I have a freaky story to tell y’all… feel free to share some of your own :)
So here it goes… when my mother was giving birth to me there was an analog clock on the wall of the ward which was broken + stuck on 8 minutes past 6. When my mother gave birth to me the doctor came and told the time of my birth… 6:08pm. My dad asked ‘are you sure you didn’t read it off that broken clock?’ and it turned out he had read it off a working clock. Freaky, huh? I mean, its like the broken analog clock predicted when i was gonna be born… although as it was analog, it could’ve broken on 6:08am, as even a broken clock gets to be right twice a day…

this has been bugging me recently.. im very pessimistic (if you look back at my other posts from years ago) with philosophical thoughts and always jump to the worst conclusions. in this case, i think i must be too lucky or special to be ordinary with this happening, and i know that’s narcisstic, but seriously, this is what philosophical thoughts do to me, what are the chances..?

i’ve had a number of other weird coincidences in life as well, and thinking about them just scares me sometimes.. what can i do to stop being so pessimistic and coming up with questions like ‘why am i so special’ when i don’t wanna be special and i want to be in control of my own life..?

is this just a coincidence or more?
