It's not that you "just happened" to see 4:44 on the clock. Rather, since checking the time is something people do repeatedly throughout the day, encountering a moment when all the digits align is purely a matter of probability.Not fate or divination. In a 24-hour format, the chance of all digits matching is 1 in 180, and in a 12-hour format, 7 in 720. Assuming you look at the clock ten times a day, you would expect to see such a matching time in a 24-hour format roughly once every eighteen days.
