The New Dealer Cards Is Fate

It seems as if fate itself has crossed my path once again This time with the complete polar opposite cards in tow Offering me the same deal but this time in reverse When 1st he came he set in motion the opportunity and circumstances I was enabled to buy my grandad and mother's family home Now recently as this past week circumstances have changed and what began as an initial thought or contemplation of selling has morphed into an actual plausible reality A house on our road someone bought in order to fix up to sell on but decided instead to give it to his son to move into So out of curiosity I thought id ask him if he was interested in buying mine and the next morning he came a knocking at my door He came inside took 1 look around and asked me what price I wanted for it went away only for a little while later to tell me Yes he wanted to buy it all I had to do was give him the go ahead and he would get the ball rolling straight away So from an inkling of a thought in less than 3 days I have gone from thought to having to make my mind up and a life changing decision And am I supposed to or should I take all of these occurrences falling into place somehow as a sign , serendipity or good luck Destiny or fate either way it looks as if a massive life change in my future is a foot I like and much prefer change rather than the every day norm as it offers little in the form of excitement and something to look forward to I just hope I am not about to make a monumental mistake that I will come to regret But hey as they say nothing ventured nothing gained And at least I won't have to spend any time wondering what would have happened if I hadn't tried it or given it a go Bonus is I get to keep all of my most precious treasured memories as they aren't up for sale I get to keep for life Whereas a house that doesn't feel like a home anymore is merely bricks and mortar
