General Discussion Thread 04.03.2025

Welcome back to another Thursday edition of your favorite newsletter! I (Ally) bet you didn’t expect to see my name pop up in your email today! Anyway, I’ve been seeing a lot of the number 333 in my daily activities. Not sure what that means, but maybe it’s a sign of good luck! That got me thinking: Do you have a lucky number? What is it, and why? I can’t wait to read your stories below!

Speaking of stories, our GrayViner @Gayle B. shared her sweet memories of spring with me, and it was very heartwarming to read. 💜 Feel free to share your own stories in this thread!

Or, if you have something else you'd like to share—whether it’s a cool fact you just learned, a funny story, or something that’s been bothering you—feel free to comment them down, too! This General Discussion Thread is created just for you, so feel free to engage with your fellow members!

Now, what's on YOUR mind today?

My favorite number is 13, believe it or not. Most people shy away from 13 because of superstition; but I have always had good luck with it especially on friday the 13th. Always a good day for me.😊

313 is me and my husband's lucky number. It keeps popping up in our lives. Our middle daughter was born at 3:13 and it just goes on and on repeatedly.

333 is classed as an Angel Number. It’s good luck. I have been seeing 11-11 a lot lately. Also an Angel Number. 11-11 is supposed to be change. I hope it’s for the good, I cold use some good right about now. Have a Blessed Day.

Thanks so much for sharing that @blues Man — how wonderful that your lucky number has such a strong connection to a childhood memory and a sports hero like Willie Mays! ⚾ Sixty years is a long time to stay loyal to one number—do you still find it popping up in your life, like on special dates, house numbers, or even raffle tickets?
 
My favorite number is 11 because I have 11 children.
Wow—thank you for sharing @sherbabe11* ! What a beautiful reason to choose 11 as your favorite number. Having 11 children must mean your home was always full of life and energy! Do you find the number 11 showing up in meaningful ways beyond your family—like anniversaries, dates, or even little signs in everyday life?
 
My favorite number is 3! I don't know why but it's always been my favorite. It's good luck.
Thanks for sharing @Wheream1? ! There’s something special about the number 3—it often feels naturally lucky or balanced, doesn’t it? Some say it has a bit of magic to it. Have you ever noticed any moments when the number 3 brought you good luck or popped up at just the right time?
 
#8 is special because it’s the birth month of my daughter and it’s symmetrical.
Thanks so much for sharing @Marilea ! What a lovely combination of personal meaning and visual appeal—August must hold some beautiful memories for you. Do you find yourself drawn to other symmetrical things too, or is it mostly the number 8 that stands out in your life?
 
My favorite number is 13, believe it or not. Most people shy away from 13 because of superstition; but I have always had good luck with it especially on friday the 13th. Always a good day for me.😊
Thank you for sharing @trbtm2 ! I love that you’ve embraced a number most people avoid—and turned it into something lucky for yourself. 😊 Do you remember a specific Friday the 13th that stands out as especially lucky or meaningful?
 
My lucky number is 3. My daughters birthday numbers are all divisible by 3, just like mine!
Thanks for sharing @Pattycake — how fascinating! It’s like the number 3 is woven right into your family story. Do you ever find yourself noticing patterns or making decisions based on that number, like choosing seats, times, or even addresses?
 
My good luck number is 314. MY hospital room a very long time ago
Thanks for sharing @Nana four — how interesting that a hospital room number stayed with you and became your good luck charm. It must have been a meaningful time in your life. Was it a positive experience or outcome that made 314 stand out to you all these years later?
 
313 is me and my husband's lucky number. It keeps popping up in our lives. Our middle daughter was born at 3:13 and it just goes on and on repeatedly.
Thanks so much for sharing @Gibb — how special to have a number like 313 that keeps showing up for you and your husband! It’s amazing how certain numbers can almost feel like little winks from the universe. Has 313 shown up recently in any unexpected or meaningful ways?
 
333 is classed as an Angel Number. It’s good luck. I have been seeing 11-11 a lot lately. Also an Angel Number. 11-11 is supposed to be change. I hope it’s for the good, I cold use some good right about now. Have a Blessed Day.
Thank you for sharing @KellyColeman — it sounds like you’re really in tune with the messages around you. Angel Numbers can be comforting and powerful, especially when you're hoping for a shift. 🌟 Has anything started to change since you’ve been seeing 11:11 more often? I’m wishing that whatever’s coming your way brings the good you’re hoping for.
