CHANCE MEETING

Jesus the Christ is reported to have said something like --

Wherever two or three (or thirty-three) people meet together in a Context

There "I Am" is

In their midst.

In all the rituals of humans interacting

There is an energetic presence,

A quality of be-ing,

An Am-ness,

That envelops and permeates the gather-ing,

Whether the participants are conscious of it or not.

This is the universal Law of Relating-ship.

Ponder this possibility......

There are no accidents......

It is the magnetically attractive powers

Of similar individual energies

That draws people together.

Sometimes a coming-together may seem

To be accidental,

But, external circumstances aside,

What if the coming-together isn't a mishap at all?

Just because we cannot see a useful purpose,

Doesn't mean that fortuitous Purpose-fullness doesn't exist.

A meeting may have no meaning,

But, in a context of Learning Through Experience.

It may have Purpose

That may, or may not be immediately apparent.
[Sometimes the purpose of an experience doesn't show up until quite some time later]

The same may be said for the related process 

Of  moving-apart.

Jesus saw people being drawn together

By a shared magnetic desire

For Christ-like-ness.

When two or more people meet,

Each is contemplating a similar thought,

Or feeling a similar emotion.

What is that thought?

What is that feeling?

The energies that draw us together

May be constructive and/or destructive

(That's a matter of perspective)

But it is important that we spend some time 

1. Becoming aware that this is indeed how "meeting" works -- by attraction
2. Becoming attuned to the thoughts, energies, desires and motives of those involved
3. Becoming aware of what Chances arise from "chance" meetings.

It will also be helpful to review each of your present core relationships

(Including blood relationships).

Assume that it's no accident that you're in each other's face,

And ask yourself:-

• What is a common thought we're both contemplating?
• What is a common feeling we're both experiencing?
• What is this person reflecting back to me that I haven't yet owned in and for my self?
• How can we each enrich each other's experience?
