“My list of the best things in life” includes music that puts a smile on your face and makes you feel good all over. Like my Blog post “Don’t Worry Baby”, music is great therapy and hearing the Hall and Oates classic “Your Kiss is on My List” immediately brought me back to the early days of dating my wife ( 30 years of marriage, and 35 years of dating). Not only did it bring me back to the early years of my relationship with my wife but it also made it clear to me that we are constantly creating our own experiences in life. And what may seem a simple coincidence is actually much more.
Synchronicity is the experience of two or more events that are apparently causally unrelated occurring together in a meaningful manner. Whether you call it Synchronicity or coincidence, I believe it all happens for a meaningful reason and it is up to you to figure out what the synchronicity in your life means. So where am I going with Hall and Oates and Synchronicity ? Well, something very interesting has been happening to me since I started writing this blog, meaningful and fulfilling synchronicity is started to appear daily, I am getting back into the zone where I was completely in control of my life and able to create things almost exactly as I wanted. Miracles both large and small have started to happen but most importantly, friends, family and random people who have found my blog have started to have similar experiences. I received an urgent text today from a business associate who has been reading my blogs who wanted to let me know what a great day she had and how everything was falling into place as she visualized it. Now I know this particular person is very spiritual, has incredible faith, an awesome attitude and likes to read things like “The Secret” and similar works. So she is understands the whole “knowing” thing that was the reason I started writing this blog in the first place. What was really cool for me was that she created her day the way she always knew she could but she took the time to share her experience with me. Her sharing of her experience today sent a positive shock through my body of knowing we can all create exactly the lives we want and that thought (good or bad) is contagious.
Hall and Oates, what role do they play in today’s post ? That’s another fun story I would like to share with you today because it is a great example of the incredible sychronicities in my life. A few months back while searching Facebook for old friends, neighbors and business associates, I ran across Bren. Bren or Brenda as I knew her back in the 60’s and 70’s was the cute Blonde from across the street in the neighborhood I grew up in. Bren was a year younger than me but I had a crush on her during my entire elementary school experience. Back then, and I suppose at that age, you never hung around with girls in a grade below you and besides I never thought she had any interest in me. But I always had that crush and anytime I had the chance to give her a ride on my Schwinn Apple Crate bike, I always was happy. Well it turns out that Bren is a huge Hall and Oates fan, which was interesting because my wife when I started dating her in 1975 was also a huge Hall and Oates fan. I have enjoyed Hall and Oates ever since my wife first played “She’s gone” for me from the “Abandoned Luncheonette” album. So last week, I am checking out the news feed on Facebook and Bren posts that Hall and Oates are going to be in town and she wants to know who’s going with her ?. I jokingly, immediately posted that I was going. I really wanted to go but couldn’t justify spending the money at the moment. So after posting my reply, I forgot about it, then late last week Bren sends me a message telling me that she has two extra tickets that my wife and I could have. Wow, I couldn’t believe the offer so I told Bren I just had to check with my wife to confirm. Saturday rolls around and I tell my wife about Bren and the tickets, she was thrilled, so I immediately confirmed with Bren. Now that was all incredible and fun but listen to this, so my wife and I decide to go to a movie that afternoon, we decided to see “You Again” with Jamie Leigh Curtis. Now, we decided to got to this movie just minutes after I confirmed with Bren about going with her to the Hall and Oates concert. My wife and I really knew nothing about the movie except that Jamie Leigh Curtis was in it. So we are sitting in the theater, eating a HUGE bucket of buttered popcorn when all of a sudden the couple in the movie are playing the Hall and Oates song “Your Kiss is on My List” on the radio, now that may seem like just a funny coincidence to you but to me it was synchronicity and a reminder to me that I played a role in the events that had just been created. Even better, at the end of the movie and rolling into the credits, Hall and Oates and the cast of the movie sang “Your Kiss is on My List”. While I always enjoyed that song, I never remembered the lyrics including the line “The Best Things in Life”, when I heard that, I knew the Universe was sending me yet another message about why happiness is the key to everything and when you know the outcome of your life, you can’t help but be happy.
You can have all of the Best Things In Life, you know you can, you just have to visualize your list of the best things and sit back and watch them show up. I am adding something to my list of the best things in life, getting everyone to know they can create incredible experiences in their lives. I know you can do it and I know that in my life, cancelling out the media has had a major impact and changed the way things are going for me. I no longer listen to or watch any of the major news networks including my favorite Fox news, I don’t pay attention to the political nonsense going on in this country (I do intend to vote and I know my intuition will guide me to the right candidates), I have turned off talk radio in favor of audio programs from Wayne Dyer, Mike Dooley and Joe Vitale. Yes you could say I am brainwashing myself with positive, fulfilling and uplifting messages, and yes the brainwashing is working, I am washing out all the dirt and replacing it with clean new information. I hope you will join me in creating incredible life experiences and if you get a chance, a text message, blog comment or email would be great, I love to hear about people and the great experiences they have created for themselves. Get to work on your list of the “Best things in life” and make your life the best !
