Why fantasies end in nightmares.

Fantasy - imagination unrestricted by Reality.

Whenever WE (human beings) are not in alignment with who we really are, LOVE, ego takes over  causing problems where there are none. This is because ego's sole purpose is to be and remain the center of attention and will do so at all costs. 

Considering ego lives in the Past it keeps offenses close and personal so to not forget. For ego, revenge serves as the appropriate payment and severing communication is part of the deal although it hasn't solved one problem to date. This is because ego is the problem.

Ego, being selfish and partial to no one, is loyal to no one. It makes up its own version of reality and believes it to be True. Because imagination will go as far as ego is willing take it in order to maintain its fantasy, it becomes a nightmare when faced with Reality (Truth). 

Contrary to what many believe Truth is not what hurts, the absence of Truth is what hurts. At this point, Denial is what brings Suffering yet it's through Suffering comes the choice to Surrender. Please do not confuse the choice to Surrender for weakness. It takes a clear mind to see and understand the difference between what is Real and what is made up. 

Choose to BE and STAY Present rather than continue to live in a fantasy...they never end well. Peace is experienced when lived in Truth and that is done by staying awake. Peace
