Analysis of Life is a Dream....Why sleep?
Holly Flame Maxey 1976 (baltimore)
The sun shines regardless of my perception of it
The Rain falls no matter how I feel regarding my existence
The time progresses systematically
The only thing that changes in life is perspective
Change this one tiny issue
And life will become a waking dream
No more need for physical sleep
Past four, maybe five hours
Living in a state of relaxation
Is nirvana on earth
No worries for you......
Your book is already written
But it is a choose your ending story
Right mind, Right intention
Will always lead you to
Your happy ever after
