Last week on The Gas Spanner I had a special feature to mark
my fourteenth "sackiversary", fourteen years since I was thrown out
of the Hospital Portering Service. In the show I brought up the strange
experience of a song running over and over in my head as I walked up to the
hospital on my final day as an OxRad porter. The song on a continuous loop in
my mental playlist was Feed The Birds,
from the musical Mary Poppins. This
is a famous 1964 Disney film that skilfully and stylishly mixes live action
with animation. It has been adapted into books, stage shows and radio plays
etc. It tells the story of two London schoolchildren, Jane and Michael, who
have parents who are emotionally neglectful. One day a new nanny comes to look
after them and it turns out she is a benign supernatural being with magical
powers, played by Julie Andrews. One day Mary Poppins sings the children a
lullaby about an old lady who sells birdseed outside St
Paul
Literally a few hours later, as I was walking to work the
following morning. I saw something lying on the ground, just on the pavement in
front of me. I picked it up; it was a two pence piece, see the illustration
above; I show both faces of the coin. This felt connected and symbolic. I occasionally
find money abandoned like this. People regularly drop coins accidentally and
either fail to notice or can't be bothered to pick them up. These are almost
always coppers or five P's; anything more valuable and people will generally
make the effort to retrieve the lost coinage. A skeptic will, of course, say
what happened was just a coincidence; and, to be fair, I can't completely prove
them wrong, but if you look below at the details in my studies on synchronicity
you'll understand how, in my view, coincidence theory falls short. The number
of times I find coins lying on the ground is maybe once a year or less. There's
about a one-third chance that they are two P's. How likely is it that I should
find two pence lying on the ground just after presenting a radio show about the
"twopence a bag" song and its significance to my life? I'll hear mumblings
from the skeppers about "P-values" and "Bayesian inference",
but nothing really makes sense to me except this was some kind of good omen, a
portent, a subtle nudge from the powers of reality. I've had quite a few of
them related to my sacking. This is not spoon-feeding me; the power wants me to
be independent and exercise my free will, but it is saying: "Don't worry.
I am here. I am watching out for you." Dr Joe Dispenza put it very well in
the film What the Bleep Do We Know?
when he explained how he communicates with this power; call it praying to God
if you like: "https://youtu.be/_G5JilcIaLI?si=Fh7YpDUyHAFpwD_G&t=5311".
I hope my fellow HP's, and indeed anybody else who reads this, finds hope from
what happened to me. I knew I would have to share this with you.
