For some reason my life seems to center around this particular date. I began to compile a list of significant events because they all seemed to have one thing in common. They all happened on November 1st.
It’s not all been good, but they are highlights; meaningful in one way or another. Here are a few of the most notable.
November 1, 2011
I began my first job after being a stay-at-home mom for a couple of decades. It was part-time at first as I still had children at home and was homeschooling. This job was with an amazing floral company. It was much more than just a flower shop. The gift line was spectacular along with its specialty food items. It finally closed in 2020 after being in business for 110 years. I was with the company for 7 years but left one year prior to its closure. The holidays there were magical. Especially Christmas.

I bought my first home. I walked in and knew it had to be mine. Oh, how I loved it. Being a homeowner wasn’t without its challenges though. Especially my yard. I called this place home for 11 years. I sold it just last year. I’m grateful for all it provided for me and my children.

This day was one of the absolute worst days of my life. My best friend for over 30 years passed away in her sleep. She was the best of the best. I could write volumes about this amazing woman but, tonight, it hurts. So I won’t. Nine years ago today…and I still break down in tears.

I brought Nyx home. She was a year and a half old and came with some big issues. Almost to the point of me taking her back. But in reality, she needed me as much as I needed her. Five years later, we have this amazing connection. I couldn’t ask for a better dog. We are both imperfect but perfect together.

I entered a fall photo contest sponsored by an insurance company. Two of my photos made it to the final five and people were able to vote on them on FB. I’m not on FB so I didn’t know how the voting was going, so it was a surprise when I received an email of my winning photo. The photo was taken in Maine, 2019.
Is it unusual that out of the 365 days in a year, to experience so many remarkable events on one day? Do you have a notable date in your life?

11/1 is your spiritual number it sounds like.

I agree! The number 111 carries a strong symbolic presence in the Bible. It is often associated with divine order, God’s power, and spiritual awakening. Many biblical scholars believe that repetitive numbers hold significance, conveying messages from God or serving as reminders of key spiritual principles. In the case of 111, it is linked to themes of unity, faith, and God’s sovereignty. The number one itself symbolizes primacy, new beginnings, and God’s singular authority. When tripled, as in 111, it emphasizes these meanings even more strongly. And three 1’s points to the Trinity.
