Life Is a Dream
Life is a dream
and it's in the dreaming
that Truth
Is.....
It's in the dreaming
that I know you
and you know me
as two aspects of the Universal Mind
meeting for the first time......
it's in the dreaming
that I am everything
and you are everything,
each of us a self-existing window onto joy
each of us mingling with that which we believe....
if we cease to believe
that there are boundaries
our fear dissolves
and we can fly....
for everything you see
is manifested by your mind.
Your brain can't tell the difference
between living and dreaming,
so how do you?
Your physicality is but a frequency
of light slowed down to matter:
and you can speed it up again to Light
should you desire....
Life is a dream,
this fear, anger, sorrow
does not exist
when you sit still
and let your senses soar
through the infinite eternity
if each sweet Now....
when you let go of useless future fear
and feel the Love
which is in every moment.....
Life is a dream.
You need nothing,
you want nothing,
for all is provided in the sweet unfolding
of your physical reverie
if this is what you choose....
Life is a dream.
it's resistant fear and struggle
which turn dreams to nightmare.
Live in Heaven, not in Hell.
It's all in your mind,
you can always choose Joy.
For even in the darkest corner
the Light can shine
if you surrender.
For without darkness, there is no Light,
without struggle, not joy.
For all exists in this moment of Now,
if you sit calm and just feel, just feel....
Life is a dream.
What will be, will be.
You can only hold a moment in your hands.
Only change this here, this now.
So seize the moment,
and in the fullest experience
of its unfolding
you will find a richness, a Truth, a Joy.
