Don't Let Your Dreams be Dreams
Don’t Let Your Dreams be Dreams!
One of my favourite musicians is a singer songwriter called Jack Johnson (see www.jackjohnson.com).
Most of the time I know instantly whether or not I like a musician, but for some reason Jack Johnson was an acquired taste for me.
It wasn’t until I actually sat down and became present to his music that I begun to fully appreciate the sublime nature of his genius. I now absolutely love his melodies and find the social commentaries that flitter through his song writing to be both profound and seriously thought provoking.
Don’t let your dreams be dreams.
One of my favourite Jack’s Johnson songs is one called ‘Don’t let your dreams be dreams’.
On the surface level this all seems a little too obvious. I mean why would anyone want their dreams to remain dreams?
I began to explore this notion in my own life to see if I was personally resisting my dreams coming true.
Interestingly enough I discovered that there were some areas of my life where I was happy for my dreams to come true and other areas where I was uncomfortable with my dreams coming true.
What would actually happen if your dreams came true?
Through this personal examination and reflection I began to fully appreciate why most people walking the planet appear happy for their dreams to be just that, dreams.
Dreams give people to hope, a reason for living. I think most people unconsciously resist their dreams because they mistakenly believe that if they achieve their dreams this reason for living will somehow be taken away from them.
You can always find something to live for.
The actual reality of achieving a goal or dream is that it will create time and space in your life for something new and magical to enter it.
For example if you spend 6 months of your life pouring all your energy into writing a novel, when you actually finish writing that novel you will soon be left with an empty space for something new to emerge.
I am not saying that space is easy one to occupy. Often it can be more than a little daunting and uncomfortable. In fact an old musician girlfriend of mine would actually refer to experience as having the ‘after gig blues’.
The fulfilment of a dream will create a vacuum.
If you stay present to the moment, what you will notice is that the fulfilment of a dream will actually create a natural vacuum effect in your life. This vacuum will start to pull new experiences to you that are based upon your present level of vibration and alignment and will very naturally awaken new desires and dreams inside of you.
All you need to do is keep setting intentions of where you would like your life to flow to next and be fully prepared for your life to unfold in the most remarkable way.
