An interpretation of “Stranger than fiction”

Last week, I recounted the CMPE of a man named Ryan, in which he was writing a story about a stranger knocking at the door, when at that exact moment an uncannily similar stranger knocked at his door. I promised that this week I would relate the process that Ryan and I went through to arrive at an interpretation of this amazing coincidence.  Continue reading ›

“Stranger than fiction,” a classic CMPE from 1995

Recently, I was participating in an online forum on synchronicity and a man named Ryan shared a synchronicity that he titled, “Stranger than fiction.” It was so incredibly coincidental and so pregnant with meaning that I asked him if I could share it with you.

Sign droughts

I am in a sign drought. It’s been nearly a month since my last sign. Therefore, since I have no new examples of CMPEs to share with you, I thought I would share some thoughts on the issue of CMPE droughts. Continue reading ›

Another CMPE about the special function

If you follow this blog, you may remember that back in November I wrote a post called “Finding your special function.” It told about how, in order to lead members of the Circle’s online community through a process of discovering their “special function,” I had sent out a “Special Function Questionnaire.” Then, right after sending it, I received something called “The Short but Powerful Guide to Finding Your Passion,” by Leo Babauta. The parallels between my questionnaire and Babauta’s guide were numerous and quite detailed. I took the resulting CMPE as confirmation of my questionnaire and of my reasons for doing it, and wrote this interpretation: Continue reading ›

Could science investigate God?

Recent CMPEs have been opening up new thoughts for me about the future of science. Specifically, CMPEs I’ve had in the last year have given me a vision of a future science that actually investigates God. Continue reading ›

Could something be speaking to us?

I had a strange and fascinating CMPE on Christmas Eve. A new forum on synchronicity has opened up, associated with an upcoming film called Wonderland. They have been posting invitations on all sorts of relevant blogs and I decided to add my two cents. In the theory section, I added a post titled “Could something be speaking to us?” Continue reading ›
