Return to Land of the Flake
Today I am 24,342 days old. That's a numerical palindrome. It reads the same forwards and backwards. And I happen to think that's cool. Totally silly, but cool. And yes, I've pointed that out when it's happened before, and I hope I continue to do so. It keeps me focusing on the day at hand, rather than the past or the future. It also gets me noticing synchronicities, which is what this little web of mine is all about.
So let me point out some interesting facts (to me) about my 24,342nd diaversary. The individual digits add up to 15, and then reduce to 6 (1+5 = 6), which is my life path number. That's cool, too. It also happens to be the 6,763rd day since the millennium. The total for the digits in that obscure-and-who-cares-anyway number add up to 22, which is a master number in numerology and a favourite of mine. (Master numbers aren't reduced to single digits.)
Okay. So I don't have a life. I mean, why else would I spend time delving into such useless, esoteric minutiae? But that's where I am these days. I know it's completely ludicrous, but right now I don't mind having some fun at my expense, because it's a scary world out there - and increasingly more so every day. The Chinese curse has never been more relevant, because we are most certainly living in interesting times.
So please excuse me if I indulge in ridiculous pastimes. My obsession with seeing connections in numbers and dates is one of my favourite ways to escape reality.
Escape isn't necessarily a bad thing; it can be healing and nurturing. There's nothing wrong with being silly and escapist once in a while, as long as you don't get stuck there. It's a way to take some time out from a bad situation.
So my wish for you, dear readers, is that you find the best escape from whatever ails or assails you. So drift away for as long as you need. Just remember to come back.
Blessed be.
