Greater Dreams

God said:

Look not for rewards, but keep your eyes open for them. That is the same as saying Yes to life. You say Yes to life by letting go of it and allowing it to swing back to you of its own accord. You let life go free. It is possible that you have in the past restricted the flow of life.

Whenever you feel a need to control, you are constricting the flow of life. Holding on, pushing, insisting, demanding are all grasping at life, as if you really knew what road life should take, as if life couldn't make it on its own, as if life were an ill-fitting dress you have to tug at.

You are an instrument of life, not the wielder of it.

You are the wearer of life. You wear it in your heart, not on your head.

If life is soup, you are the stirrer of it.

If life is a book, you are the reader of it. You cannot get a page ahead, nor can you go back and alter one word. You can read only a page at a time. Each new page is blank until it is written on. This is the field of all possibilities. What you would plan is limited to what you think you know.

You have great power to alter your perception and therefore the flow of life in general and the flow of your life in particular.

An instrument of life such as you is not a passive recipient of life. But you are a receiver of it. And you are a participant. Despite what the world says, despite appearances, you are all heroes of your life. You are victors. All you have to do is be the song you were hummed to be. All you have to do is to let go of some strings you have entangled yourself in. Even little threads wrapped around your arms hamper movement. Imagine the cords you've wrapped around your life, the lines you've drawn, the fences you have built, and the doors you have closed. Imagine what you have not yet heard and what you have not yet sung.

Let life itself be the lozenge in your throat. Let life itself be the pen you write with. Let life itself discover itself. You are the traveler on the road. There is a bigger map than the one you presently hold in your hand.

Life is always on the cusp of something new. And so are you.

Where you have been does not really lead you to where you are. That is a myth. Start fresh. You are an unlimited Being of Light. Where you have been is but an illusive memory. You don't know where you have been. You may have thought you were lost when all the while you were on the right track. You may have thought you were at the mountain peak, but you were really mounting an ant hill. In truth, there is no up and there is no down. They are illusions, as are most of what you think. Life is not built on the figments of fact you present.

Life is built on dreams, yours and Mine. Dreams are the fishing lines you throw out to catch magnificence with. Your life is not to be framed on the wall nor in your imagination. Take off the frames you have put around life.

Greater dreams are coming to you, and greater realization of them.
