Do You Believe in Synchronicity?
I’m a firm believer in synchronicity. This is a term coined by Carl Yung, it means a meaningful coincidence that has a low probability of being a random or chance event. A couple of days ago I was speaking to a magazine editor who asked me if I had heard of the property magazine Aqar. I told him I had never heard of it (we have LOTS of magazines in Bahrain now). A day later the magazine shows up on my door step! It was being distributed in our area. I flip through the pages and see a photo of an old friend. Good for him I thought, he seems to be doing well for himself. The next day I get an email from him asking me to speak at an event, how interesting!
A coincidence? Yes, but a meaningful one. That is synchronicity.
