\n<\/a><\/p>\n
Well, this is the year I turn 55 and Tin turns 5 — five has a vibrant meaning in the world of numbers and myth – it’s dynamic and constantly changing and it is represented in many areas of spirituality. The are five books of the Torah, there are five-pointed stars, and in numerology, five is molded from an equal mix of masculine and feminine while it bends more to the feminine. <\/p>\n
My motto for this year is “55, Arrive and Thrive” and so it is. <\/p>\n
Tin’s five-year birthday marks a deeper sense of himself and his relationship to the world. I see it in the way he has gained confidence in his rhythms in life – his five year transition comes with the addition of chores – making his own bed and dressing himself. Today he dressed himself, shirt on backwards, however, he is none to keen to begin making his own bed! <\/p>\n
And as he is getting older, I feel as if I am getting younger. Yesterday, a friend came and set up Tin’s surprise birthday trampoline in the backyard and I got on it and jumped and jumped for joy. Yes, these are not the salad days, but they are certainly the kale days – sturdier with more nutrients (wisdom) and totally all the rage. <\/p>\n
So let’s all hail the number five: Let’s hear it for turning five:
