My daughter recently purchased her first home which was a
scary process for her, but it was almost as if it was meant to be, the way
everything fell into place in every aspect. It was amazing that she loved the
house at first sight and she also became best friends with the young lady who
was her next door neighbor in a matter of few months.
During this time, my daughter discovered how similar her
life has been to her neighbor’s even though our families each came from a different part of the world. For instance, her neighbor’s mother currently
lives with her daughter, and I also had planned to live with my daughter as of
next month. Realizing the things we had in common, the four of us agreed to
have a dinner together during which it became so clear that we have been living
parallel lives – meaning that our lives have been similar and comparable in
many ways in terms of direction, course, and nature including what we had gone
through and the challenges we were facing.
We the mothers have both been divorced, we each have a son
and a daughter who are in their 30s and 40s, the girls were both born in
November, and the boys were both born in October. Both sons are living down
South - one in Florida and one in Louisiana . None of our
children are married nor do they have children, and both sons keep a certain
distance from their mother and sister for reasons similar to both families.
The Mom told us that at the time of divorce she kneeled in
front of her husband and begged him not to leave her, and I shared that at the
time of my divorce I was praying to God that he will kneel in front of me and
beg me not to leave but he did not.
The Mom told us about her own Mom’s experience talking to a
Gypsy and how everything she predicted had come true, and I shared my
experience with a Russian lady in Iran who read my life and
everything she predicted has come true, except for one prediction that I am
still waiting for.
The daughter told us that no fortune teller has ever been
able to read her so far and she was wondering about the reason. I searched the issue
on the internet and I learned that the quality of our energy, our health
condition at the time of reading, and being overworked or tired are among the
reasons.
The Mom told us about how she quit smoking (2 packs a day)
with the help of a hypnotist, and I told them about my battle with breast
cancer and how lucky I am to be a survivor.
The Mom told us that she lost her parents at the very young
age and that her mother had a miscarriage of a daughter before having her. I
shared that I was taken away from my mother by my father at the age of two
because of their divorce and that my mother also had a miscarriage of a girl
before having me.
It was interesting that both Moms liked Merlot wine, and
both girls liked pumpkin and banana flavor in everything.
I was so intrigued and mystified by the similarity of our
lives that I started to search and read about parallel lives and their
significance. At one time I came across an internet commercial about a soon to
be published book called “Parallel” which talks about collision of parallel
worlds where your past is no more yours, and your future belongs to someone
else!
The experience of the night at CIBO’s was very memorable for
the four of us - the Moms and the daughters. We hope to involve our boys in
this mystery of our parallel lives someday, but more importantly, the love and
friendship that has developed during this short period of time is something
that we will all cherish for ever.
To be continued....
