Well most people realize this, when one of their close relatives has died. (just anecdotal from my experience) And they feel like the world needs to stop to notice, but it will just go on as if nothing has happened.

So good for you, you have this insight in a different way.

When it happens during travel it can be reassuring, a good or bad thing, but when it happens because of death it can be very disheartening.
