I have been having the numbers 1111 come up since the beginning of March, 2002, and it has not stopped; it happens daily. I was concerned at first at what I am not hearing. My friends and family have noticed it as well. I even had a police car pass me by, as I was on my cell phone telling my friend, what has been going on with 1111. The police car's license plate was all 1's.

My neighbor's baby was born at 11:11 weighed 11 pounds and was 22 in. long. It is truly bothering me now. I feel that I am not hearing a message, that it means something. I decided to make a wish now every time I see the numbers.

The other day, an old friend of mine that I have not seen in two years called out of the blue. I told him a certain date was 10/14, but for some reason he wrote down 11/11. I said, "That's odd, that you would write that number down. It has been haunting me." Well, he was shocked and told me that he has been experiencing the same thing with 1111 since March!! He has been feeling what I have. I told him that to keep sane I have been making a wish and decided that whatever it is, it is a good thing. We both feel that we are not understanding the message. Now I am also seeing 444's in the past two weeks along with my 1111's.

Can you shed some light on this? I figured if someone I know was also having this experience, then there must be other people out there, too.

I know how surprising it is to have all these unusual things happen to you. But it's a perfectly normal occurrence, and it happens to everyone. It's just that most people don't believe in it and therefore don't see it. Once you recognize that this is a real form of communication, you begin to notice it all the time.

You don't have to be worried about not getting the message. You are getting the message. The message is: Your angels and spirit guides are there, they surround you, they love you, they are ready to help and guide you, they want to be recognized and asked for help, and they are praying for your health and success. Every time you see a number, say hello, thank them, ask them whatever is on your mind, and bless them for their concern and protection. They aren't trying to tell you to do anything. They would never take away your independence of action. They are merely reminding you that you are not alone, that all of heaven is available to help you, and that life is joy.
