PRIME NUMBERS
Not too long ago but a bit after my birthday, a few fellas and I were standing around talking about the significance of life and perspectives to take to add value to who we are and what we do…especially for others. In the midst of this conversation, it was asked what our birthdays were. When I answered, one of the fellas put all other discussions on pause to point out that all of my birthday numbers were prime numbers. Expanding and focusing, it was meant that ALL the numbers of my birthdate are prime numbers; July 11, 1979 being 07.11.1979. More over in how it’s said and spoken; 07, 11, 19, 79.
While I did my best to shrug it off and to keep myself as humble as possible, I couldn’t help to think on the specialities of my life and experiences. I couldn’t help but to think on these things with some understanding of the mystery behind my continued existence and survival. The fact that I’ve endured much am still a functioning part of my communities and society. Out of that conversation, I’ve been left with thoughts of reflection, imagination and theories towards what may have been indiscernible contributing factors to my life.
Now I’m not saying that anyone has to consider these numbers as better over others or even that they have to hold some kind of significance for them…but because I’ve found this to be another odd occurrence to be related to and of me, there’s personal significance for me. As I look towards 2024 and plan to initiate a moderately in-depth look over who I am as a Man, Artist and Entrepreneur, I find that the numbers—prime numbers—07, 11, 19, 79 can serve as another good and great set of tools and representations of my life and existence. 2024—a year of reflections and self-acknowledgement—”07.11.19.79” will be included within my artistic projects symbolizing me in my various capacities.
