Sculpting The Stories Of Your Life

Our intention, with this essay, is riffing.

Riffing on what?

Stories. Ideas. Technologies.

And so on and so forth.

On The Nature Of Fiction

Out of all the lectures that Neville Goddard ever gave, “There Is No Fiction” may be my favorite.

Right within this essay, there is an idea that inspires me very, very deeply.

The idea, in question, is as follows: imagination is reality and, therefore, fiction, which is one of imagination’s infinite forms, is reality.

Or, more specifically, a form of reality.

A form of reality that exists within infinite contexts.

Every work of fiction is true, real, and alive.

Or, at least, it is, in certain ways.

The concepts are vague. But, at the same time, striking.

On its own, fiction may not, in fact, be real, in the way that we think about reality.

And, yet, there is a reality to fiction that intersects with our experience of that which we refer to as “reality.”

A Story About Reality

Our universe is an infinitude of different things.

A neverending information field, subject to unending interpretation, selection, and creation.

The above is one of the “things” that our universe happens to be.

Every single moment, we select our experience from this information field.

All possibilities exist. All potentials exist. All paths exist.

And so on and so forth, endlessly and infinitely; ad infinitum.

Right within this infinitude, we select. And, then, we live.

Just as an example, we select the wealth we wish to inhabit, allowing ourselves to experience that wealth.

Or, a slightly more pertinent example within my own life, we select the inspiration we wish to inhabit and harness.

And, in doing so, we experience this inspiration, allowing us to give birth to the beauty within us.

The examples pertaining to the above are as infinite as the infinite infinities of our universe.

All of this is a story.

A story centered on the ways in which we can choose the stories we wish to live in. And, in doing so, we can, and will, live within those lovely, lovely stories.

Sculpt Delightful Stories

Sculpt delightful stories.

Stories of magic, wonder, possibility, enchantment, love.

“True love exists. And, I am experiencing it!”

And so on and so forth, endlessly and infinitely; ad infinitum.

Invest, as it were, in your stories.

Water them. Give them love and attention; appreciation and kindness; thoughts and prayers.

And so on and so forth, endlessly and infinitely; ad infinitum.

You can do this right now.

Just choose a story you love.

You may wish to be wealthy; to live a truly rich, abundant life filled with creativity, wealth, inspiration, possibility, adventure, play; and so on and so forth.

Select that story. And, then, water it; affirm its presence, appreciate the richness/abundance of life you are choosing to live, envision moments from within this story of your life.

Conclusion

None of this makes a great deal of sense.

Even so, though, thank you for reading.

Best wishes and have a lovely day!
