Your brain works at recognising patterns and contrast. Think about that for a moment. What is a clock face if not made up of high-contrast patterns?
That's the whole idea - one shouldn't have to squint to see a clock, or turn the lights on, etc.
I
almost agree with you. Our brain does work in patterns, so noticing an overabundant amount of repeating numbers is a sign of pattern
recognition.
What you're overlooking, though, is that a large number of people around the world are noticing one set of number in particular. 11:11. It does
mean something when it's recognized in ways that are abnormal. Waking up at exactly 11:11? Phones going off at 11:11 for no reason? Etc.
My personal experience is with 3:30, which, in binary terms, is the same as 11:11 (11 in binary is the same as 3 in decimal).
In the month of december, and december alone, I have been prone to wake up at exactly 3:30 am. That number has no meaning to me, and.. I would rather
not wake up so early (I'm in the Army and I have to get up at 5:30 as it is).
What really made me pay attention, though, was when my alarm-clock, which illuminates brightly when a button is pushed, would illuminate all by itself
at exactly 3:30 am... waking me up. At that point, it ceased being my internal clock waking me, or some weird sense of anxiety... something was
waking me.
Well, maybe the clock was faulty, and that's why I was waking up the other times too, right? Well, in that case, explain why my wife's cell phone
began going off at exactly 3:30 am as well, playing her "message waiting" ring tone. And there were no messages, or missed calls.
Again, only in the month of December.
Seems to me something was trying to send me a message.
My suggestion to anyone who noticed 11:11 overly often... pay attention. I believe firmly it is a wake-up call from God and it points toward the up
coming evens that will take place in 2012 (no, not the end of the world, but the end of an age. It will be cataclysmic).
Repent and turn back to God, begin studying His word. And no, I'm not saying go join some random Church or start panicking. I'm saying study His
word... all His scriptures. He will guide your path if you let Him in.
