Blueprint of Dreams — poem

What if this life wasn’t as real as we thought?
What if our dreams weren’t as dreamy as they seemed?

What if this life were as fluid as a dream?
What if our dreams were as real as our waking world?

What if we could dream while awake,
and wake while dreaming?

What if we could shape our waking life,
and draw from our dreams, our blueprint?

If we can become lucid in our dreams,
we can become liquid in our waking state.

If we can wake within our dreams,
we can wake when we are awake.

Wake up there.
Wake up here.

This is the first poem in the poetry book I am currently writing — Blueprint of Dreams, which will be available in 2027.

Spirituality — Spoken or Felt

Some spiritual teachings help us through words and concepts. They give us language for what we believe, what we are experiencing, and where we are going. Other teachings work more quietly. Much is left unsaid. Instead of explaining, they work through presence, tone, beauty, silence, or vibration. We may not be able to say exactly what they have done, only that something within us has shifted.

Both have value, but felt spirituality asks us to loosen our need for explanation and definition. There is less to hold onto, repeat, or identify with. For some people, that feels uncomfortable; for others, it feels like home. Words may help us find the path, but sometimes the deepest part of the journey begins when the words fall away.
