stop and face each other while walking; she's fair-haired. I don;'t
know who she is or is supposed to be but I suppose I do, only her
hair is the 'wrong' colour, but it doesn't matter. I'm assertive, or
certain in my attitude towards her and my actions; this is love. I
think we have our ams aroud each other, I've forgotten. I want
you to come home with me, I say. Finally. As if after a long
ordeal, we finally get there. 'Home' is as much symbolic. Outside
of that I can't recall anything else of the dream. There were lots of
events in mind when I woke. As with ideas that come to mind, the
assumption is I'll remember them. Yet, I knew it wouldn't matter
too much as long as I didn't forgot the central event as described.
Doers she represent a particular person? She could, but as often as
is the case with me, she could be an amalgam of a few, at least
two, or mainly two. Yet, in truth, or truth be told, there have been
lots of dark-haired girls that have passed through my life I said
the hair was wrong in the dream.
There was the waitress in the Cafe in The Pancake Place on
the High Street in Edinburgh when I was 24. She was very
friendly, flirtatious. I was with my younger bro at the time too, so
who wouldn't be? Ha. A couple of young good-lookers about
town. I'm sure my brother had no conception of the attraction I felt
towards her and neither did she. Something that took me by
surprise when it happened. It was no mystery to me by then; she
reminded me of L, though that wasn't consciously in my mind at
the time. I think I had to mull it over later and it came to me. An
image of myself later in Cockburn Street comes to mind, so that's
probably when I did just that. I'd already had the revelatory dream,
the mystical experience the year before, when I was 23. I didn't
even share it with the women I lived with and never did. In effect I
was living a separate emotional life, a 'secret life'. But the
experience had been as much of a surprise to me.
A memory of the dark-haired waitress in the cafe. Do you
want me to whip it! she said, meaning the coffee. One of us
must've asked for whipped coffee. Our friendly-neighbourhood
sucked in, no fault of hers, laid out for the best past of each week
for weeks with a sore foot, going round in circles with my mind
when I could've kept it to myself, speculating to myself, keeping it
for a journal, or 'novel' material, as now.
And that's all I really wanted to say, whether now or in the
future, if the situation ever comes up again, or with someone else,
but remember, (or don't forget), that, regardless of what's
happened between us, whatever you think my thoughts or feelings
are on it, how you interpret it is up to you. If you're inclined
towards forgiveness and forgiving me for me and my big mouth
and a pretty egregious case of mistaken identity, though God
knows, in thinking back, I can see how it came about, keep in
mind you can approach me anytime in the future. And I just might
become quite ubiquitous in a literary capacity if I put my mind to
it. Wouldn't that be fun? And about time too. A turn-up for the
books, no pun intended.
Under the circumstances, what with the inversion and the
situation so 'cleverly' if predictably turned on its head by the
expert and relentless tricksters and stalkers, I'm the one set up and
framed to be seen as the stalker now, having voluntarily dug a hole
for myself as they well knew, and I've little doubt you could do
anything about. I may well be wrong in my last speculations over
the situation and that they go their hands on too. I could be saying
that for their sake as well as yours, in that you're beholden to them
in so many ways as we all are, though not in terms of one true
mind and love, and, this they know, not that they'd admit to it, but
it is what they're out to thwart and destroy at every turn if they
can. Also, you really have to wonder what motivates people to be
like that a rhetorical remark; as if I'd leave it there. And, just to
finish the original sentence, it's as much a case of making clear I'm
entirely sane of course; that I genuinely could be mistaken. You
might genuinely detest me for all I know, and that in the end, from
whatever point you choose, or they might on your behalf, there
was no basis for my feelings for you on any level, except they
were there, and real to me for that reason. Whatever the case, this
bloke ain't going away. In the sense that I'll always have
something to say, hopefully less opaque than the last few pages,
but that's the nature of the situation at the moment. From here on
in I'll write as I intend to, between five and ten pages most days.
As long as I read too, or preferably so. How do any of us make so
many silly mistakes? Vanity. It's all ego. Self-sabotage; wanting to
be seen as 'central', important. I could've stuck to Twitter, or even
Scribd. It's made it clear to me I'm not as rational as I've assumed I
am, emotionally. Not forgetting that neither are they; not by a long
shot. Now you might begin to see just how nefarious and
unscrupulous and desperate they are. Because, never forget;
they lost; love always prevails. It already has. The world is only a
screen, a projection. As ACIM says, we're only reviewing
mentally what has already gone by. Also, this world was over long
ago. Time only seems to be linear, a series of sequential events.
Everything happens at once and has already happened. We never
left heaven. Time was just a tiny tick within eternity, too short to
even make a world as the course says. The world is nothing more
than a dream of separation. It's also what the trolls live for, in their
unconscious fear of God and love. They've literally no insight into
themselves, and fight against it, and hate it wherever they see it.
Don't mistake it for anything else.
Another thought, more of a recent realisation, based on my
reading of the course; some things have just never quite sank in.:
Time is under our control. If the world of perception is only a
screen and what we put there is up to us, a projection of an inward
condition... then it can be replaced with vision, the only thing
that's real. Re; The Forgotten Song.
To be continued... and then some.
