Our truest life is when we are in dreams awake.
- Henry David Thoreau
This quote is taken from a longer paragraph http://www.quoteland.com/topic.asp?CATEGORY_ID=49 and includes another interesting thought. Feel free to take a look at it. This thought, though, of dreaming while awake is intriguing to me. Especially since I have had dreams this week in which I magically have more space. Now I've been thinking about the idea of expansiveness for a while and boo-hooing about not being an expansive thinker and yet, in my dreams, I have more than enough space. I'm not sure what it all means, but I think that, somehow, my dreams are telling me/reinforcing/encouraging me. If I am more expansive than I have previously thought, then what does that mean in terms of job, money, home , travel, spirituality, love? If I were in my dreams awake, my life would be how I described it in last dream. The person was saying my bedroom was lovely and very big, and I said, "Yes, it's very peaceful."
Question: What would your life be like if you were in your dreams awake?

Very inspiring!
How fitting for me to see Henry David Thoreau quoted! I have an affinity for his words as well and this just proves the bond you and I have as friends. Keep writing... and call me whenever you need inspiration. Friends are in your life to keep you inspired, laughing, and exploring -- Lilyane taught me that!
