Once Upon a Dream

<p>There was once a dream though it wasn’t mine but I had it all the same and I still have it. It is neither a religious vision of doom or blessings nor a political speech on promises or propaganda; for it is only a dream. You and I are here and hereafter in this dream you and I shall be called ‘we’ as it would be on planet earth and yes we are in a dream a dream-dream for that is all it is. We or our dreams at times one cannot tell which is vaguer. The picture of things is not yet clear but we have been made to understand that today is the first of January in the year F.G. 300. As we must have guessed the B.C. came and went so too did the Anno Domini and the new calendar system is already three hundred years old. Yes we are that far off our present consciousness. The F.G. is an abbreviation for Finem Gratiæ a lost language’s way of saying ‘the end of grace’. We feel this language isn’t lost because we are still here dreaming a dream.</p>
