Remember what 143 used to mean?
Hi everyone.
First time here, First post.
If you are old enough to remember the "pager" days, back when cell phones were bulky and expensive, you might have recieved a page with someone's phone number, and a "143" at the end of the number, e.g. "8004235512 143." Before Alpha-numeric pagers came along, you had to figure out a way to get messages accross to people. Adding 143 became a way to tell the person that you are paging that you love them.
1 = How many letters in the world "I"
4 = How many letters in the world "Love"
3 = How many letters in the word "You"
So roughly about 2-3 years ago, I started seeing these numbers EVERYWHRE. I would eat out with friends, and a couple of times when I saw the reciept, the total was $143.43. WIERD!! Online game scores, time on my alarm clock, I mean you name it, I SAW IT, EVERYWHERE. Kinda creepy at first, but I naturally interpreted it as "I Love You." The frequency of occurance was and has been high and low.
After 2 years of 143, I started seeing 11:34, 11:43, 3:21, 12:34, 11:11, etc. Even though I started seeing a lot of these numbers, 143 stood out the most. So I figured after a while that if something or someone is going so far out of it's way to tell me it loves me, I could at least answer back, even though I wasn't sure who or what it was that I was answering to.
So one night I went out and gave my answer. Permanently.
I'm sure by looking at the picture you will be able to figure out what's going on.
Also recently a friend of mine pointed out that the sum of the numbers on my wrists are 11. So you get 11 on one hand, and 11 on the other, and in the picture, if you add them, you get 11:11. So I googled 1111, and this site came up, and I knew I had to share.
This tattoo looked beautiful when I first got it, but my depression was getting the best of me at the time, and I started to have it removed, OUCH!!! The person who was removing it for me and I made a deal that I would trade computer work for them, and they would remove my tattoo. A barter if you will. Well the person that owned the company that I was doing the computer networking for stiffed me on a big job and I told them to @!#$ OFF! Not really, I'm a nice person so I just avoided their future calls, but that's why it looks like it's missing pieces. Most people ask me what it means and I tell them it's the last four of my social cause I keep forgetting. They get a good kick out of it.

Re: Remember what 143 used to mean?
Dear Lost child,
Welcome to our forum. Thats the most extreme 11:11 I have seen, bet it hurt getting it, and taking it partially off?
Have a read of the first FAQ forum, and you will get lots of insight there. But I think that the angels were right there saying "I love you" all the time.
love,
Geoff

Re: Remember what 143 used to mean?
Hello Lostchild, nice to get to know you. I hope all's well with you. I hate suffering depression and wouldn't wish that on anyone!
I remember those pagers and suitcase sized mobile phones but never had one! I barely use mine now, except when my children go out and I insist they take it...hate the things. I was watching people all day on Saturday...every man woman and almost child, was blathering into theirs. It kind of creeped me out a little.
Aaaaaaaanyway, welcome to the site.
Love, Petra x

Re: Remember what 143 used to mean?
Thank you all for the warm welcome!
Yeah depression really sucks. I wonder if those of us who are seeing these numbers are going to be salvaged after twenty twelve. You know like we are "worthy" of seeing these numbers, thus being worthy of life after. Who knows. It's nice to have celestial beings communicate with us, but it also be nice to hold a warm body against mine.

Yes, the media does have somewhat of an iron grip on me, but I am an ISFP, so I go by the way things feel, and when I look at T.V., I feel bleh. Funny thing is I rarley watch T.V.

"Myers-Briggs Type Indicator" ?? "one of the sixteen personality types" ??

Hi Lost,
Welcome aboard! I actually like your tattoo being faded in some places - it makes it look like a vintage sign or something cool like that, hehe. (My sister just got an Aquarius tattoo on her wrist and she said it huuuurt! But she loves it.)
Funny 'cuz one day my fiance were talking about possibly getting small 11:11 tattoo's...maybe one day! (I'm a little bit scared, but I'll get around to it.lol)
Anyhoo, I think it's a wonderful reminder - that you can look down every day and know that you are deeply loved. Your 143's are a special gift!
Much love,
Kendra
