The Universe has Billions of Stars
The question is “How are you going to stand out?” To shine you have to be different. What everyone wants is some sort of distinction. Nobody wants to be part of the teeming mass that will blindly follow over the ledge like lemmings.
Yet, in Mark 8:37 we read:
“What does it profit a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul.”
Because we’re born with qualities, because everyone has inherent talents, the real question becomes “How to gain distinction and still actualize yourself?”
Your Dreams May Guide You
Dreams are symbolic representations that sometimes simply allow the mind to complete the “uncompleted” situations of the day. For instance, if you wanted to say something important to a friend or family member, and they just wouldn’t listen. Maybe in your dream you can do that.
Then again, dreams can take you deeper. In fact, Carlos Castaneda has written a book in which he gives distinct exercises on how to wake up in your dreams. This is called lucid dreaming. The book is The Art of Dreaming.
Be careful if you buy this book. Waking up in your dreams is a life altering event. . . Perhaps you need that. If you want, you can try the exercise that begins the process of lucid dreaming.
Exercise:
Look at your hands before going to sleep. Tell yourself you will see your hands in your dream. Continue doing this until you see your hands in your dream. Then try to see your feet, then picture seeing your whole body.
