signs

'everything in life happens for a reason', some say, or 'there are no coincidences', say others. i'm not that kind of person. at least, i don't believe it. i believe that we make our own lives, and that everything is a direct result of what we did (or didn't) do, not the next step in some kind of wider plan. and i don't believe in signs. but i must admit that, sometimes, there seem to be way too many coincidences.

without going into specifics, i'd recently got myself into a situation, one of those you think you want to be in but actually don't. i was already feeling slightly weary as to how it would develop, when a piece of news reached me that confirmed that i didn't want to be where i was. but getting out was, i thought, going to prove difficult (mind you, i could also see how i could use the situation to my advantage, although it was pretty wicked, for me). so it was amazingly great timing when another piece of news came to me, which pretty much got me out of there without any fuss. well, mostly got me out of there. to be confirmed. but what a relief, really!

and i know noone's going to understand this but rest assured that you are in good company and just be happy that i am (happy, that is).
