Am I going mad?
You’re mad, bonkers, completely off your head. But I tell you a secret. All the best people are.
Alice in Wonderland
My son and daughter-in-love dressed up for Halloween this year… again. It may be their favorite holiday. Witches and brew? Cackle-cackle… Vampires and pirates? Let me drink your blood, Cap’n!
Last year, they busted it all out. FourthSon was afraid they may have outdone themselves, leaving a hole in their hearts for this year … the only hole was the one Alice went down because this year THEY ROCKED IT OUT COMPLETELY!
Off with their heads!
Oh, Alice… in Wonderland. Struggling with the constraints and expectations placed upon her by society, she is learning the importance of embracing her true self. Wildly and unabashedly finding out who she is – oh the discovery! oh the remembrance! – and then BEING — The Great I AM, The Holy, the God-spark, The Light, The Source of Love.
If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is because everything would be what it isn’t. And contrary-wise, what is, it wouldn’t be. And what it wouldn’t be, it would. You see?
Self-discovery! Stay curious, Alice. Allow those worlds of reality and dream to mingle, to soften their edges and blend. This is your world, Alice.
“I don’t think”… then you shouldn’t talk, said the Hatter.
This is your world, Lisa. Stay curious, Awakening Soul. Heart wide open, fear not the missteps and misunderstandings. Fear more pretending, fear more trying to be what you’re not, fear more bending a knee to rules and religion, fear more sacrificing your soul.
A dream is not reality. But who’s to say which is which?
Yes, stay curious. Keep that childlike wonder… and, who knows, very soon now perhaps you may find yourself in Wonderland after all.
If today you hear your doorbell and see a bunch of costumed souls, go answer the door. Bring candy. Happy Hallowe’en… and here’s a hug.
Edge-y, joyful, pondering…
