oddly matching socks

thursday 6th december 2012.  a day to remember - even if it doesn't change the world.

richard turned up in matching socks.  weird!  the same day i'd chosen matching socks.  but weirder still: his socks were a quality pair of walking socks.  and so were mine!

i'm not superstitious.  but i do believe in omens.  i believe God communicates with us all the time, and i believe that valuable meaning is to be found in most things by those who seek it with curiosity and humility.

it was the day we came together with our trusted friends to ask the question, "should we try to make our wild new web idea a reality, or not?"

i like to think that our sock combination was some kind of living-room prophecy, whispering about a time of readiness for a new road, and a move from established daily habits to something new and unusual.

of course, whilst it was a rare occurrence, it's a perfectly valid perspective to suggest that we each chose those socks because it was a cold day, and we wanted something special for a special event.

either way, what I do know for sure is that togetherness is never insignificant!

and either way, that evening was the beginning of some exciting next thing!
