Coincidences

[denis567]

Have you ever noticed how often coincidences happen?.
Last week on the TV show 'Perfection', one of the final board subject choices on offer was 'Jimmy Hoffa'.
I am in my mid seventies and I had never heard of Jimmy Hoffa. The next day I was reading Jodi Picoult's 'Picture Perfect' and the name of Jimmy Hoffa was mentioned.

He was pretty famous, or infamous.

He may have been mentioned numerous times on TV/radio but because of the context you may not have paid any attention to it, whereas if you were following Perfection closely you noticed it, and will now probably remember it the next few times you hear it

Wow.

I definitely notice lots of coincidences in my life. I can think of someone I've not heard from for a few months, then next day a letter comes from that person, also happens with emails too. There's many more things that have happened coincidentally and often I'm quite amazed at how they do.

Has anyone else noticed such things in their everyday lives?

The odd coincidence that kees on re-occurring with me is when I am on the phone or online and speaking/reading/typing, with the TV on in the background, I hear the same word on the TV that I have just read/typed/said. It happens an awful lot.
