   What makes a synchronicity meaningful is its meaningfulness.   
   Otherwise it's just a couple things happening at the same time.   
      
   It might be thought   
   order emerges from chaos   
   or chaos emerges from order or   
   both emerge from something else.   
      
   It could be thought   
   thought emerges from non-thought   
   or what is unthought give rise to what is thought.   
      
   I thought I'd respond to noname's point also   
   and so I did and whether it is a coincidence Wilson did   
   and that means only that he did and not other than that   
   or if it means Wilson and I are now a level-up and have   
   made some progress in some mental culture petri dish   
   of thought might be a thought to think or not.   
      
   What's behind a point is the grid.   
   Assuming one is using a coordinate system.   
   If there is a relevant meaning there is.   
   If there is not then there is not.   
      
   Wu and yu might be Taoist terms.   
   In one chapter two appear as one divides.   
   In another chapter the latter follows the former.   
   Perhaps there is reason or meaning for that.   
   The redactors probably thought.   
      
   A sea of meaning waves its waves   
   of thought as thought sails to sea.   
      
   Sailors in the crow's nest cause   
   the ship to turn in ways.   
      
   Caw! Caw! Caw! says the crow. Caws be.   
   That's what crows do when looking and seeing   
   and think there is something to say.
