Coincidence? Or a reaffirmation?

Almost every conversation I have been having lately has been almost immediately followed by an occurrence that either answers the question posed or presents an alternative view on the subject just discussed. Now I was raised in a Buddhist upbringing believing that the Universe makes no mistakes. Dreams, words, thoughts and actions can all be brought into existence and one's destiny is in one's hands. It lead to many an interesting debate with devout Christians growing up lol. But i say this to say that I was almost raised to believe that there are no coincidences. When something happens so closely in alignment with a plan or a desire it's the universe speaking to you. Before I digress and go into an entire metaphysical conversation where I get emails about long ass entries, I'll give an example:

Several times last night my partner in crime and I got in several conversations about Obama winning this election. The worries about it, the perils that lie for him in this country should he win. Almost immediately following one of our final conversations for the night before bed, I read this on one of Head Cases sponsored blogs Tell It Like It IS:

"During these trying times, I ask that you continuously keep Barack Obama and his family in your prayers & thoughts. There are a lot of people in the world aiming at his head not for what he stands for but just because of who he is. Those who support this HERO have a duty to fulfill by going out on Nov. 4 and voting FOR BARACK OBAMA.
And in the meantime... please... just say a prayer!" -Snap on The PETRO

Question addressed right? Then I woke this morning to a VERY random comment on my MySpace page some acquaintance that went a little something like this:

Pretty straight to the point right? LOL time will tell 20 days left...

I'm blunt...and rather observant...DUH that means I should blog! I suffer from, no let me rephrase, I combat living with an AVM on a daily basis. An AVM is an Abnormal Veinous Malformation which affects about 250,000 people in the US (http://www.cumc.columbia.edu/dept/cerebro/AVM.htm#Link8). It affects everyone differently, for me it's caused a constant headache since 2003...litterally. I've been in countless doctors offices, been poked and proded, been through the emotions of being misdiagnosed with a brain tumor. Needless to say, I've been through a lot and not just because of my...let's call it an ailment. Above all I've developed a less than common outlook on life and perception of things.Don't for one minute misconstrue, I'm in no way a victim, I'm self-sufficient almost to a fault and encourage others to turn their weaknesses into empowerment. It builds character and makes for one hell of a screenplay ha! That combined with growing up immersed in a semi-charmed world, and the glitz and glamour of Hollyweird leads to some interesting anecdotes...Here are my thoughts...

There are many other Headcases in the world...here are a few..
