I had this dream last night. I was in my living room and I heard
a voice from behind me say: your fears are not real.
And I got it. My fears, my worries, my concerns, my judgments,
all these distractions are not real. They don’t exist without an
effort on the little, locally focused me to breathe life into them,
build a story around them, etc. They are the dream I am waking
up from.
I’m so excited about actually knowing that. And just as excited
about the voice. It spoke in a language I understood but it wasn’t
male or female. I don’t actually know what it was. Perhaps because
I’ve been focused on not acknowledging all these distractions, it
created an opening for the Field/Universe/Source to tell me what they
really are: not real. It’s amazing how I have been solidly behind
what is not real until I was ready to give it up. I’ve heard people say
“it’s all an illusion” for eons and it almost bugged me. What the hell
does that mean? If I’m living it, it’s no illusion. Now I understand.
And that leads me back to what is real. That Love is back of all things
and maybe that’s the voice that spoke to me, gender less, form less
Love.
Love you all, Bethie
you know what Bethie? I read your posts and I feel like I could have written them…or, more accurately, I WISH I had written them!
Sometimes I read them and feel that I am in a bizarro-parallel world with you, with my thinking things and you clandestinely writing them down for me. Then I forget about them and wander onto your site days later, and by gawd, there they are! How do you do that?
No seriously! you are freakin’ me out! (I say that with laughter and awe).
I look at all your categories and postings and I think, this could be MY blog page…..if I took the time and consideration that you do for yours :-)
That “illusion” thing has bugged me too on and off thru the years, sometimes I get it, but often I forget it and get mired in my dream miasma.
So, once again, I have checked in and seen something that you wrote that I have experienced and went WOWIEE, this Bethie is soooooooo cool! (thereby complimenting you and ME – clever, eh?)
much love to you,
ritama
and one other thing, do you know about the Notes From the Universe? Since we are in a bizarro-parallel Universe, I’d like to contribute on my end!
go here:
http://www.tut.com
and click on the giant NOTES FROM THE UNIVERSE graphic on the page. Then, take the Oath (better than “just send me the notes” as you can make the notes you get more personal with the Oath).
I recommend signing up for them every day.
I can guarantee you will love getting them in your parallel universe. I know this FOR SURE.
ciao bella,
ritama
Hi Ritama,
You are so funny! And further proof that we are living in a parallel Universe – you are a supercoolhappylovething. Sound familiar?!! Yes
I love Mike Dooley at TUT, thank you so much for posting his link.
Anyway, I do think you are a supercoolhappylovething and such a beautiful appreciator! Love, Bethie
P.S. Ritama, If we are living a bizarro parallel reality then I would like to download your vocabulary. Would you mind sharing it? :) Miasma was a new one for me so I looked it up. You are absolutely a gifted writer. Love again, Bethie
See????? Not only are you tuned into TUT, but dang it, I wanted to be the first one to write “supercoolhappylovething” to someone today, and you beat me to it!
And yes, you may have my vocabulary. I’ve been trying to let go of it for awhile now :-)
Please continue to astound my bizarro parallel world,
xo

Love, Bethie
