I have to confess that this isn't a discussion I thought I'd ever start. I've read a thread or two on Synchronicity but it wasn't something I put
much stock in. Sure, there would be the odd occasion when I would go to check the time on my phone and it would show the same number of minutes past
the hour as the hour itself (i.e. 0808, 1010 or 1414) but nothing worth mentioning, that all changed a couple of months ago. I can't put an exact
date on when this started happening but I'd say maybe around the middle of November, one day, out of the blue I'd checked the time at 0606, 0808,
1212, 1919 and 2323 (this 1111 are the ones I see most often, especially the latter). I've also noticed I seem to check the time a lot at times such
as 0110, 1221, 1331, 2112 etc. too since all this started to become a daily occurrence. The frequency with which this happens seems to vary and it
usually happens a minimum of 3 or 4 times a day but there are days (like yesterday) when it can happen a lot (yesterday I believe I saw 0220, 0550,
0808, 1010, 1221, 1313, 1441, 1616, 1818, 1919, 2222 and 2332, this was the inspiration for my post and, although I wouldn't say I'm finding this
freaky per se, the sheer number of occurrences yesterday did kind of bake my noodle a little.
Interestingly, up until the tail end of last year I hadn't told anyone I'd started to notice synchronicities and then one night, whilst out walking
my beloved canine companion, we bumped into a lady, maybe 15 years my senior, who was also walking her dog and we started chatting as our dogs played
together. We started talking about the town and the countless beautiful walks there are and the more unusual sights and sounds we've seen when out,
as we were, late at night in the lightless parts of town and surroundings. This in turn led her to speak of strange things that she'd witnessed at
some of the more esoteric parties she attended in her youth and syncronicity. We chatted about my observations for a bit and she turned off as she
lives a street before mine off the main drag. Unlike most of the dog walkers I've seen around town, I hadn't seen her since. Last night, as I was
walking Willow and had checked my phone at 2332, I decided to write the opening paragraph of this OP and, despite being at 9% my battery died and my
phone went off. As I put my phone in my pocket Willow ran off round the corner, right into the pup, Oscar and his owner.
If we hadn't bumped into them again last night, this thread mught have been another of those that is started as my phone dies and never gets
revisited again.
Like I've said, I wouldn't say I'm bothered by this, I'm just curious as to the why of it all...
