More Twists Than an Episode of Lost

About 10 months ago, someone left me a comment on Livejournal asking for suggestions on brasilian literature. This person had a friend who wanted to buy a novel from Brasil (translated into English, of course) because her co-worker was flying to South America on the first stretch of a year-long tour of the world. It would be a present for her, an introduction to Brasil. Was that you [livejournal.com profile] androktone who asked me about the novels? Or was it someone else? I can't remember...

The girl who flew to South America used to work in my current office. The girl asking around LJ for brasilian literature suggestions was [livejournal.com profile] dollydiscord, my predecessor. I drew a list of books for a girl I didn't know, who worked in an office I couldn't dream of one day joining.

The links between us, when found, can vibrate with a strange and comforting resonance... as if there is meaning to everything, but what that meaning is remains ever elusive.

Another day, another freaky coincidence. Conversations on ghosts, witch covens, curses, clones, long-lost family members and magic no longer seem out of place.

I was trying to remember that word... serendipity. I was talking about something similar to another friend, only I was using synchronicity. ;-)

I think it may have been me.

A-ha! Can you remember what I recommended? I think it's all coming back to me. :-)

It's all so strange! :)

The Log Lady is certainly an appropiate photograph for this entry.
