Allowing Fantasy

 

“If one is lucky, a solitary fantasy can totally transform a million realities.”
― Maya Angelou

 

Hoping where hope is not possible
can change everything
knowing a better way can exist
even in the darkest hour
can make living tolerable
A dream of freedom
when one’s life is chains
can make one fly
to many lands
pushing joyfully against
the binds
knowing that it can happen
Knowing that love exists
when stuck among loathing
can keep the dream alive
yearning for the day
when one’s heart is answered
Knowledge in the face of ignorance
that something imagined can be real
can build the dreams
and break the chains
and open the heart
to new being.
— G A Rosenberg

Quote of the Day – November 28 2012

“A single dream is more powerful than a thousand realities.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien

Without the dream, how would we know it was possible to change our reality? Without the fantasy how would we be able to shape our dreams? Imagination becomes a strong currency indeed as we stretch from what is to what can be and make it so.

Apologies for the brevity of the posting tonight. I am once again on the road travelling, this time to Long Beach California.
Blessings, G

Quote of the Day – November 14 2011

When I examine myself and my methods of thought, I come to the conclusion that the gift of fantasy has meant more to me than any talent for abstract, positive thinking.”

–Albert Einstein

I love walking with my dog on bright nights, looking at the clouds and reading their shapes.
Me: “That One looks like a face”
Rufus: “That one looks like a chew toy”
Me: “That one looks like a mask”
Rufus: “That one looks like a water dish”
Me: “That One looks like the I-Ching Hexagram Ta Kuo ‘Preponderance of the Great'”
Rufus: “Don’t you mean I – ‘Corners of the Mouth'”
Me: “Oh yeah…huh (glaring at the dog)
Rufus: Lifts his leg and pees and walks away wagging his tail
