Just some thoughts I'd like some input on...
--------------
If you were to take a knife and slice the backside of your hand enough for you to bleed, in order for the wound to reconstruct you would need to first wipe away the blood and then tend the wound.
If you washed your hand with just water it would rinse away the plasma, but not necessarily disinfect any germs that were resident on the knife. Wash with soap, and you may receive better results. Disinfect that wound with hydrogen peroxide and you may notice little bubbles indicating the wound being cleansed through the use of alcohol...
In summary, the more love and care you show for that cut by means of protecting it from harm (dirt, etc) - essentially the faster that cut is going to heal.
In microscopic terms: nerve cells, and in macroscopic terms: nebula(e?) in far reaches of space, can be seen as similar.

Assuming that implies a replication of patterns on an infinite number of levels (example: fractals (http://www.google.ca/search?q=define%3A+fractals&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a) , would it not be then fair to assume that we are perhaps cells within a greater organism?
Specifically, what if humans, animals, plants, and everything on this earth are just cells on the organism of our planet... Detached, attached, whatever- we're all bound to exist in relatively the same space by the pull of gravity from the mass of the earth.. We are all from the earth, and we will return to the earth once we die (decomposition, etc).
If that were true, let us scale back down to the cells on our hand...
When a cut heals, (pardon my crude example, but I'm no biologist) different things contained within the blood are solidified over the wound in the forms of a scab. If the scab is left to heal, over time it will regenerate and almost no wound will be seen, depending on the size of the cut.
If no care is given to the wound, again, it will contaminate and healing may take longer, or even leave a nasty scar. Clean the wound daily and you'll reduce chances for scar tissue.
What if, as cells in a greater organism, people were to follow their instinct.. intuition if you will.. What if we weren't distracted by the daily 9 to 5 (or whatever hours you're forced to work) and you were able to always do what 'felt right'.. In the example of the cut on the hand, the cells on the right side of the hand can't 'communicate' by the cells on the left side of the hand, though they both work at what they're programmed to do to (instinct) to achieve a common goal - correcting the wound. What would be the consequence of people working toward their instincts? Perhaps would there be greater synchronicity in their lives?
If we are cells, then I would say absolutely yes - We would be driven by an unobservable force perhaps? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_brain)
How DO cells communicate with the master planning wet-ware within the head? If the cut is in the hand, do they just KNOW what to do? Sure, neurotransmitters travel between neurons and are passed between dendrites as they instruct each other, but we don't fully understand how this process works.. We just have a model based on our current understanding of reality.. Hell - This site: http://www.sfn.org/index.cfm?pagename=brainbackgrounders_howdonervecellscommunicate compares neurons to broccoli! (There's those fractals again)...
Lets assume people are neurons. Lets assume our actions are our neurotransmitters. If we act on positive intent, would that then not propagate throughout or circle of contacts (presuming we're able to maintain that positive intent).. It could be assumed that perhaps the Global Brain would then connect us with other positive cells which would result in a growth in our success towards whatever "Goal" we were meant to accomplish... Only.. we get distracted by things like money and status...
I propose you practice positive intent whenever possible... I'm a believer in synchronicity, and I am a skeptic of things also, only I've experienced it first hand on several occasions. After years of trying to make sense of my experience this is the only thing that really makes sense to me, and quite honestly I'd love to have my theory proven false, but it just keeps appearing more and more the more I have 'faith' in the concept.
It doesn't 'mean' anything, but you may get meaning from it. Just because you haven't been to Disney World, doesn't mean the place doesn't exist.. The same can be said about a connection to the divine.. The one thing common in human history is a constant recurrence of god or god-like archetypes.. These could be considered all parts of the same story, when you step back and consider the possibility..
My two cents. Spend them how you may.
--------------------
No one knows the worth of innocence till he knows it is gone forever, and that money can't buy it back. Not the saint, but the sinner that repenteth, is he to whom the full length and breadth, and height and depth, of life's meaning is revealed. Good and evil loose all objective meaning and are seen as equally necessary and contrasting elements in the masterpiece that is the universe.

particularly the fractal references.
there are too many "ifs, buts, what ifs".
