What… What is it… traveller; who is it?
What was there before words? What existed before time? My instincts tell me to stop before going to close to that brightly inflamed purple door. I can see its colours taunting me, letting me know that it’s there and threatening me every time my eyes burn from the flickering flames. I suppose I only feel this way because I keep thinking about it and I can’t stop even though it’s the only thing that I want to do.
This frame I’m in seems to be taking me down a vicious path that leads into a circle with curves morphing into the space between the between. Going on forever and ever leaving you with that feeling of dejavu, like you know you have been here before but it was all different.
As a matter of fact, it definitely is not different at all because you are still stuck in that oddly familiar but unrecognisable shape of a circle morphing and transforming into the space between that space. That is the space-The sacred space where they all meet as a singular fabric of existence, followed by a spectacular show, elegantly all intertwining into one perfect form.
Let us talk about Energy- if you were blind you would taste it, for if you had lost all of your thousands and trillions of senses, you would be the energy. For it not only surrounds you but becomes you, as you are it. Let the magic guide you as it consumes you.
For the greatest power of all is belief. It has been quoted millions of times before and has been the absolute basis of every Religious gathering, every social event, and every shared thought of the universal pool of energy.
You feel the energy therefor believing in its existence. The more you believe in something the more power it has over you Alas the more you understand it the more power you have over it. The space between the between as well as the magical stuff that dwells in the sacred space thrives on the power of belief. So much so that it is the essence of belief.
This is the Dimension wave that you may hitch a ride on between realities and the empty voids of nothing. It sounds absolutely petrifying, and I kid you not- It is deadly terrifying. Only because we were never taught to harness the powers of our emotions or the energies of the universe; leaving us all stranded dangerously close to the vicinity of the nothing essence that lives in the constant moment of “this has definitely happened before and will keep happening until forever collapses on itself.
Remember to wear your soul belts because you are about to travel through the impossible.
Yet another how to guide
keep a look out for my upcoming how to avoid the energy enemies and how to stick it to the A$$ HOL3$ guide.
Please note that this upcoming guide will not save your life in the apocalypse it will however give you the know how to avoid anyone who is planning on boring you with their end of the world premonitions and if it so happens that they were right, this guide will then help you seek out those fanatics as they will have absolutely everything that's needed with them for you to survive. I will also be throwing in an extra just incase they were right guide, on how to befriend an apocalypse fanatic and make him believe that you were one of his biggest fans all along.
Where my stories may take you.
They say that you create your own universe, Just wish they hadn't forgotten to mention that no matter how far into your own universe you are, sometimes universes clash and crash into one another and may even sometimes be swallowed up whole leaving nothing but a big black void. We cannot control the actions and reactions of other people unfortunately...... unless you know how to in which case should keep that information to yourself- doesn't really help if you are controlling the actions of someone and telling them about it, especially if its your life partner or one of your family members, they would just end up going along with it because its much easier than admitting to your face that your quite a bit of a special child- and not in a graduate from college early kind of way.
Back to my universe being invaded by energy enemies. If you are unfamiliar with the term “energy enemies” please refer to my terminology at the bottom of this piece. No matter how well you prepare yourself in the morning with all of those life coach and cheesy morning motivation videos you find on youtube, all the posters you have up on your wall about not letting the masses control you, no matter how many self motivation rhymes you spit to yourself in the morning- you will always find that one A$$ H0L3 who manages to throw you so far off your positivity path that you actually postpone all of your new year resolutions to the following year and just try and make to the end of your day without bad mouthing, judging or even killing someone, if it is yourself that you want to kill, you should probably see someone about that, it could be serious. And when you do; make sure that your chosen party is being paid for that kind of work or at least comes recommended from you suicide chat group. You might get your typical jock reaction of “you know its down the street and not across the road right”.At Least majority of those kind of mean people don't know how to hack online servers.
How do we live peacefully in our own universes that we have spent our entire lives creating, unless you have just learnt that phrase and have a lot of googling to do tonight, BTW don't fall to far down that rabbit hole, one concept at a time is more than enough to keep your mind busy and doubting if everything and anything around you is in fact or has ever been real.DONT PANIC Those feelings of absolute betrayal by just about everyone you know and anyone who has ever spoken to you will linger only for a couple of months and then slowly form part of your new and improved excepted reality. Just until you come across another weird conspiracy theorists post about the best back pack to keep stocked and ready for the end of days- then your worse off when you first started waking up from this mental and spiritual snooze you have been in.
I do sincerely apologise to any reader that comes across this piece that has actually successfully been living and thriving in the universe that was constructed just for you to perform at full productivity to increase their profits using you to your maximum capabilities. At least it comes with a super cozy pension package that you can enjoy straight from the comfort of your wheel chair. Im being dramatic but lets face it- you don't get much time after your working days in the system to really enjoy the remainder of your years. However you are gonna have loads of time now once you have realised that you can actually think for yourself, and that they have been lying to you all along.
TERMINOLOGY
energy enemies- can refer to any kind of force that makes you feel super uncomfortable or irritable and has you questioning your sanity. A tip for avoiding these kind of forces DON'T LEAVE YOUR HOUSE. and if you have to leave your house be sure to avoid any moving beings or creatures at least until one of them actually asks you a question that you have to answer, unless you fake a special child pose, and if you manage to get that right without being sent to one of those special “learning facilities” then well done to you.
A$$ HOL3- an energy enemy that manages to catch just as you have recited one of your self motivation phrases and ironically always ends up doing the exact opposite of what your morning motivation quote describes what life should feel like.
