I'm not at all using them as proof that my intention manifested. I even said that none of the coincidences I mentioned were very stunning. I'm just saying, here's what happened.
What tends to happen to me is a string of coincidences that aren't related to any intention I have going, at least not consciously. This is why I've said that my LoA skills lack focus, and it's a main reason I am here on this forum, talking with the intelligent people who do believe in LoA and are more skilled in their focus than I am. If there is such a thing as IM, then I need practice.
My usual type of thing is this: yesterday after the first sale I went to, I drove by a park called Beaver Dam Park. This caught my attention because I was born in a little town called Beaver Dam, the 'big' town near my even littler hometown. I've spent loads of time there and my grandparents lived there and I worked there during summers in college, and I have very fond memories of the place. Which is about 150 miles away from where I live now. Anyways, later in the day, I passed a semi which was from some small company in Beaver Dam, something I'm not sure if I've
ever seen before. Then I was in another city about 50 miles away, and drove by a park I had not been past in many years, which has several of the stone bridges built during the Great Depression that always remind me of one of my favorite childhood parks which is in Beaver Dam. THEN later in the afternoon, back in my current city again, I found myself inadvertently driving on a street called Beaver Dam Drive, which is not anywhere near Beaver Dam Park, and by now of course I'm going WTF?
I have no idea what any of this is about. Skeptics would say it's just coincidence. Maybe it is. I don't know. Today there were no similar occurrences at all, the day was pretty much devoid of coincidences.
