Earth, 2050
There is no cancer, no violence, no hatred.
No poverty, no jealousy, no struggling.
Only an abundance of goodness, truth, and beauty shared amongst all humans, in harmony with nature and the universe.
Every single human being is empowered to thrive and achieve his or her deepest potential, and savor the authentic feeling of belongin
Skyrise
Immersed in the virtual reality that is dreaming, the scenery fluctuates. Colors swirl, all objects dissolve. I look around at the rainbow whirlpool in which my dreambody floats. Suddenly, there is no more color. No more shape. No more form. Only boundless nothingness. Pure white light. No more dreambody. No more perception. Only the feel

With his third eye, Arthur saw in front of him a feast of fun things to do. That is -
An archipelago of operational aims, if executed optimally-efficiently, evidently and imminently affecting an arsenal of associative, also empowered and/or enabled artists and authors, entertainers and actors, appmakers and appeaters, altogether or at le

Of course there is pain - but suffering is unnecessary pain. Nobody has to worry about money or danger, deception or disrespect. Everyone at any given time is doing one of four things - 1) learning, 2) creating, 3) communing, 4) celebrating. Everyone is healthy, physically and psychologically. Everything

The Perception Engine
After experiencing hypnagogic imagery for some period of warped time, I found myself immersed in a spaceship that was traveling through spacetime via wormhole. Suddenly there came a voice.
"How are you enjoying the dream?"
I looked behind me and subsequently looked in the eyes of an extraterrestrial with small but

5am. 5 years old. 1995, in fact. I've been living on San Juan Island since 1992, and life's been good. My family's been fortunate enough to build a new house roughly a mile from where we've been living. The wondrous, magical feeling induced by such fortune is shattered when, at this time of the day - the day that my family and I a
