March Forth! Ones! Ohs! And Sixes!


White Rabbits for March!

As well as being March 1st today, it’s also St David’s Day, St David being the patron Saint of Wales.

Eagle-eyed readers may have spotted in my post from yesterday a little image featuring the fact that I had made, up to that point, 1,601 posts in total. It’s slightly higher now, and I’m not really going to harp on about that any longer (for now at least!) apart from mentioning this little chronological coincidence that I’ve just discovered, which couldn’t really have occurred at a better time. Legend has it that St David died in the year 601.

See? 601 / 1601… even St David is pushing me on on my personal aim to reach 2,000 posts by December 31st 2016.

Erm… it gets spookier. March 1st is the 60th day of the year, and the 61st day in a leap year, which this year is.

That’s a lot of ones, ohs and sixes don’t you think? And it’s 2016. How could I forget that? It isn’t as though I’ve planned any of this.

Very random coincidences aside, I’m hoping that the remaining posts for this year are slightly more interesting than this one.

We shall see! In the words of Giuseppe Garibaldi:

We shall meet again before long to march to new triumphs.

On to March two. Such fun… such fun!

    That is indeed a bit spooky about the number coincidences!

    So intriguing, Tom. All those ones and sixes……must be an omen of some kind. 😕

      Quite possibly an omen… I see it as a pointer that I’m heading in the right direction! 😀

    I think you must find a numerologist to find out why there are so many 1’s – 6’s – 0’s in your life right now. Just a thought. If you think it’s spooky walk away fast. hehe
    I think it’s just numbers on a calendar. Why complicate life.? After all, you did get a post from them. Have a glorious Sunday. 😇

      I did indeed, Isadora!
      I’m not too bothered about the numbers, being honest, I just like the coincidence of it all! Coincidences and synchronicites fascinate me. I hope you’re having a pleasant Sunday as well! 🙂

        Do you really think it’s coincidence or Karma? Like a plan we’re following and don’t even know it. I wonder.
        I like certain numbers too and don’t have any idea why. 😳

          It could be karma… whenever I see events such as these, I always take it to mean that I’m in the right place at the right time (to see the coincidence!)
          And yes… ever since I was little I’ve liked the number 4 (and the letter D… sounds like I’m on Sesame Street, doesn’t it? 😀 ) I was born on the thirteenth, so in numerology I’m a four person anyway… I didn’t know that way back when though!

            I’m with you on listening to the little messages and going with them. I don’t mind a helping guided hand. Perhaps, it’s being open to what we need to hear and know. Life … embrace ti. It’s yours alone.
            Me too on the numbers …. I like 7 and the letter I. I used to love Sesame Street when my kids (oldest is 48) used to watch it. Funny ….
