I was wondering why you posted that on the 12th (here on the east cost) and then saw the timestamp. Nicely done!

My birthday is 11/11: does that make me one of the chosen ones, or something? There's more on the 11:11 phenomenon here & here...

Nice timing growl.....

Why is 11:11 more significant than 11:10 or 11:12 for example? Is it simply because humans love obvious patterns?

People see patterns where none exist, Space Cadet. ( like that's your rank)

Trust me on this.

Hmmm, I wasn't saying they don't. I just think people put too much significance and meaning on obvious patterns.

The 7th Gate Activation will take place 0n October 30 - 31, 2004

Hey, that was my birthday.

cool, yo. I got a nice candle and everything.

err, "I" got one... we all shared it.

The sleeping giant shakes off its slumber and begins to rise.....

How far the sleeping giant of our One Being goes depends on each of us. Will it just be a few of us or will it be many? Will the sleeping giant take just a few tentative steps or will it stride across the universe with confidence and compassion -- righting imbalances, healing all the broken hearts, dissolving separation and replacing it with Oneness? Where will you choose to be?

I know that there are millions of us all over the planet who are doing their utmost to help make this shift and have been doing so for years with dedication and courage. Your presence is deeply felt and appreciated. And even though most of us haven't met each other in the physical, we know that we are working together. But sometimes I wonder if this is enough?

MoW. shhh.

Damn, I'm spoiling this by adding a 12th comment. Oh well. I was annoyed with myself cos I missed 11:11:11 yesterday...twice. Nice to know I'm not the only one who cares. Roll on 11:11:11 11/11/11.

I read this too quickly and thought, "Jesus, what has 111 done now to warrant a whole FPP?"

"I just think people put too much significance and meaning on obvious patterns."

Language puts too much significance and meaning on patterns, just look at what you said. Looks like a pattern to me, though maybe not an obvious one.

Synchronicities abound. 11:11 is a visual cue to remind us of the portal we continue to cross through.

This is my first post, I have been waiting many long years for this day...why, because I am a nerd like you. And also, I've cried many times from laughter at some of the banter and have many other times wanted to chime in. Finally, I have arrived. I am someone. A someone with great thoughts, feelings and who works at a computer all day so what the hey.
