I Think Not!","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe definition of Coincidence is a remarkable occurrence of events or circumstances without apparent causal connection. A striking occurrence of two or more events at one time apparently by mere chance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe origin of the phrase “Coincidence? I Think Not!” is from the 2004 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eDisney Pixar\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e movie \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eThe Incredibles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. In the movie, there is a scene where \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eDash Parr\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and his teacher \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eBernie Kropp\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e are in a situation where \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eMr. Kropp\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is trying to prove to \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eDash’s\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e mom that \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eDash\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e was the one putting thumbtacks on his chair. He is trying to prove himself right by highlighting that \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eDash\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is making a minor move just at the moment when he was sitting down, to which the teacher exclaims “Coincidence? I think not!” You can view a short clip of this scene on YouTube, just search for “Coincidence I think not.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe definition of “GodWink” is an event or personal experience, often identified as a coincidence, so astonishing that it is seen as a sign of divine intervention, especially when perceived as the answer to a prayer. SQuire Rushnell first used the words “God Wink” in a series of books, the first book released just before the attacks on 9\/11. Since then, Hallmark has made four movies about “Christmas Godwinks.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI believe there are “GodWinks” that happen in each of our lives. Maybe we don’t always take the time to acknowledge or recognize them, or we just brush them off as a coincidence. As I look back over the years of my life there have been many “GodWinks” happen. At the time, I did not always acknowledge them as “GodWinks.” Only in the last few of years have I begun to understand the true meaning of a “GodWink.” Even then sometimes it is hard for me to get my head around.\u003cbr\u003eAnd as for the definition of coincidence? I go by the one I heard years ago: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eWhen God performs a miracle and remains anonymous.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn these pages you will see the word \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003ecancer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 65 times, notice that I never capitalize the word \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003ecancer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. That is intentional. I do not want to give this disease any more weight or power than it already tries to claim. Capital letters are for names, places, and things of importance, but cancer does not deserve that kind of recognition. My story is not about the greatness of a disease; it is about the greatness of God.
