I'm sure there has been a thread on this topic before but I'm not up to digging.

We are currently going through a very sad time here and my husband was feeling pretty down this morning, when I noticed that the swallows had returned for the first time today.

I had made a couple of birdhouses last winter to put up this spring and suggested to counteract our gloom, that perhaps now was a good time to go and "put a little birdhouse in our soul".

As he got the tools out on the kitchen table, the song that I hadn't thought of for years, until a few minutes prior, by They Might Be Giants, Build A Little Birdhouse in Your Soul, started playing on the radio. We both got goosebumps and burst into tears.

Anyone else sometimes floored by synchronistic events?
