Worldly conspiracy

While typing the title of this post, I was on the verge of typing "Worldly Constipation" instead of "Worldly conspiracy". I don't know why so. It's probably because I mixed up the words "Conspiracy" with "Conspiration". The latter word doesn't exist, I suppose. With that out of the way, let me move on to today's agenda. 
I'm not sure if it is only with me, or is it that we all look for signs, symbols and indications that foretell a favorable situation for ourselves? For instance, "If I toss a dice, and 6 appears, my day will go awesome!", or "If I toss a coin, and 6 appears on top, I'll win at the casino.". Well, if you are in a casino, and your game requires a 6 to appear for you to win, the indication you are looking is sort-of justified. But I want to ask a question, as rhetorical as it may sound. My question is this..
If we see a sign of something that indicates to us a higher likelihood of getting what we want, is that sign/indication real? Or is it a figment of our imagination that gives us some form of fake reassurance to quell our inner restlessness? 
With every word I type into this post, I get a feeling that the post is becoming more and more abstract. Now, THAT is a sign/indication I'm getting. I have no clue of its authenticity. 
Why is it that we crave certainty? Tarot card and palm readers, fortune tellers, crystal ball shamans piss me off to no end. And as self contradictory as I might sound, I hate my own incessant quest to know whether what I feel and believe is true or not. Having said that, I am myself a big fan of the "Qaynaat" line from the movie "Om Shanti Om", the one that goes like this....

Itni shiddat se main tumhe paane ki koshish ki hai,(So passionately have I tried to get you)
ki har zaare ne mujhe tumse milane ki saazish ki hai.(That every universal molecule has conspired to bring you to me)

Kehte hain ki ...... Agar kisi cheez ko dil se chaaho to puri kayanat usey tumse milane ki koshish mein lag jaati hai.
(This line is just the re phrasal of the last two lines)
Sure as hell, the above lines sound cool! But I have a hunch that some dude cooked up these lines to make his desperately uncertain fellow beings feel a bit better about their plight. Maybe what he said is actually true. Maybe, it is just wordy bollocks. Or maybe, the chap who wrote it, was not sure whether what he's written is true or not, but wrote it nevertheless, just to make himself feel better. Personally, I wish that the part, where the molecules conspire to make your passionate wish come alive, is true. But, I really don't think that nano technology and CLONING have gotten that advanced to replicate humans, at least as of now. But then, the concept sounds fascinating. Or maybe, the technology has already developed, but is hidden from public knowledge, in some place like Area 51.  
But iff, just iff, there is even an ounce of truth in all this Urdu, the dude who wrote this must've been a genius! I just hope I find the thing I want to put all my "shiddat"(passion) into. I sure wish you do too. Else, if you're looking for it that badly, the world wouldn't exactly mind conspiring on your behalf to unite you with your passion, I guess.
