Misery Daydreaming

Everyone daydreams, of what do you dream? One of the foundational truths is: 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 destructive and counterproductive. Consider: many who want to stop smoking don’t dream of being smoke free but instead focus on 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 why they have not followed their heart (too old, too young, need schooling, what will people think, etc.). If experiencing poor health, they do not focus on good health, free of the restrictions ill health has placed on them, instead they dwell on their “ailments” various symptoms while never missing an opportunity to talk about “their” condition, even with strangers. When thinking of others, they daydream typically about past negative encounters, imagining all the things they should have said and done differently, dwelling on how they will do better next time, even fantasizing to the point of rehearsing whole future conversations in their minds eye. Oh, and God forbid they stop and consider the part they played, their side of the street.

So if you wish to be miserable, here lies the recipe: Dwell on getting even with those who have hurt you (real or imagined), for dreaming of revenge slams the door of serenity, instilling resentment as your constant companion. Focus on every medical condition you hear about and wonder if perhaps you have some of the symptoms, Googling a must here. Never waste an opportunity to join any discussion dealing with conspiracy theories, especially online, for later when alone this will provide great negative daydreaming fodder. Watch and read everything you can dealing with end of world scenarios and daydream anxiously on how you will cope or die as a result. Spend time ruminating on 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 really is a hard, sharp place.

Conversely when freedom and happiness are uppermost in our mind, we adopt the path of Living on the Spiritual Basis. Having recognized the power of thought, both for good and ill, we chose freedom over fear and limitation, choosing the course of our lives by rejecting and resisting the Adversary Fear, reaping the harvest of peace of heart and mind. Though we have no control over the thoughts which float up from our subconscious, we choose the dreams we dwell on, so our choice is simple, will we stand in the light, free from the bondage of self or dream darkly, wrapped in anger, limitation, fear, pain and resentment? The Miraculous nature of our heritage leaves the choice in our hands, choose wisely.
