When I was in kindergarten some 20 years ago, I became close to one of the ladies working there and she was my favorite teacher of them all.
When I was in the 8th grade (about 9 years later) my favorite teacher showed up in my dream for the first and only time since I went to kindergarten. Later that very same day when I was riding my bike home from school, who do you think I run into on the sidewalk, if not, my old kindergarten teacher.
To this day, I’ve carried this story with me as a perfect example of a “one in a million event”. Although I am a statistician by education, and can point to several high-probability factors in this story to increase the odds a bit, I still think it’s a really cool story.
[EDITOR: I’ll refrain from speculation as to what happened in the dream.]
