem to crop up more and more frequently nowadays.  I really wasn't expecting that!

I think it must be tied in with this 'trust' thing somehow.  I'm still working on the how.  Although perhaps that not for me to worry about.

So, take this morning for example -

Coincidence #1
I've been meaning to get my carpets shampooed for ages.  Cream carpet?  Pets?  Yeah, I know!!  I even went as far as to pick up a leaflet from my local supermarket for more information.  These things take time to plan, you know? <chortle!>
So today Mr Freecycle posts about a carpet shampooer up for grabs not too far away from me.  I respond and received an email to say that I can go and pick it up tomorrow.  Wonderful!!

Coincidence #2
A month ago I entered an online competition for drama/singing/acting lessons for my extrovert daughter.  I'd forgotten all about it.  Within half an hour of receiving the email from Mr Freecycle, I receive a congratulations email to say that my daughter has won the lessons!

How cool is that?!
