I think there's something up there that's omniscient and watching over us. Let's call it 'God'. Because that happens to be a label I'm comfy with.
So yea, I think you were being watched out for. If this 'God' thing happens to have a plan, you very well might be included. So look out for any special goings-on in your life...or maybe your influence will go entirely unnoticed by you.
Congrats, though
. It's not often that you -know- someone's looking out for you.
