Hello guys,

Just want to share a weird and special situation I had last week.

Last week-end there was a big event in Trois-Rivieres, Quebec, where the public libraries of the region were selling old and used books.
There was around 30 big tables with tons of books all mixed together without real categories. So if you wanted a specific book there was no way you could know where to look for.

I was thinking that if I'm lucky I will find some good books but I will have to spend many hours digging the books all over the tables.
Then I started walking around the tables with no real hope to find the books I was looking for (philosophy, religion, sciences, magic) when bang...on top of a pile of various books, right in front of me, the book of Robert-Houdin "Les confidences d'un prestidigitatreur".
Absolutly incredible, I was astonished and it was a little creepy. Robert Houdin was waiting for me and made his way to put the book right where I was.

I'm a scientific, very rational but I have to admit that this situation is shaking my beliefs...

PS Sorry for my english, but I really wanted to share this experience with the magic communauty.

Huge co-incedences happen every minute of every day, does it have to be anything else?

It would have been more impressive if it had fallen off a tall bookshelf and hit you on the head, but congratulations on your find anyway!

Alan,
Me too I'm always fascinated by these kind of synchronicities. And even more since I'm actually reading some of the great philosophers who are questionning the whole picture of life and its inter-relations.
