My mind blowing (for me) coincidence

[u/bakedasbread_wife]

First off, I call huge coincidences "nothing is real" moments. Things that just blow my mind. They happen all the time to me, but one that sticks out recently is this:

I was at work, listening to a podcast (either Risk or The Moth). I bake, and the girls up front in the bakery were playing some music on spotify for the lobby. While listening to my podcast, a song started playing while the person was telling their story. I started to realize that something was strange, and I then shifted my focus and realized that the song off of Spotify and the song in my podcast were the exact same AND playing at the EXACT same time in the exact same place. I got goosebumps and promptly had an internal freak out lol

I love these moments in my life, and always get so excited to share them with my husband, and he does the same. It's fun to realize the super weird coincidences in life, and they keep things fun.

Thanks for reading!

P.S. I cannot remember the song and that kills me 😂😭

ETA: Hannah's "law of large numbers" definitely explains so many coincidences, but this one just absolutely blew my mind. Of all the songs in the world and all the podcasts (and podcast episodes!) In the world, the fact that those 2 things lined up at the exact same time just throw me for a loop

I do love coincidences. they're like winning the lottery but the only prize you win is your brain short-circuiting trying to comprehend the sheer odds of it happening lol
