		<description>Hi Black Side of the Glass. Thank you for stopping by and sharing your thoughts with me. My precog dreams don&#039;t seem to have a purpose either. They&#039;re more like random bits of information. I&#039;ve thought about consulting a psychic about this (and other things) but haven&#039;t convinced myself yet that it would be worth the money.

Your thoughts about reality sound a lot like Steve Pavlina&#039;s theory of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/2006/05/subjective-reality-qa/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Subjective Reality&lt;/a&gt;. In a nutshell, he believes there is only one consciousness and we are all manifestations within that consciousness.

I once read an essay by a Jewish writer that talked about how life as we know it (the universe et al) was the transition between Nothing becoming Something. In the beginning, there was absolutely Nothing but now that Nothing is becoming Something and we are the product of that &quot;moment in time&quot; between the two.

I think that we are the product of Nothing wanting to experience what it is like &lt;strong&gt;to be&lt;/strong&gt; Something. I think the goal of existence is the experience of everything. Maybe in the end, the Nothing will decide to return to being Nothing or maybe it will decide to remain as Something. Maybe it is an endless cycle of Nothing becoming Something becoming Nothing becoming Something for all eternity. I suppose we&#039;ll never really know but it&#039;s fun to think about. :)</description>

		<description>Wow.  Very interesting post.  I have dreams that I remember for some reason,  though it does not seem significant at the time.  Then, months later,  I will have a deja vu,  and realize that I dreamed about the experience before it happened.  Sometimes, I will write these off by thinking thatit happens to be a cooincidence.  I won&#039;t waste time worrying about citing examples / instances to prove these precognitive dreams.  I know it&#039;s real,  though I cannot see the purpose.  May just be an after effect of our (human condition) limited grasp on the true nature of reality.  We are only equipped with so much hardware after all.

I&#039;m really writing becuase i liked what you said:

&quot;step back and remember that we are the Source allowing itself to experience what it is like to be a limited being&quot;

Incredible.  I have often thought this in trying to see meaning in life. In my own words, we are the conscious manifestation of a universal unconsciousness.  In other words, everything in the universe,  and the universe itself, is alive,  and we are equipped to deal with the experience as cognitive beings, in a conscious state.

Your thinking implies that there is a reason to all of this,  or a goal to achieve.  I don&#039;t know that for sure,  but i wanted to comment on an interesting post!</description>
