Realm of wonder

Dreams are the playground of the mind. When we sleep, all manner of creativity takes place. The possibilities are endless in this realm of wonder.

Our eyes are shut to the world, but our imaginations are free to roam. Sometimes, this leads to trouble. Yet, it ends at the moment we awake.

Though we dream a lot, very little is remembered. Upon waking, the memories quickly fade. What seemed so real becomes a vague recollection.

While the body is resting, our minds are quite active. We experience visions which cause both joy and fear. Their meaning is not always apparent.

Perception does not require understanding. One can be aware of much they cannot comprehend. Even in the light of day, many questions go unanswered.

If you remember a dream, it may be important. Your subconscious could be trying to communicate. Be patient until the mystery has been revealed.

Ignorance of significance

Details can be the difference between something good and a work of art.  A slight change could be all that is needed. The end result can be staggering.

Big things tend to take care of themselves. It is that which we overlook which comes back to haunt us. The ghost will not leave while the flaw remains.

We will be reminded of what has been missed. Even if no one else notices, it will stick out like a sore thumb. The only remedy is to correct our mistake.

It does not pay to do sloppy work. Most likely, the client will seek out someone more professional. And then, one's resources will begin to dwindle.

Always strive to make the next thing better than the last. Mend any tears and make the rough edges smooth. The quality will show how much you care.

Ignorance of significance is no excuse. Making changes is inconvenient, but necessarily so. One can either fix it now, or dwell upon it indefinitely.

The fear response

It is quite natural to be afraid. Fear is meant to protect us from dangerous situations. However if we let it rule us, then it becomes part of the problem.

There are two basic responses to danger: fight or flight. Often, it is best to just run away. Yet, there are times when it is imperative to stand your ground.

Being scared can be fun, so long as there is no actual peril. It gets the blood pumping and makes you feel alive. When things get real, the thrill wanes.

When one's fear takes over, it is time to face it. To succumb means it will haunt you indefinitely. Take a good hard look, and let the terror fade away.

If actual harm is imminent, escape is the preferred option. Fighting should be the last resort. Whether a fight is won or lost, the damage can be severe.

How one reacts to fear says a lot about them. Do not be fearful, nor should you be reckless. Instead, recognize the danger and focus on overcoming it.

Existing alone

There are distinct advantages to living alone. In the solitude, one is able to focus on what they are doing. The distractions you may have are few.

It is much easier for a single person to make decisions. A course of action can be chosen at a whim. Changing one's mind is easily done, as well.

Human beings require social interaction. So, you still need to spend time with family and friends. Being all by yourself can drive anyone crazy.

Some relationships work quite well. It is best when one individual complements the other. Without this symbiosis, people will tend to drift apart.

Existing alone only becomes a problem if you are lonely. People do the worst things to combat this state. It is better to be solitary than dependent.

Single people are required to provide for themselves. If they do not, they will be forced to do without. In order to survive, they must be responsible.

Real monsters

Real monsters wear human faces. They could even be someone that you think you know. Yet, appearances can be affected and thus are deceiving.

A smile can be disarming. Watch out, because that may very well be the goal. If you let down your guard, you will find out what their expression means.

People who care do not try to convince you. Trust is not asked for, nor should it be expected. Those who are genuine are not obsessed with appearances.

The ones who speak sweetest can do so with the most ill intent.  Be not beguiled by their words. Watch what they do, and the truth will be revealed.

Some of the most wicked individuals are the best actors. That is how they survive in our world. These are merely wolves who are masquerading as sheep.

If it sounds too good, expect to be taken for a ride. This will not be a place that you want to go. For upon reaching the destination, there will be a loss.
