Numbers in cultures and religions

In certain cultures our age number is assigned whenever we finish that year and in other cultures that age number emerges at the outset of the year - beginning on the first day of life. Which means you age number will differ depending on your culture!



In Hebrew, all letters use a numerical equivalent and each word's number could be the total of these individual numbers - therefore words have numerical meaning plus the literal meaning. And also the Hebrew bible [Torah or Old Testament] carries a book called Numbers.

Particular numbers have significance depending on your beliefs. Many of these are 3, 7, and 666.

Children love numbers

counting games
boardgames
birthday candles

Teens and Adults develop the love-hate relationship with numbers

When we so love numbers when we are young - what are the results that we start to dislike them?

Let's move on with parents who want to talk about the terrible 2's. Are the 2's so "terrible" or shall we be held pre-programmed to believe so? And can we pass this to our kids so they really start to learn that some numbers are not-so-good???

You have to have the amorphous "someone" who tells us that arithmetic is difficult. Right after who started this myth yet it's a myth. Worse - we tell children that arithmetic is more difficult for girls compared to boys! So those numbers begin to enter in the hate category.

We like to turning 13! We have been teenagers! And very soon we are able to drive!

We dream to get good grades in college as well as on the tests that "matter." When the numbers are certainly not what we should were hoping or expecting we sad or even depressed. Yet a smattering of us wonder if those test numbers mean anything in the real world outside school. We assign love/hate in their mind.

Plus many countries we love reaching the legal era of driving, drinking and voting or marrying. These are most often good numbers therefore we love them.

Unless, naturally, we hate them!

Look at the numbers in your life and rather than using a love/hate relationship together, imagine the things they mean to you personally and why...then figure out how to love these! They're your numbers and they're you!
