Awake in a Dream
Awakening from a dream, when it is still so close to you, is like walking in a new world. The lovely sensations that were born of the night, follow your footsteps throughout the day, giving it a quality of magic. Colors seem brighter, the wind is a caress, the birds sing with new vigor. To be awake in a dream and dream when you’re awake. Such a marvelous state of being!
