Is Life A Dream?

[robardin]

We have lingered in the chambers of the sea
By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown
Till human voices wake us, and we drown.

-T.S. Eliot.

[John_DiFool]

Mine is, at least.

Iä! Iä! Cthulhu Fhtagn! Ph’nglui mglw’nfah Cthulhu R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagn! Tekeli-li! Tekeli-li!

And here I thought you weren’t the traditional religious type.

[StJoan]

Nah, it is a nightmare.

[kayaker]

I think I thought I saw you try.

”I want to make sure you know you are not who you think you are…Who you are, in truth, who everyone is, is whole and perfect and beautiful. And if that can be recognized, then it is possible that self-torture can stop!”

~ Gangaji

[Count_Blucher]

Dreams are their own life. They are the reward after a long day of living. Life awake builds us, challenges us, makes us better, occasionally smarter, but also more wise. We bring all of these new things into our dreams, which inspires us.

Awake and inspired, we go about our day, doing and creating and learning. Its the perfect action of the two, building on one another, that rolls us forth through life.

Life could be a dream too, I suppose. (But I’m not rowing that damned boat. )

Either you’ve been reading Pedro Calderon de la Barca or you’re Scandinavian.

Or 15.

Bet I’m older than you. Aloha

Waking from the dream requires only that you still thought. No plans, no concerns, hopes and fears. Learning to still thought is much like learning to herd cats. Alohaha.

I’m pretty sure you’ve stilled your thoughts plenty at this point. For at least two definitions of “still.”

[LVgeogeek]

If life is a dream, it’s a pretty bad one.

This is from one of my favorite poems, by the way.

I’m good for one. Lobotomy. Aloha

Looking back at what I posted last night it’s clear that drunk me didn’t understand the OP. Now, after sobering up, it still looks like nonsense. If jsutter was making a reference someone would have gotten it by now. That just leave the one option: the OP is a big ol’ pile of crazy.
