Much Ado About 123123

Some may consider the last day of 2023 as meaningless trivia, but nobody can deny the fact that today's event piques Pinoy's tendency to make mountains out of a molehill ... that in their assessment today's numerical sequence is something odd and remarkable it is comparable to Halley's comet in stature and importance. 

To the uninformed ... Halley's Comet is set to reach aphelion, its furthest point from the sun, last Dec 9 2023  as it makes its 76-year trip around our solar system, according to science website EarthSky. Halley's Comet was last visible from Earth in 1986. According to NASA, it is expected to make its next appearance in 2061. 

God forbid ... If Halley's comet were to hit the Earth, it would have catastrophic consequences for the human race and all life on this planet. The impact of a comet of that size would likely cause widespread destruction, including massive tsunamis, wildfires, and a significant impact on the Earth's climate.

In that context, this numerical sequence like this one is not something to be sneezed about. Whether it will bring good or bad ... it reverberates with colossal and cosmic proportions to some Pinoy psyche.

Some of them even think it might be lucky to celebrate New Year's Eve with a big bang ... and WISH something good might come out of it.

Remember this unique numerical hocus-pocus won't happen again in the next 100 years ... so try if you must and celebrate saying goodbye to 2023 ... and hope for a blessed and prosperous 2024 is in store for all of us.
