Thinking is good, in this case you rationalize and know what it is you are actually doing, I think it is the illusion and self imposed reality that constricts us… for example, my views are different than yours, my views and way of thinking are “normal” . I feel and see things in a way uniquely my own and my universe is the only one that truly makes sense in my mind…

Now one problem I have is trying to see how others think. Who’s to say that my “normal” is “normal”? Who’s to say which reality is real if not all?

I shall think on this some more. Thank you Amanda for taking me into my mind… I must admit I have been on hiatus . See you soon!

I know much of what you express, but my mind lets not my soul feel. knowing is easier than feeling, even understanding…

indeed the jailor, and when i take up my keys to free but one I realize i forgot the one and shall spend eternity with my infinite keys trapped by a cell.

It is up to the few, like yourself to show the illusion. thank you fort he glimpse and vision, t’was beautiful

they are in fact equal to reality? Everything we see in this reality, taste, touch, and feel eventually disappears. Everything is fluid and constantly changing, disappearing back into the source from which it came, to be reborn and return again, receding and returning. We are not separate.

Returning to the deep well of unknowing… We are so much more than our thoughts, our opinions, what we believe and what we choose to hold on to. “I want to hold on to this thought because it makes me happy, or it makes me feel good.” How many times have I watched them fade away? Am I willing to admit I do not know? Opening to the vastness of empty space… To be free, truly free. Free from my own suffering. Liquid Love… Slow Love. Fire and Rain.

There is so much beauty within, do not turn away… Be the shine of divine light, both our beginning and our ending.. To be who you are, something different from your shadow of yesterday rising behind you and your shadow of tomorrow coming ahead

As all ways it seems Enreal, you touch the essence. Thank you for these blessings.
Stephen

The Peace of Wild Things
When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be, I go lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds. I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
~Wendell Berry

All I can say is thank you..thank you so much for awaking me back to a first love, the love of dreams and emotion. It seems I have traveled too far into rationality and left my heart behind. Now it seems time to weave the two and create my waking dream. But I am scared of getting lost or thinking I am deluding myself. I must learn to accept that we each create our own reality. To trust my body and intuition and SHUT OFF the thinking mind of doubt.
And thank you…for creating this safe place to play..

It is created in the mind and the trick is to transmute that dreamed bliss into action and open it upon our waking life and the world. To walk the edge…to have the courage to live our waking life fearlessly as in the dream. To let go of the layers that bind us from being and living our truth. I want to shout to society…stop making me hide my truth!..the love I so desperately want to show to all I meet..but I shrink in my fear of judgment and realize that it is not the world or anyone else creating my prison but it is I who am the jailor. Then the realization not to be so hard on myself, there is no failure or if there is, it only breeds success to those who wish to learn, because this IS the lesson to be learned. To embrace the dark and the light as equal players in the game. So be happy my dear to experience the shadow because there can only be shadow if there is light. Once we accept duality we can be whole. Please do not be discouraged love, instead be free to come out and play whether it be night or day.

We are far greater then we could even imagine ourselves to be, but we must travel through ego it seems to reach our true essence once again. For we only see ourselves as reflected views from others. Touched by the moment of a dream. The fear of flight. I’m lost in the mind of inaction. Seeing far without the courage to to step out of the box. Standing many times on ‘the edge’ and having to run away. Life is created by the mind but only through action does it become ‘real’. May we break through the armouring of false ego and fear, if only for a moment to bask in the ‘true light’. Please excuse my ramblings. May you live your dreams as well and more Being of light and love. Thank you for your reply.

I too was on my way, once upon a time, I too journeyed, tired to hold my purpose for a moment, then I lost it. May your dreams be fulfilled and may you see far ( i believe you already do)… and may our paths cross again. thank you for your words, they gave me a memory back.

I continue to breath into each one as they weave through desert dreams.. You wrote: “This arose from a dream… A dream of love lost… a dream of love found… a dream of no love at all… but alas it was just a dream… and like all dreams, you eventually wake…” I so love your writing, love your willingness to be open and yes vulnerable to this journey we find ourselves on.

Perhaps in our seeking love, we are actually seeking ourselves. Perhaps my being born in this human form was to awaken myself
Over there playing the part of you. I join with you and together we realize together as one being, truth eternal.

We are that love which we seek. What we perceive is nothing less than an illusion. Each of us sees something different. Not right or wrong, not black or white as much as the mind would like it to be that way. Existence is pure love totally in love with itself. We breathe..

So much beauty… we are waves and stillness,
ungraspable, all-inclusive
and closer than our own skin

So I just decided to Google ‘sees far’ to see what came up and your beautiful picture of the Silent Queen came up with the caption: “For I know she sees far and great visions”..I was intrigued so clicked on your link, and as I read your poem I began to cry because what the Queen says: “You simply wish to reach the destination with no journey” is exactly how I live my life and so desperately want to change. I want to learn to be present in each moment and know that each moment is what is important. I’m too busy rushing things through to get to the end. All I can say is thank you so much for posting such beautiful words. And I am continually amazed at what life brings when we open to the flow of acceptance, love, abundance and grace. I printed your words and will use them as a daily reminder to live in each moment and “journey the journey”
Love and bliss to you fellow traveler
