It is summer and the time when many of us break from our routines to enjoy entertainments that refresh our spirits. Summer vacations and activities are meant to lighten us up and let the joy of the season bring a lighthearted break from work.
One
of the most popular plays of all time is Shakespeare's Midsummer
Night's Dream, which is about the characters slipping in and out of
different versions of reality, traveling in alternate universes to the
delight and amusement of audiences.
Do you think that is worth a few moments of consideration?
For example, we often ask ourselves questions about our life's purpose and why we have taken on some of the patterns we have in our work and our love life. Many of us have changed our religious and spiritual practices. Some of us have also included new activities in our lives, especially creative activities that we had put off and now decided to finally use to express ourselves and give ourselves a creative outlet. New joy and energy come into us when we finally decide to quit thinking about something and do it. When we dance, make music, art, start writing or just go for more walks, we suddenly feel the flow of joy and healing.
What are these other dimensions? They could be parallel worlds where things seem to operate differently.
Consider the distance or closeness you have in various aspects of your life. Do you feel sometimes that you are an observer here? That your point of view is fluid? This often happens when we are in a major transition, and has everything to do with our progress in adjusting, changing or verifying the path that we are on.
We are spirits having a human experience rather than humans having a spiritual experience. Have you given any thought to the ramifications of this concept? How do you view your life?
If you would like to talk about this, give me a call.
Dreams do come true and the experience of fluidly moving between dimensions can be as magical for us as it is for Shakespeare's characters.
