I pulled out a $5 from my wallet and I pulled out the couple bucks' change that I had gotten from the store, handed the clerk one of the ones. I stopped at the store prior to hitting the deli that I normally hit.Īnd I got some change, went to the deli, ordered my sandwich. And I was about to go out to lunch and I was thinking about asking her on a Friday date that I had set up. What are the odds of, as I'm cutting out this letter E, they would talk about that on a show? And I was so confused about it.Īnd I thought maybe it was time to get exclusive or become boyfriend/girlfriend or whatever it was. You just happened to run into a person twice in one day. And I thought, well, maybe she's just envious of my great coincidence.Īnd I was sitting there like, are you kidding? Mine was so much better. And then I didn't really hear back from her after that. And so I immediately called my grandma and was telling her about it.Īnd she was like, oh, uh-huh. And it said, on the show, I've studied the seven sins and the most prominent one is envy, as I was cutting out my letter. So as I was coloring in my letter and cutting it out, my mom was listening to the show Monk in the background.Īs we were watching it, I was literally cutting out my last line on the letter E for envy. So we had to create our own letter out of paper and then we had to safety pin it to our shirt and wear it around school the entire day. And I was- once we finished the book, our end project was we had to come up with what our sin was or what sin we struggled with the most. So then, a while ago, I was doing a project in my English class. That people find stories that happened to them far more surprising than the same stories happening to other people. Coincidences feels so rare, and that sticks with you, even when the coincidence is barely a coincidence at all.Īn academic study of people's reactions to coincidence stories from the early 1980s found that we have an egocentric bias toward our own coincidences. But since I started hearing all these coincidence stories the last couple of weeks, I've reconsidered. At the time, I thought it was lame- that maybe Esther was losing it a little. This woman had seen the advent of cars and movies and computers and space travel, and this was her answer. And he said, I have a friend in Shelter Island by that name. She thought for a while and then she said, the most interesting thing that happened to me was that on my first day at Patrog School, the principal said to me, what's your name? I said, Esther Tuttle. I asked her, admittedly, a rookie question- what's the most amazing thing that's happened in your life?
