Fantasy

When we fall into the temptation of Fantasy, we imagine something as true or evident in the future. It is the collapse of thinking into unreality due to an absence of will. When we fantasize we do not evaluate, plan or act - we simply wish or desire.

We fantasize a future that absolves the present weaknesses and delusions. This has been a very difficult temptation for me to vanquish. I survived my abusive and unhappy childhood by fantasizing a perfect adulthood - perfect relationship, perfect career, perfect bank account, perfect body, perfect, perfect, perfect! Just by surviving, all would turnout perfectly.

When I reached adulthood I was so attached to fantasizing, I never knew how to make something real. Dealing with gravity, practicality, limitations, setting goals, building a creative community did not live in my consciousness. I could advise others, even organizations, on the steps to manifestation, but I could not follow my own advice. I could just dream - confident that the angels would lift me up before I hit bottom.
