"Modern numerologists - who operate outside the realm of real science - believe that mystical significance or vibrations can be assigned to each numeral one through nine, and different combinations of the digits produce tangible results in life depending on their application.
As the final numeral, the number nine holds special rank. It is associated with forgiveness, compassion and success on the positive side as well as arrogance and self-righteousness on the negative, according to numerologists."
not sure where i stand on that. after all, I'm not a numerologist. just a musician half the time, and a heathen the other. in the Che biopic with benicio del toro, there's a scene where a Bolivian soldier is asking Che about religion in Cuba. he says he's heard that communist don't believe in god. Che says he doesn't. he believes in humanity. I'm not sure i can even say that.
i do believe that the collective thoughts and ideas of humanity shape our world. we define it and give it meaning. so if enough people believe a thing that thing will manifest in one way or another. if, for example, you wanted to make the sky purple, all you need to do is redefine blue as purple, really believe that, and bam!! the skies are purple. cause who the fuck decided blue was blue anyway? want to be successful? make success as simple as being able to pay rent and eat everyday and your already there. today my sauces will be a shrimp po boy and blue moon in a frosted mug for lunch. so i got that going for me. it when our definitions of success are too narrow, specific, or just unrealistic, that we run into trouble.
so in that vein, ill try to keep my expectations for today broad. maybe the magic will be a free beer. maybe a phone call or e mail. I've already received text messages from not one, but two exes, with the term being used as loosely as possible. not sure what that means. it was nice to hear from one. I'm indifferent towards the other; seems i am with many things these days.
