Like and Alike

Odd isn’t it, how we think in patterns, how our decisions rhyme, and how our subconscious colours our waking life? I notice more and more that the connectedness of many of my life’s events are revealed by anagrams: significant names and labels reappear in different sequences.

I notice too that preferences set in early life persist, they just change state slightly. I’ve seen that several pieces of art that I own feature meta-patterns that resemble countries that I like. No doubt my attraction to these pieces was due to pattern recognition at a subconscious level.

Similarly, this choice rhyming (that’s what I’m going to call it) must explain negative feelings too. Once you start noticing the rhymes, you might realise – as I do now – that deep matching processes of the mind are steering our lives.
