Father wears the same shirt every year on 17-year-old daughter's birthday, finds out man who made the shirt also wore it to his daughter's birth and they both lost their dads at 16, sparking wholesome connection: 'Who started cutting onions'

Sometimes coincidence is just too powerful to ignore. Call it the hands of fate or call it a random collision of odds in our absurd universe, either way, you have to acknowledge when it happens. And when you start looking for coincidences, you'll soon find that they are all around us. You and your friend happen to text each other at the exact same time, out of the blue. That song you were thinking about all day comes up on shuffle. You find out that a random stranger on the internet designed the shirt you wore to your daughter's birth and every day since, also wore that shirt to his daughter's birth, and you both have dads who passed away when you were 16. Life is crazy like that. 

The internet brought together two men in a pretty spectacular way after one of them asked an innocent question about the origin of his shirt. He had no idea it would unfold into something that would help heal the whole internet. That stuff only happens every once in a while.
