An Interesting Coincidence?

Last night I had a "talk" with my higher power. You know, some call it God, some call it the Universe, whatever you want. I was meditating, praying or just communicating. I wanted to feel a connection. I focused on asking for some sort of sign....that would let me know that I was not forgotten.
Today I was running errands. At the first place a man called out to me and said "Is that a fun car"? I responded that "yes indeed it is". He asked if it was a Mazda Miata. I answered yes again. He the told me that he was jealous. I told him that if it weren't for my parents death and a small inheritance I wouldn't have that car. He smiled at me and got in his car.
"Ok" I said to myself that was cool. Was it coincidence? I get a lot of people asking me about my car and admiring it so I didn't think anymore about it.
Until later when I was running another errand. I was walking up to the store in the parking lot and a perfect stranger (another man) started talking to me. He asked me how I was doing?????!!!!! I said "I was doing pretty good" and asked him how he was. He said that "he was fine and that he was glad to hear I was doing well". I know I did not know him and he kept on walking after the verbal exchange.
Now I thought, nope this was not a coincidence. The universe/God sent these two people to me today to connect with me because that's what I was asking for last night.  I asked for what I truely needed and was appropriately answered.
All I can say is wow!

Lost in the Universe

Here I am a soul without a purpose. I am told there is a place for me here in this universe. I do not see it. I have asked, demanded, looked forward too, expected and ignored it. I do not find or get the answer. I go out everyday to try to do something that can be construed as purposeful or good. I keep a positive attitude for most of the time. I am tired of floating around. It is bad enough that we don't know where we are going or where we will end up but the worst is not having the path. I can't find it and am getting tired of looking for it.

I feel like I am missing out on something and it is huge. I should be in on whatever it is I am not. If I don't know what I am supposed to be doing than how do I know what to do? I am tired of this. My father always said to "keep the faith". I think I have lost it somewhere. Now I have to find that too!

I think I can now understand why some souls elect to leave the physical body. It is too painful. I know I will probably keep going and waiting and trying to secure that feeling that I belong and am doing what I am here for but it is getting harder by the day. I know there is no one out there that can help me but me. I am trying hard not to feel sorry for myself. I try hard to count my blessings. I try hard to read the "Letter to the Universe" at least once a day. My resolve is weakening.
