Gambling Nirvana
If you believe in luck, then the number thirty-five represents today's jackpot. The years accumulated to make this many represent almost half of a lifespan. If you have lived half your life and have not yet 'seen' the expression of your luckiest event, then the odds are twice as high that you will either experience great exceptionality soon, or you are close to dying.
Depending on the angle of your perspective on this gambling enterprise, this could be nirvana regardless of the outcome.
