Everyone daydreams, of what do you dream? Thoughts are
causative, the thoughts we entertain will find out picturing in our
lives. Now, I know what you are thinking: cool, I will think about
having robust health, a boatload of money, healthy happy relationships
or stopping smoking and poof, problem solved. Unfortunately wistfully
dreaming about something without a basis for generating the change in
conditions is actually destructive, counter productive. Consider: many
who want to stop smoking don’t dream of being smoke free, but how hard
it will be to quit. If lacking financial abundance they don’t dream of
following their heart’s desire, money and abundance coming by virtue of
doing what they love, but on the reasons for not following their heart
(too old, too young, need schooling, what will people think, etc). If
experiencing poor health they do not see themselves as healthy, free of
the restrictions ill health places on them, instead focusing on the
limitations, dwelling on their “ailments” various symptoms. When
thinking of others, they daydream about past encounters, imagining all
the things they should have said, dwelling on how they will do better
the next time, even fantasizing to the point of rehearsing whole future
conversations in their minds eye.
So
if you wish to be miserable: Dwell on getting even with those who have
hurt you (real or imagined), for dreaming of revenge slams the door of
serenity, installing resentment as your best friend. Focus on every
medical condition you hear about and wonder if perhaps you have some of
the symptoms. Never waste an opportunity to join any discussion dealing
with conspiracy theories, for later when alone this will provide great
daydreaming fodder. Watch and read everything you can dealing with end
of world scenarios and daydream on how you will cope or die as a result.
Spend your time dreaming about what is missing in your life and how it
will never happen. Above all, dream darkly; as soon as the slightest ray
of sunshine tries to enter your thoughts snuff it out, for the world is
a hard, sharp place.
We choose the
course of our lives by the thoughts we entertain, reaping what we have
sown in our consciousness. We choose the dreams we dwell on, will we
stand in the light, free from the bondage of self or dream darkly,
wrapped in anger, limitation, fear, pain and resentment? Our God given
free will leaves the choice in our hands; choose wisely.
