10/10/10

How many times will we ever see a date like this one? I heard the class my son graduated with in 2000 is celebrating its reunion today - how clever is that? Their tenth reunion on 10/10/10. I love it. Apparently its a very popular date for weddings too and many people are getting married today. I hope it brings them all good luck!

Dates are so interesting - birthdays, anniversaries, deaths, births - they all lend new meetings to otherwise random dates in our lives. Of course dates are only numbers, but how important does a number become when you have a baby on it? And how can anyone ever forget numbers like 9/11? Dates are significant and become touchstones for us. None of them are really random. They're all significant to someone.

Today is, I'm sure, a magical date for many people. It probably means something to people who are numerologists, psychics, mentalist, or whatever. And no doubt many people have planned special events for today. Because dates are important.
