33!
What a flippin’ awesome number this is!
To be honest with you, I didn’t really know what it meant when it first started
popping up in my life. About 3 (irony!) years ago, it seemed as though someone
took every aspect of my life (money, marriage, motherhood, career, you name it)
and through them into a permanent spin cycle. I had been down the sorry road of
depression and anxiety before and knew my problems couldn’t be solved by
sleeping or eating them away, but how in the hell was I ever going to sort all
these problems out?

Out of nowhere, the number 33 started
popping up all over the place! I’d check the clock~there it was; I’d glance up
at the car in front of me on the highway~there it was. I look at the temperature
outside~there it was. 33! I’ve always had a keen sense of intuition (mostly with
others, rarely with myself) and knew there was something behind this number. So,
I did what most people do when they wanna find a quick answer to plaguing
question- I googled it. I found some pretty cool and
interesting articles on 33 in mathmatics, science,
religion, and numerology. Now that I had a little bit of backround to the
number I could analyze where it fit into my life~and of course~ IT
DID.

I soon fond that EVERYTIME I had an
inspiring, loving, universal thought~33 would be there. trust me I didn’t go
looking for it…You know, like, ” WOW! That was a cool thought. Now where’s my
number?!” It just seemed to happen and I liked the feeling that came with it.
The feeling that things will get better and it was ALL up to ME and how
controlled my OWN perceptions of people and situations.

I think, the most crazy-cool part of my
relationship to this number came as I was driving with in the car, listening to
the radio and this Smashing Pumpkin song comes on that I hadn’t heard in years.
I thought to myself, “I remember when this came out…man, what’s the name of
this one?…Err! Why did i never purchase Melencoly and the Infinite
Sadness?…I always meant to.” The song ends and the DJ announces the name of
the track…”Thirty-three”. Holy Shit! Holy Shit! Holy Shit! Really? I’ve
adored the Pumpkins since I was in high school, why did I not know that they had
a song titled “Thirty-three”??!! I couldn’t get home fast enough to youtube the
video and read the lyrics. It was all right there in the song: I, alone, create
my own happiness. It is up to ME to hold on to that happiness and no longer
blame OTHERS for my unhappiness. So, 33 is a reminder of the love, truth and
purpose I hold in my heart. The more conscious I am of this, the more it
manifests in my daily life,

“Thirty-Three”
Speak to me in a language I can
hear
hear
Humour me before I have to
go
go
Deep in thought I forgive
everyone
everyone
As the cluttered streets greet me once
again
again
I know I can’t be late, supper’s waiting on
the table
the table
Tomorrow’s just an excuse
away
away
So I pull my collar up and face the cold,
on my own
on my own
The earth laughs beneath my heavy
feet
feet
At the blasphemy in my old jangly
walk
walk
Steeple guide me to my heart and
home
home
The sun is out and up and down
again
again
I know I’ll make it, love can last
forever
forever
Graceful swans of never topple to the
earth
earth
And you can make it last, forever
you
you
You can make it last, forever
you
you
And for a moment I lose
myself
myself
Wrapped up in the pleasures of the
world
world
I’ve journeyed here and there and back
again
again
But in the same old haunts I still find my
friends
friends
Mysteries not ready to
reveal
reveal
Sympathies I’m ready to
return
return
I’ll make the effort, love can last
forever
forever
Graceful swans of never topple to the
earth
earth
Tomorrow’s just an excuse
And you can make it last, forever
you
you
You can make it last, forever
you
you
