 Our senses are crashing! Our sense of self, our sense of direction, our sense of what's right and wrong... all crashing! So, what is the value of this? "What is a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?" "I don't know... I don't even remember how I got here." Someone shake me awake! Some One Is. As we awaken, all of who we thought we were begins to fade away with the dream. The intense feelings, the complete absorption about the storyline, the strange-yet-familiar characters all begin to fade.
Yet in that middle place, in the stretch of existence that lies between the dreamstate and the awakened state, there is confusion. Which reality is real? What's happening... oh, no!.. the dream is fading. Where is it going? Who am I? Where am I? I think I'm in bed. I feel my bed. Wait! What day is it? What DAY is it... think, think... I think it's Wednesday. Is is Wednesday? All day I drift in and out of the knowing of the day. I only know it is TODAY, and that's good enough. In my daily activities, I feel myself fading with the dream, and sometimes it feels like I'm crashing!

Oh I can so identify with this!! I often have to ask myself what day is this? Time seems to have no value, it is just a story, an illusion. And yes, as I awaken to my authentic self, the me that I thought I was fades away. What a grand adventure!! 6/8/2021 09:53:40 pm
LOL... I seriously have to "find" the day in my consciousness when I wake up each morning. And, I still have to "remember" as the day unfolds. Holding on to the day is one thing, but to try to remember the month, too? Sometimes I so love it JUST being TODAY, and drop fully into that. Adventure, indeed!!
