dream mist

A still from the 2019 film <n>Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark</n>.

I am no longer dissociable from my path. Faithed to become myself, I've exchanged time for currency, personality for identity, ideas for recognition. None of these things define me. I've discovered my own self in the echoes of dreams I've now forgotten. I've discovered my name on a stranger's journal entries. Yet, there is this unshakable feeling of convergence. I am not someone, I am the illusive void between two somewheres.

The goal is to combine your dream as a kid, your obsession as an adult, with something the world desperately needs. Everything is else is a distraction. The maze of figuring this out is the hard part, and the fun part.

One day at a time. One second at a time. One breath at a time. Tranquility is happiness. To covet is sadness. Accept each breath with open arms. It’s simple. The system will take care of the rest. Eat, breathe, drink, sleep, observe, move. You alone are not responsible for building it all. You alone are not responsible for the mechanics of your growth. You alone are not responsible for creating love between two people. These complexities are handled by the system, the collective, by synergy. All you have to concern yourself with are the essentials. Everything else will fall into place.

Why do we close our eyes when we pray, cry, kiss, or dream? Because the most beautiful things in life are not seen but felt by the heart

every thought is a dream
rushing by in a stream
giving life to the kingdom of doing

“Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up. This is the trick. This is what all these teachers and philosophers who really counted, who really touched the alchemical gold, this is what they understood. This is the shamanic dance in the waterfall. This is how magic is done. By hurling yourself into the abyss and discovering it’s a feather bed.” — Terence McKenna
