Hark the Herald Angels sing and lights

first up, I have said many times about how I see shadows flashing past and in the corner of my eye, I also see lights.
Last night while laying in bed, There kept being just little lights flying up in the same spot, they would stop when I looked at them directly but it I just watched from the corner of my eye, it was like little fireflies flying upwards... who knows??? First sign of crazy I reckon!! ha ha

OK now to today's story, which is another "I have no freaking clue" maybe if I could get my head clear enough.. nah it still sounds crazy!@ lol :

I was in the Library today and was walking through an isle and from a shelf flew a book straight into the middle of the isle I was in.
because of the how far it flew I though someone would have had to push it from the other side of the shelf.. there was no-one there.
I keep making excuses in my head, maybe I just knocked it somehow, even though a simple knock would have never sent it that far into the isle.
To tell the truth I have no idea?! But I didn't really want to think about it till after I left there.

You ask " so what was the book?"
This is the stupid thing... it was a Christmas book called " Hark the Herald Angels sing"

LOL no idea what that is about, strange though, I am just doing some googling and found a "lost verse":

Come, desire of nations, come,
Fix in us thy humble home;
Rise, the woman's conquering seed,
Bruise in us the serpent's head. Now display thy saving power,
Ruin'd nature now restore;
Now in mystic union join
Thine to ours, and ours to thine. Adam's likeness, Lord, efface,
Stamp thy image in its place.
Second Adam from above,
Reinstate us in thy love. Let us thee, though lost, regain,
Thee, the life, the inner man:
O, to all thyself impart,
Form'd in each believing heart.

on this page: Christian Today it goes on to say this:
There is some real theological insight in these neglected verses. First of all we notice the Advent antiphon "Come, desire of nations, come," followed by a reference to the Fall, with the serpent bruising the heel of humanity and Adam bruising its head (Genesis 3:15). Wesley cleverly alters the meaning, asking that the serpent in us (sin) should be bruised (defeated) by Christ, the second Adam, who reinstates us as beloved sons and daughters of God. In the restoration of sinful humanity to a state of grace through the incarnation of Christ, the joining of divine and human nature is also achieved. Consequently, that which was lost (salvation) is gained and a new life is granted to all believers.

LOL OK I am done looking! Still have no idea about what this means... well, if it even means anything.

"IF" it was to mean something, what do you think it may mean? lol Christmas is coming? hahah  OK it's just me laughing off the weird ;)
