I had a vision in the late evening during a moment of lucid dreaming when I was between two worlds: the one that is awake and the one that is asleep.
I tried to simplify the words so I would remember them in my waking hours, but for some reason, the words fell flat because it was more of a felt sense. I'll do my best to capture it here.
Everything we've ever wanted to hold seems to slip right through our fingers, if not in this lifetime, certainly in death. This constant grasp and striving creates a sense of suffering and separation, obscuring a deeper truth about our interconnectedness, our truth.
But when we begin to peacefully let go of our need to control and hold, a new perspective emerges. We begin to see the intricate web of relationships that connects us all. We realize we're not separate individuals but rather parts of a larger whole.
In this realization, there's no need to hold onto anything because we're already part of everything. To further simplify: everything we really need to grasp is not within our hands but within our hearts.
Maybe if we all had this dream, we could transform our relationship with the world and each other. We would no longer feel the need to compete or compare ourselves. We would just recognize everyone is on their own unique journey, and we're all ultimately working towards the same goal: to find peace and happiness, to be one, to be whole.
In the words of John Lennon, 'You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us and the world will live as one.'
