Laughing Myself Awake



Laughing myself awake: 

and finally, I'm remembering to laugh again, natural, joyfully, and it's bringing me home. The beautiful cosmology of A Course in Miracles tells me that the world I see and experience now isn't really here and it's creation never actually happened. It was a tiny mad idea of separation, an impossibility so absurd that the child of God should have immediately laughed at such a thought. However, in that briefest instant of imagination we cast a crazy dream upon ourselves and now believe that it is real. 

so here we are, 

an idea taken quite seriously.

lately though, there's been a gentle laughter in this dream. 

I'm remembering that I'm already home.

still asleep, but stirring, 

with my thoughts drifting towards light, experiencing the early effects of dawn...and now unable to take this dream quite so seriously. It's my own laughter that's waking me to the innocence of dawn, and that which is still asleep begins to be seen as no more than the craziest part of this dream. I have no idea when this longest of imagined nights might be over. It doesn't really matter. I'm home right now, safe, dreaming, yes, but gently, joyfully...

laughing myself awake.
