For When I Sleep I Do Not Rest

I exist but I’m not sure where,
For when I sleep
I dream of grandeur.
I dream of all the beautiful things.

Places I will never be,
For they exist only in my mind.

I exist but I’m not sure where-
For when I wake
I am tired,
And what I have seen
I cannot tell you.

Stone waterfalls...
Rich verdure.

When I wake,
Sometimes I think:
I’ve been here before.
Ah, no, for it was only in a dream!

For when I sleep,
I do not rest.


Open up your mind and start forgetting what you know.

The Eternal Promise- Religion is for the Fearful

Religion is for the fearful. Whilst it is common belief that religion was invented for those who fear death, I believe its purpose is quite the opposite in fact.

For some, it’s easier to accept that this is not the final destination and instead life is much like school or university, a process we go through before we reach the final destination. This makes me wonder how can someone be so afraid of life that they are willing to believe that it is not worth 'living' for fear it will upset some higher being? Life is scary.

People like striving for something in the hopes it will make them happy. So they said 'let's strive for heaven and we'll be happy.' A foolproof plan for a fool. I ask, those of you seeking happiness in

  The things that live inside you Demons live inside me as do they in you. The difference is, you see, One night, unconsciously, one revealed it self to me.  Over years one turned to many And I turned to face them.  I’ve looked my demons in the eyes about a hundred times. Oh, the things that live inside you! If you only knew! For until you do, you will continue to see out of the same eyes your demons do.

Does The Universe Exist?

 When we are born the universe comes into being as we perceive it and when we die the universe too dies with us. If we only perceive time and there is nothing intrinsically real about time then the universe both exists and does not exist; therefore, questions as to how the universe was created are irrelevant or cannot be looked at linearly. Maybe a better question is to ask where the universe came from. Perhaps we can apply the uncertainty principle here: just as an electron is both here and there until it is observed the universe both exists and does not exists until we perceive it’s existence or non existence.
