Sometimes I get little glimpses of my future and my dreams and the place where I imagine they converge, and I get a sense of peace, and I hope I can pull this off.

scope #4
Try this meditation: Imagine that you are both the wood and the fire that consumes the wood. When you focus your awareness on the part of you that is the wood, you hurt; it's painful to feel your sense of solidity disintegrating. But as you shift your attention to the part of you that is the fire, you exult in the wild joy of liberation and power.
It may be tempting to visualize yourself more as the fire than the wood. But if you'd like to understand life's blessings in their fullness, you've got to be both wood and fire simultaneously.

Remove the blindfold, please.
Somewhere in this world,
there is a treasure
that has no value
to anyone but you,
and a secret
that is meaningless
to everyone except you,
and a frontier
that possesses a revelation
only you know how to exploit.
Go in search of those things.

...please at least try to induce a lucid dream of yourself crawling along the inside of the vault in the Sistine Chapel, or hauling your luggage across the underside
of a cloud, or gliding as slowly as a sloth out to the end of a big limb on an oak tree. You need action that's simultaneously high up and reversed. You've got to be grounded yet rebellious as you soar. Or you need to defy gravity as you take baby steps. Or something like that.

Stay with your breath.
Don't let your mind wander or twist or stumble forward; rein it in, hold it steady, stay with your breath.
Don't let your thoughts linger on any one topic, concern or issue; move forward, purposefully, stay with your breath.
Breath in deeply; exhale fully; acknowledge that third point, between the inhale and release, when the gears switch and your internal wind changes direction.

Breath is Life; the first action at birth, the last before we expire. Enjoy the luxury of breathing.
