You may recall my previous posts about synchronicities. I think the most common of those occur when you’re reading and have the tv on at the same time; you may read a word at the exact second that word is spoken on tv.
Last year, the AM radio station that was popular during my teen years returned to a format playing music from the 1950’s, 1960’s and early 1970’s. So that’s what I usually listen to while I’m driving.
Here a few recent synchronicities related to the radio:
Remember the Fontella Bass song “Rescue Me”? That came on the radio recently as I was crossing the bridge into the tiny village of Rescue, just a few miles from where we live.
One of the station’s sponsors is a company that repairs overhead garage doors. Last week, one of their commercials came on the radio just as I was pulling into our garage.
Saturday night, as we were leaving our local race track, I turned on the radio. The song just coming on was “59th Street Bridge Song” (Feelin’ Groovy) by Harpers Bizarre. Do you happen to recall the first line of that song? “Slow down, you move too fast.”

And even though the Outer Banks is two hours from us, we’re able to pick up the radio station perfectly while riding on the beach. Last Sunday, while we were driving along the ocean, the song “Wipe Out” was playing.
Marshall introduced the word “synchronicity” to me several years ago. (Prior to that, I always referred to them as coincidences.) He and I usually text each other whenever either of us experiences one. And, I think Motor Man has heard us talk about them so much, that he is quick to recognize them, too. They happen quite often.
I think synchronicities are fascinating, and I would love to know if any of you ever experience them.
