Braille uses raised dots to allow blind people to read by touch. While working with Braille for a project, I began counting the dots. A spontaneous idea led me to explore whether there was a combination where the numerical value of the phrase „number of dots“ matched the exact number of dots used to represent the phrase in Braille. After some experimentation, I found this match: „25 dots“ is composed of precisely 25 dots in Braille.
It seems sometimes things just align perfectly.
