A link to the past

A link to the past,
But this is not the legend of Zelda
It is the legend of life.
Lying alone in the void,
The emptyness, the dark.
Pondering on the flashes;
Brightly coloured lights behind
The eyes of the unpredicted.
Surrounded by silence
Hearing the voices
The voices of now, then
And the flow of time.
Asleep or awake?
Both and all together
Thoughts and visions of
Days and dreams left behind.
Can't keep up with the race
Can't wake up from the deep
Can only manage to open up
And let light cover the darkness.
Days gone create new themes
New journeys, new opportunities.
A link to the past,
A love to the future.


I believe that the best time to reminisce about the past is as you are lying alone, falling asleep. The past never leaves. It is possible, if you are thinking about a past event when you fall asleep to dream of it, If you can visualize it in your mind quite vividly, feel that you are living each moment of it. If you do it right you can dream away the pain. You can re-live a past experience and make it more positive. Achieving in your sud conscious mind what you were unable to achieve consciously. Although the reality wont change, and you'll be where you are at, you can learn a lot from re-living something like this. This can often break old habits, and leave you wide open to new experiences. If you learn from your dreams it is possible to use this lesson when you come up to something similar in your wake. So, there we have it. That is what this means. If you learn from your past, without dwelling on it, it paves the way for a bigger and brighter future.
