I remember feeling that there were more of them than usual. I think this is part of what coincidences are - they are also created by our attention. things that have a connection between them happen all the time, but the way WE frame them, the way WE look at them - that's what gives them meaning, which we tend to call - coincidence. :)(less)

Hi Yoav! I just finished 讛拽讘讜注讛讬讞讬讚讬 and loved it! One question, probably an easy one but I must have missed it, who is the guy who joins the community where people switch into one another? How was his short story connected to the main story? All the other stories came together.

Quotes by Yoav Blum (?)

“The difference is simple: happy people look at their lives and see a series of choices. Miserable people see only a series of sacrifices.”

“Love demands change. Love demands work. Love isn鈥檛 a piece of candy you get for being a good boy so you have something that makes you feel good. It鈥檚 hard work. The hardest in the world.”
― Yoav Blum, The Coincidence Makers

“Love is not a boom, it鈥檚 not explosions and e铿€ects. It鈥檚 not fireworks in the sky or a plane 铿倅ing by with a large banner. It鈥檚 slowly poured under your skin, quietly, without you even noticing, like anointing oil. You just feel a type of warmth, and one day you wake up and discover that under your skin you are wrapped with someone else.”
― Yoav Blum, The Coincidence Makers
