A few weeks ago, a friend suggested doing something for your inner child based on what they wanted. They mentioned how the energy was conducive to doing so at the time. I’ve aligned all aspects of myself in unity: the masculine, the feminine, the child, and even other/alien unmet selves. However, I felt this would be a fun activity to do nonetheless.
I felt like rereading a childhood favorite called Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown.
This really short book includes a line that cracks me up every time. I also noticed how profound this simple line was and how short the book itself was as well. It was a lot like going back to a city after not being there for many years and finding it a whole lot smaller and less imposing than you remember.
The book goes through the process of saying goodnight to everything in the immediate vicinity. It finally gets to a point of saying goodnight, nobody, which had me cracking up even now at the absurdity of it, and then later going off on a tangent as I thought about zero point and the vacuum of creation and how despite its emptiness is very alive in a sense. I enjoy this classic as much today as I did back then.
