All of reality is a story, a journey, a dream
There is the story of “I”, the mind, your soul -there is some being here that has a story, a creation and a journey and an unfolding story…..
And this being created by The Creator is itself a creator being - the Son of the Father, endowed with all that he is. And so he creates his own world, his own universe, his own reality, his own body to live in. And he creates his own story as he thinks, chooses, perceives, believes, experiences…..
The Story is the basic essential nature of Reality The Protagonist Hero Main Character is YOU/ME. It is a Dream, a Lucid Dream. It feels real, but it is a dream, a video game, a projection of your own deep subconscious (within the Mind of God)
And all Stories of the Hero are a Journey. It is a Path and an adventure - always moving forward(even while sometimes going backward), always novel, always a traveling, always following one Way or another, always chasing some item, some goal, some ideal or another….
A Story has a certain structure and logic and grammar and…. All stories, no matter how much the experience may be different
The fact that there is a Being who is a Mind who is a Light of Consciousness - and this Being emanates itself, creates within itself (for there is nothing else) And it Creates a Son of itself - and everything that the Son is, is of the Father And that Son, the Child may create it’s own creations, and so on ad infinitum
Your life is your story And you every moment write the script, and read it as the actor
If you raise life/reality into it’s greatest expression it becomes poetry, it becomes a beautiful, comedic, wondrous, mysterious, passionate Story. It disappears into a dance, a living poetry, a song….
The greatest power you have is seizing the ability to consciously tell the story you love to tell. To powerfully create and write the story, and turn it into living poetry. In love and wisdom and imagination, and skill…..
