On my old WordPress site, which is really more of a private journal, I would document the interesting, amazing and unusual observations of life.  You see, I don’t do a lot of inward reflection, but I do sense, if not always pay attention, to patterns that surround myself, or others.

Then, to seemingly contradict or confuse myself, I also detect patterns that don’t have, well, a pattern.  Many people see patterns as something that occurs with regular frequency, and therefore becomes predictable.  But that misses all sorts of patterns that occur without that regularity, or are triggered by events that don’t have a cycle.  Or are in themselves the trigger that seemingly come from nowhere for no discernible reason.

That old journal followed some of those “coincidences” (which they very well can be), and found a few along the way.  So I am certain it will be here.

What does it all mean in the end?  Almost certainly nothing at all.  It’s just an interesting observation that if you see it, may open yourself up to other patterns.  But don’t delve too hard for meaning or purpose.  When there is none, it can drive you mad.  So just chalk it up, make a big deal about it for a few minutes on a blog, and let it pass over just like it was doing anyway.

Hence, you will occasionally see musings that in the end, really serve no value.  Isn’t that one of the joys of the Internet, though?
