Today I had a strange dream and a revelation. It was a nightmare…
It was late at night and I had accidentally strayed into a strange community. A gang of people surrounded me, demanding money. I ran from them and into a shop seeking help, but instead of helping me the shop owners said it was my fault; that I should of said sorry and that it was also polite I pay them money. Fearful for my life I said, “sorry” but they said, “sorry” was not the right word, I must say the word “eleven”. Again I ran away, through the town, hoping to leave the madness behind… but it seemed never ending… and then I woke up.
For a moment I thought, “phew, just a dream” but then I quickly realised I had woken from a dream into a world that is sometimes just as crazy. The difference was in how I chose to reason and react to the world around me. We do indeed live in a mad world.
