Thirty-Two signifies that moment of arrival, needing no words or thoughts to validate its truth.

Let the inner child radiate; return to the joy of simplicity. At the core of everything rests a simplicity, when arrived to see. Perhaps life surrounding this moment in this reading is seeming to be overwhelming; let it come to rest. Perhaps life is seeming to be exhilarating; let this too come to rest- if you want. Simply be with the energy of life, however it is coming to be displayed, without injecting an immediate interpretation. Patterns.

Bask in the radiance of feeling fully whatever is the present- this is the substance of Life, regardless of how I am choosing to narrate the energy. In truth, it is known within that it too will change- it will not last.

I am grateful to feel. I am grateful for this opportunity I am giving myself to reflect; I am grateful for the joy that surrounds me as I arrive to this breath. I am grateful for the awareness to identify within what I am feeling. Is there an agitation even in reading this message, as if it is common knowledge and obvious? As if it is a waste of time to even put attention to this, that there are better things to do? Is there a clawing for a deeper substance, a desire of mixed hope and despair for something generated from the mind of some internet stranger to be just the right catalyst- transforming the undercurrent sense of instability/confusion into certain clarity and a concrete knowing? What is the connection, how is it connecting?

The process of growth is leading me to become my true essence, exploring contrast for the sake of refinement. I am always with me, even when seemingly “lost” among the energies I have come to associate with. As with the child, so too with me: in opening to curiosity, I have been led to arrive to this point. There comes a point of maturation (at many points in life) when Life itself must be looked at from a place of still discernment. I am not only the child, but I am also the caregiver; there is no other voice that is going to speak to this outside of myself, regardless of how much validation or authority I ascribe to something or someone.

The child may not be able to express clearly or articulate the thoughts precisely, but make no mistake: the wisdom and truth is spoken through the expression of the feeling. This is the genius of innocence, ever accessible within my personal intimacy.
