Fabled Collective

Let's do some dreamwork, shall we? Last night, I dreamed I was listening to a song—an obscure one I’d never heard before—when a total stranger began singing the exact same lyrics at the exact same moment.  

He couldn’t hear the phone. He just felt compelled.  

I believe it was a message from the Universe/God/Source. A sign of alignment. A soul song passed through generations.
