Human Magnet

Three years ago I began to notice that coincidences were happening all to often with me. For example, cars pulling into their driveways right in front of me, or parking next to me at stores, or even people having to be right by me when it was not needed. These are just a few quick sneek peeks at what i'm talking about. But these incidents have made me question if there is more to it than it just being a coincidence. Is there some spiritual message I should be paying attention too? Is it somebody from my past who has died, and decided to have fun with me by sending people to me? Or am I just paranoid? I hope you can help me figure this out! It's really annoying because it happens all the time.


So as I said three years ago this all began to come to my attention. At this period in time I began to go for runs of maybe 3 to 6 miles every few days. Now I dont like to be bothered by anybody when i'm working out or out running, so I would go between 8 and 9 at night just to avoid people. My running would take me from residential streets to lakeside paths. It was very enjoyable for me because i got to be alone for a while and focus on what needed to get done. It also helped me clear my mind as it tends to race all over the place with my scrambled thoughts. Which I think has more to do with my undiagnosed learning disability that nobody believes me about. But I will discuss that in another blog later. To get back on track, I began to notice that even though i was running past house after house, the very few cars I came across that time of night would pull into their driveways right in front of me. Now just thinking about it real quick your thinking SO WHAT! The thing is these cars could have arrived at any time. But they didnt! They had to show up at the exact time I reached their driveway. Its very annoying when a car slows up behind you and then pulls into their driveway right in front or behind you. Aaaargh! And just so you know, this happened every time out running NO LIE! Just me and one car, and they had to turn into the driveway i was crossing not the driveway three houses down. ok.





Another thing happened to me while out running. Suprise! Suprise! I know. There were not one car but two cars that screamed at me "Run Forrest Run!" I understand that that may not be a coincidence but I bring it up because that happened to me. And I'm upset about it.





This summer and last i decided I would move my runs to Sunrise Middle school by my house. This was because of two things: One I wanted to test this coincidence issue i was having with cars. And two because I wanted to do more sprint work than longer endurance runs. i thought i would be free of any issue. I was so so so wrong. Sunrise Middle School, so you get the picture of why I shouldn't have had any problems, has a huge track with a football field inside of it and large surrounding fields with very beautiful green grass. The amount of space i use at this large field for sprint work is probably 1% at most. VERY LITTLE PEOPLE! There is room for everyone.


My problem at the school was that no matter what time I went up there, no matter where at the school I went to run, somebody had to enter my space on the field. My space i consider to be 25 to 30 feet around my perimeter. I have many examples to use but Im only going to tell you about two of them that made me very mad. The first one I happened to be inside the track that day, alongside the long 100 yard dash side. Now I was only using 40 yards that day at most. Nobody else was up there with me or insight at the fields. Just me! It was no more than fifteen minutes that i noticed a vehicle with two guys (one younger around 25 and the other older around 50 i would say) show up in the parking lot. This parking lot is located on the opposite side of the track with a huge field inbetween them. As I was working out I kept my eye on them as they were irritating me. The thing that irritated me even more is that they decided to walk all the way across this huge field and start stretching within 25 Feet of me. I stood there in disbelief. They then proceeded to play catch with their frisbee in my sprinting path. Finally one of them said "Maybe we should move over." Im still standing in the same spot in complete shock wondering what is going on here. The funny thing is they only moved 20 feet over or so. This field is Humungous! They could have used any part but they had to use the same piece of grass that I was using. That angered me terribly.





The second issue I had there dealt with two children. They must have been brother and sister in maybe...um...six grade. That day I decided to run next to the tennis courts which is located by the school and parking lot. Once again no one else was up there at the time I arrived. At first I stretched out and then placed some markers out for me to sprint too. While I was warming up i noticed these two kids walk across the fields toward the school completely avoiding me. Which I was Okay with. They soon disappeared into the school and Without further delay I started my sprinting. Now I completed two sprints when I noticed the two kids exit the school. Instead of leaving the same way they came. They entered the tennis court area and made their way toward me on the other side. At the tennis courts there are doors to get out of on all surounding sides. These two kids (who by the way were carring Big foot pillows!) exited the tennis courts out the very door and area I was running!!!! Are you Kidding ME! Im scary looking! Stay away! they should be scared of me. I wouldnt have gone close to someone like me at their age. But thats not the end. Oh no! they sat down five feet away from me and layed down on their frickin pillows! And then did gymnastic somersaults and cartwheels!! Why?

Im not really finished but I hope you got the Idea. There is more to it Trust Me. For Example, People always seem to need to park by me or sit by me or you name it, there right by me! I apologize for not being grammaticly correct but as you can see i have more problems to worry about. Help Me Please!!
