Very insightful, thank-you
I still get 11:11 every day; mostly in the morning. The remainder of the day it is still 1:11 and on any given day it is around 4-5 occurrences. Not just on clocks, but on scores, timers, games I play etc.I started to focus my positive energy and thoughts at these times. It almost always makes me smile when it happens.
Back in the day prior to seeing 11:11 (and other numbers such as 4:11, 9:11. etc) I was submerged in an alcoholic stupor 24/7 and extremely negative/selfish. I always noticed them when they started about 8 years ago, but never paid any attention and was often annoyed. Eventually the numbers started to increase in frequency to the point where I thought I was losing my mind and
major life changes occurred and my path in life was severely altered. I had just bought a house with my wife and daughter, had a job as a Creative Director, and the world in the palm of my hand (so I thought). Then things changed.
There was jail time, a divorce, the death of my father, several trips to the hospital then detox, and I was homeless after getting out of prison. These all happened within 6 months of each other and after years and years of seeing 11:11 so I assumed it was a curse. Little did I know it was completely the opposite and in time I started to believe that they were indeed signs of impending change, changes I needed to make, or things I needed to do or not do. this was after a lot of soul searching and researching, and most importantly listening to my own inner voice.
Fast forward to present day: I am now working on community programs in my city for underprivileged single mothers, I attend church (never attended church before) and I am active member for the church in regards to community activities, and I work as an outreach worker for the homeless and those with substance abuse problems. These are all things I never ever saw some one such as myself doing.
I still see the prompts, but for me I am not in fear of them being a curse.To me they are signals that I am doing the correct things and walking the path of good. Whenever I see the numbers I get a different feeling than when I see something like say 6:45 (random time I just put out there). I feel lighter in the spiritual sense and also a sense of calm. I take the time out of my day at that point to look at what I am doing and sometimes ask out loud if I should be doing something different
I'm happy to have found others experiencing this and I am thrilled to read everyone's insights and thoughts on the subject. Many thanks and I look forward to reading more.
