From Adriana's journal again: The Magoo Theory of Super-Lucky Living. This strikes a concept in religion of how important spiritual sensitivity is in everyday life, not just when we want stuff badly enough to listen intently. The small nudge of, "You should take another way home from work today" could be important; you could meet a guy who asks you out on a date who then gives you a lead to your dream job. And you never would have met him had you not followed that nudge to walk down this street instead of that one.

Of course, the next natural theological question is, "Now, Kate, do you believe in luck?" And That sends me into a brief plunge of deep philosophical-theological-like-thinking. Whew.

There's a kid that I go to school with who put out a CD last year, a lot of soft rock, folky kind of stuff. Good for mellow afternoons with a cup of tea and a cat. Anyways, his name is Noah Lawrence and he has this song called "The Hope" that has a line that I thought of as soon as I finished reading your entry and the link within it.

"They say decisions that seem tiny when you make them
Change the whole world you're heading to
If a butterfly could flap its wings and shape the cosmos
I could have rubbed my eyes and not seen you"

It's a really beautiful song. If you want, I'll make you a copy of the CD or send you a couple of tracks or something. Let me know. (If you want me to mail anything you'll have to e-mail me your address again, I don't have it anymore)

I love to think about what little things we do make the big things happen and some we never will know about. Life is filled with tiny paths that shape the big path we are on. Theres a theory out there that says everyone is connected by a string of 6 strangers...now that is just a crazy thing to think about too.

That'd be Six Degrees of Separation, actually. I did props for a play of that title last year. You'd enjoy it, I think; it's really intense.
