Nothing is by chance .....

I'II share with you a quote from one of my favourite authors, Richard Bach:


Nothing happens by chance, my friend... No such thing as luck. A meaning behind every little thing, and such a meaning behind this. Part for you, part for me, may not see it all real clear right now, but we will, before long.




-Richard BachNothing by Chance: A Gypsy Pilot's Adventures in Modern America, 1969



Today started out like any other Saturday, I took my time getting out of the house and then started out on what I needed to do today.  A call from my husband took me off my initial journey to visit GJ's Discount Fabrics in Brunswick East (www.gjsdiscountfabrics.com.au) - I will have to revisit this journey again sometime this week or the next.

To cut a long story short, my husband and I ended up walking down Sydney Road in Brunswick, Australia.

This is where I need to digress with my story today.

On Australian TV, I began watching a show called "Meet the Frockers".  Basically the show is about how brides and their dressmaker work together to come up with the perfect wedding dress.  In every show in this series it follows three wedding dress designers and their brides.  Whilst following this series I just fell in love with the team of Mario and Ines at their bridal store 
 'CrocĂ© & Colosimo Couture' (https://www.facebook.com/crocecolosimo) I fell in love with their dresses because of their beautiful finish and design.  Besides this they had a wonderful nature when dealing with their brides and gave them much attention and had such a love of what they did. I wanted to meet them.

Back to today.

Walking on Croce & Colosimo Couture (after hours) today, like a kid in a candy store I peered through their window, then I spotted Ines in the background.  Through the door I just wanted to tell her how much I admired their dresses (they had already closed up).  Then she opened the door and I also got to meet Mario.  We had a good conversation and I got to tick something off my bucket list.

So, did this happen by chance?  Not sure, but I am so glad I got to meet this wonderful pair, they are as delightful as they appear on TV.
