“Glory?....Glory belongs to God alone.”
“Glossa
Time goes by, time comes along,
All is old and all is new;
What is right and what is wrong,
You must think and ask of you;
Have no hope and have no fear,
Waves that rise can never hold;
If they urge or if they cheer,
You remain aloof and cold.
To our sight a lot will glisten,
Many sounds will reach our ear;
Who could take the time to listen
And remember all we hear?
Keep aside from all that patter,
Seek yourself, far from the throng
When with loud and idle clatter
Time goes by, time comes along.
Nor forget the tongue of reason
Or its even scales depress
When the moment, changing season,
Wears the mask of happiness -
It is born of reason's slumber
And may last a wink as true:
For the one who knows its number
All is old and all is new.
Be as to a play, spectator,
As the world unfolds before:
You will know the heart of matter
Should they act two parts or four;
When they cry or tear asunder
From your seat enjoy along
And you'll learn from art to wonder
What is right and what is wrong.
Past and future, ever blending,
Are the twin sides of same page:
New start will begin with ending
When you know to learn from age;
All that was or be tomorrow
We have in the present, too;
But what's vain and futile sorrow
You must think and ask of you;
For the living cannot sever
From the means we've always had:
Now, as years ago, and ever,
Men are happy or are sad:
Other masks, same play repeated;
Diff'rent tongues, same words to hear;
Of your dreams so often cheated,
Have no hope and have no fear.
Hope not when the villains cluster
By success and glory drawn:
Fools with perfect lack of luster
Will outshine Hyperion!
Fear it not, they'll push each other
To reach higher in the fold,
Do not side with them as brother,
Waves that rise can never hold.
Sounds of siren songs call steady
Toward golden nets, astray;
Life attracts you into eddies
To change actors in the play;
Steal aside from crowd and bustle,
Do not look, seem not to hear
From your path, away from hustle,
If they urge or if they cheer;
If they reach for you, go faster,
Hold your tongue when slanders yell;
Your advice they cannot master,
Don't you know their measure well?
Let them talk and let them chatter,
Let all go past, young and old;
Unattached to man or matter,
You remain aloof and cold.
You remain aloof and cold
If they urge or if they cheer;
Waves that rise can never hold,
Have no hope and have no fear;
You must think and ask of you
What is right and what is wrong;
All is old and all is new,
Time goes by, time comes along.”

dream pattern
A cluster of recurring images or themes in your dreams. It is in these recurring patterns, rather than individual images or dreams, that we will generally find meaning. Our dream patterns reflect conscious or unconscious patterns in our attitudes, feelings, or behaviors in our waking lives.”

“Glossary (page 143)
hypnopompic sleep paralysis
A rare event related to sleep paralysis. In these cases, the dreamer awakens, but the normal sleep paralysis has not yet worn off and the now awake person remains paralyzed. This can result in a sense of panic. Such cases are often accompanied by the clear sighting of a face or figure in the room with the dreamer. The person perceives the figure to be frightening or hostile. The paralysis and the frightening figure typically fade away on their own accord within a few seconds.”

“Glossary (page 144)
lucid dream
A dream in which the person is conscious of dreaming. Such awareness often brings with it a feeling of bliss and an ability to control the contents of the dream.
non-lucid dream
A normal dream. A dream in which the person is not aware of dreaming and the normal operations of waking consciousness are not present.”
Source: Dream Patterns: Revealing the Hidden Patterns of Our Waking Lives
“Glossary (page 145)
sleep paralysis
A natural and helpful condition during dreaming. Our body paralyses the muscles we use to move so that we don't physically carry out the actions from our dreams, which would result in injury. Some of our muscles, such as eye muscles, and those that regulate involuntary actions, such as our breathing, remain functional. See hypnopompic sleep paralysis for a special and frightening case.”

“Glossary (pages 145-146)
sublucid dream
Dreams in which a person's conscious mind is operating and trying to make sense of the dream, but does not realize that it is dreaming. This attempt to make sense of the dream can alter the content of the dream to meet the expectations of the dreamer. However, unlike with lucid dreams, the dreamer cannot deliberately control the contents of the dream. We are often sublucid when, in our dreams, our conscious mind intrudes to try to make sense of the inherent strangeness of the dream. We often experience confusion in such dreams.”

“Glowing taper in hand, she could almost imagine she was a star. Isolated. Insignificant amid the multitudes. Yet every bit as afire with heat and heart.
Strange, how contemplating the vastness made her feel a little less alone. From far enough away, on some other world, perhaps she would appear to be part of a constellation.”

“Ooh, my favorite! A fresh batch?” I can almost taste the sweet tingle of the fruity acai, tangling with a hint of coconut and that dollop of extra honey that Ana uses in the frosting. Mmm. She knows acai is one of my favorite flavors at her shop. What Ana doesn’t know is that acai is my go-to because she weaves in a hint of bravery when she purees the fruit. And, being a shy nobody, I need all the bravery I can get.”
