They can e to us as a great change in our physical reality or as a simple coincidence in our lives. Sometimes they39。re big and can39。t be missed. Other times they39。re so subtle that if we aren39。t aware, we may miss them altogether. They can e from the lips of a stranger we suddenly and mysteriously meet at just the right instant. If we listen carefully, we39。ll always hear the right words, at the right time, to dazzle (目眩) us into a realization of something that we may have failed to notice only moments before.16
