Expressing Peace. Numbers. 63.
Numbers
Numbers amaze me. Not good in math, just awed by the beautiful mystery of numbers. As I entered the title above and the number 63, I delighted again to the wonder of multiples of 9. In multiple of 9, the individual digits add up to …. 9.
There are countless other interesting facts like that. Peace comes to us from infinite sources. Numbers can provide peace, whether we’re math whizzes or not.
I’ll bet you have a favorite number. I’ll bet your reason for that number being your favorite is unique to you. I’ll bet, too, that what you and your favorite number have something in common with me and mine. Peace.
Think about it. When you’re going to an address that is or contains your favorite number, don’t you enjoy a gladness and an easiness that add up to peace? When your favorite number is in the amount you owe the cashier or, even better, the amount of change you receive, don’t you notice a conscious pleasant feeling, and would you call it “peace”? How about your number at the deli stand or the number left on your rear-view mirror when your car is serviced? If it’s your favorite number, is there a moment of feel good?
My favorite number is 8. All because of its symmetry and its endlessness. I also like that it’s the infinity symbol standing up! (Remember “Ben Casey”?) I see the number 8 or hear someone say “eight” or realize something about 8, and I have a delightful awareness of peace.
Suggestion: recognize the peace you feel from something as simple, perhaps even as unimportant, as a number–even your favorite number.
Sweet Spirit,
I enjoy the number 8.
More than 7 and 12 and 5
and for my own reasons.
Reasons that only matter as they let me
know a number as “my favorite”.
Reasons that only matter as they let me
draw peace, however minor and however momentary,
from the double curve of a figure.
What matters is that you created me from Peace,
That heightens my consciousness of the blessing
of peace of any kind, in any form, from any thing.
Mine is an 8.
Thank you , Spirit.
And so it is. Amen. Amen.
Enjoy Peace. Express Peace.
