Consciousness is not a byproduct
of the body;
it is a journey the soul takes
back to its origin.
If dreaming is the internal processing
of the soul,
then dreaming is universal
to all life.
We do not begin at birth,
nor end at the grave;
if the essence precedes the form,
then we are travelers
on a return trip to heaven.
The ancient paradox is solved
by the metaphysical;
the chicken existed
before the egg,
for the spirit
must first imagine the shell.
We walk through a crowded,
invisible garden;
beyond the physical forms we see,
a vast ecosystem of the unseen
breathes alongside us.
