Dream Awake

August 8

      Last night I dreamt the most vivid dream. I woke up at 22oam. I swear I heard the car door slam in the garage. What if I left the garage door open? With my heart pounding, I went to investigate. Sure enough, I left the big garage door open all night!  STUPID HEAD! I shut it and locked the inside door immediately. It’s now 540am, and I’ve been writing at my desk all this time, staring into the shadows. The sun is peaking over the mountain, and I’m finally tired. Was my dream an alert? A mental warning? I’d like to think so. Here’s one of my favorite quotes that help me learn to understand even my weirdest dreams:

This mental picturing power is God’s gift to help us bring about accomplishment. We all live in the embrace of a universal intelligence, and when we dream, we run up the antenna and catch the communication and inspiration from the divine upon the radar screens of our souls.

Anticipation

      Do I set myself up to be let down?

Expectation

      I think about something for days, weeks, months then when it’s finally revealing itself to me it’s not what I was thinking.

Limits

      I have standards that guide my life in a safe, orderly way. I’m dedicated.

Decisions

      There are so many choices to be made. Am I selfish if I choose myself first? I would become weary if I only helped others. Help where you can.

Accomplishments

      I understand that instant gratification can be ruinous. Patience is an exercise. I will be ready for my standing ovation when the time is right. Be proud of your accomplishments.

Be Yourself

      I’m an unshakable pillar, a cautious snail quietly bidding my time. I’m searching for pure light and truth and learning to create more…
