BE AMONG THE LUCID
CREATE WITH INTENT
The Curse of Living, Creatively
Wife asks, “Did you sleep okay?” “No,” I say. “Why?” she says, “Did you wake up a lot?” “No, I died.” “Wow, I’ve never died in my sleep,” she says. “You were there. I kept watching after it happened,” I say. In this dream I created, I lived after I died - at least my...
Love > Hate
“Of course I’ll hurt you. Of course you’ll hurt me. Of course we will hurt each other. But this is the very condition of existence. To become spring, means accepting the risk of winter. To become presence, means accepting the risk of absence.” - Antoine de...

Mental Particles Vol. 1
12/8/2000 - Dream I could fly throughout the whole night. It was winter and I was near ice and trees. I was like Superman helping save people. There was a competition between me and someone evil. I am pretty sure I won, and there was a billiards game involved. There...
April Time Stamps
"Make it About them, and they'll make it About you." That’s what a past mentor once told me. Make it About who? I’m not sure what’s best so I’m going to just record my thoughts in this timestamped moment on 4/19/2019. How will we connect? Why would we connect? How...
😥 Morning of Mourning
Rude awakenings clip my wings. When the slumber ceases - The hunger for peace increases. Fear is fought while tears are caught. In a dream, I was safe and sound - But now a scene serene cannot be found. Alas, it seems I’m too familiar with how this sounds. So this...

Week in Review
I love to escape to create. What’s the alternative? Escape to consume? Minutes ago, as I stood inside this hotel room’s bathroom, I thought about how once my relief session ended, I'd get to meet you on the page in this very moment. And during this very minute, I am...
