At times, things happen that are so uncanny that they seem to defy any explanation. In these instances, all we can do is capture the moment and share it with the world. Here, we put together a compilation of pics showcasing some truly remarkable coincidences that will have you questioning the role of fate in our lives.

6. “My husband Ken found a mini-plastic version of himself at HomeGoods.”

7. “One month ago, my sister found a tiny egg and gave it to me. I put it in a jar not expecting anything. But today it hatched! I’m a father!”

8. “A puppy I adopted can’t get her right ear to stand up, just like my 3yo German Shepherd.”

9. “An owl fell down the chimney.”

“I’m a member of a weird secondhand finds’ page on Facebook. In that group, a random lady found this shirt in a thrift store and posted a picture of it, not knowing who it was. My friend tagged me in the post, thinking we looked alike. I posted a selfie, and the thread blew up.

In that thread, the person whose face is on the shirt commented! His name is Conor, his friends made the shirt as a joke for his 40th birthday, and one of the friends donated their shirt to the thrift store.

After this all happened, the woman who found the shirt went back and bought it, and mailed it to me! As a ‘thank you,’ I had a similar shirt made with MY face on it and sent one to Conor and to the woman who found and mailed me the shirt. It’s all pretty confusing, but it has been the highlight of my week!”
