Hello,
My name is Lou Redmond.
Thanks for checking out this short little share.
Recently,
A client asked me if I believe in coincidences.
She had a synchronistic story and wasn't sure what to make of it.
I told her if nothing else,
I see them as a sign we're on the right path.
They're a nudge from the universe to keep going.
Sometimes they're small and other times they drop your jaw and leave you speechless.
This is what happened to me on Saturday.
I've shared on here having knee injury in July and I had surgery and so it's been a process of healing.
I'm so grateful to be walking again and I was strolling through the park where I decided to call a friend.
A few days prior,
I had chatted with this friend for the first time in a year.
And since he spoke of some challenges he was facing,
I wanted to check in and just see how he was doing.
As I sat on a bench,
I realized that the waterfall in the background was too noisy for a phone call.
I continued down the park's path,
Scanning the benches,
But nothing felt right.
It was either too much sun or shade,
Not excluded enough,
And the benches that looked good were all taken.
Finally,
I found my bench at the end of a baseball field and far away from park goers.
I sat down,
Took out my phone,
And all of a sudden I start hearing this loud beep,
Beep,
Beep.
So what is that?
There was a man in the outfield waving a metal detector.
I had walked through this park hundreds of times and I've never seen this here before.
Weird.
The pervasive sound forced me off my chair where I continued my search.
I scoped out the remaining benches and finally saw one in the distance at the edge of the park.
Something in me knew it was the one.
I met someone there only a few days prior so it felt right.
I sat down and what I saw on the bench made my heartbeat skip.
The bench was dedicated in memory of my friend's grandpa.
Yes,
The friend that I was walking through this whole park just to find a bench where I could call.
Holy moly WTF.
I am looking for a place to speak with someone and I get rerouted through the park so I'm sitting on the bench honoring his deceased grandpa?
Coincidence?
It gets better.
I text him and say that his grandpa is watching out for him.
He responds,
Get the F out.
We then get on a phone call.
He tells me that he was just talking about his grandpa during that same time.
Synchronicity?
Coincidence?
Come on,
That is divine mystery.
I'm not trying to prove anything to you.
We all make meaning out of life,
Hopefully in a way that supports us.
When something like this happens,
I.
E.
A sign from the deceased,
Seeing the same numbers,
Running into people at the right time,
Whatever it is,
I find it's best not to figure it out.
Instead,
We should let ourselves use it as a reminder that we are supported,
We are guided,
We are cared for.
What was it about the other benches that didn't feel right to me?
As we keep trusting our inner compass,
More coincidences find us.
We put ourselves on the path and allow life to live through us.
All the great teachings in some way tell us,
Be not afraid.
Coincidences remind us to let go and let God.
Keep trusting your path.
There are unseen forces guiding you forward,
Angels among you.
You are supported,
You are guided,
You are cared for.
Please do not ever forget it.
I send you so much love.
Thank you for allowing me to share with you.
If you want to do a meditation around this,
Just look up No Coincidences.
It should show up in a fuller meditation version.
I would love to practice with you and hopefully help you create some synchronicity for your day.
I'd love to hear what you think.
I'd love to hear of a coincidence or synchronicity that you've experienced.
Feel free to comment and I would love to also connect with you if you want to join my Circle and search Lou's Circle.
We will continue this journey onward and upward and inward.
Big love and chat soon.
Namaste.

Love this! About a year or so ago I was in Seattle for a time, working and visiting family. I was staying with a friend and on Father’s Day I drove to my mother in law’s for a Father’s Day get together. Now I grew up in Seattle and drove the street I took to her house a million times…this time, along the route, something made me look up at this little hidden amongst the trees and vegetation street’s name. It was Wayne Place…my Father who passed in 2008, his name is Wayne! I was blown away and shared the experience with others at the party but no one else seemed to appreciate the significance…I carry it with me to this day: my Dad checked in with me that day!

So my morning ritual has become getting up drinking my pint of water having a cup of coffee and listening to talks for half hour hour whatever feels right. I so enjoy yours and this one so resonated this morning. There are no coincidences. Have a blessed day and thank you for being you

Love this talk! I'm on a healing journey, was at a doctor's office & a lady who looks exactly like my deceased grandma walks in, didnt say hi, but proceeds to comment on my Alaska sweatshirt. The sweatshirt was bought for me by my grandma when we were together in Alaska 20 years ago. I couldn't stop staring this lady & her mannerisms. After my appt, I left the office, passing the lady by, she looked up & smiled at me, I smiled back. When I got to my car, I burst into tears, feeling the support & love from the Universe & my deceased grandma. Synchronicity... 💛😇 🙏💛

I was hoping you had a new talk or meditation and you did :) I dreamt of my mom for the first time in a while. She's gone 10 years and this sign from beyond felt so right, I didn't think too deeply but my day unfolded different than most. A sign for me. 💜Thank you

Synchronicities and coincidences are indicative of a 4th dimension experience. Thanks Lou, cool story!
