“When coincidences pile up in this way, one cannot help being impressed by them – for the greater the number of terms in such a series, or the more unusual its character, the more improbable it becomes.” –Carl Jung

Once we made the decision to travel to New Mexico, the synchronicities continued to follow us. It was reassuring that we were on this path for a reason, but I still couldn’t figure out what that reason was. The next couple of months were a blur of mystery, confusion and excitement like I’ve never experienced.
I couldn’t sleep some nights – my mind ran in circles thinking about what lay ahead of us in New Mexico. I consumed all I could about the state. I looked at the cities we might want to visit. I planned our itinerary and adjusted it multiple times. I could hardly contain my excitement, and I was completely baffled because a few weeks earlier I knew nothing about New Mexico and had no desire to ever visit. But there I was – giddy and dreaming of my feet touching the dust of the high desert.
