“The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn; the bird waits in the egg; and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities.”
~James Allen, from As A Man Thinketh
"The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field…"
~Jesus, Matthew 13:24
I invite you to participate in a little exercise today. As you go through your day notice all of the things you encounter through your senses and imagine who was the first to ever dream it. Who was the first ever to envision a fork, a coffee mug, a piano, a concrete sidewalk? - You get the idea. I think you'll be surprised at how many fulfilled dreams surround us!
All the things we know as reality were once ideas, visions, dreams of someone. This includes not only the positive that grows from thoughts of joy, peace, abundance, and generosity, but the negative things in the world the grow from thoughts of anger, fear, scarcity or greed.
Having done this for a while, then begin to notice your own thoughts and dreams. What kind of seeds are you planting? What are you bringing into reality in your life and our world?
