What is this thing; the dream of being human? We seem driven to be curious about the world/universe around us, spirit, novel new ideas and creations (Novelty in the McKenna sense of the word), to feel emotion . . to dream, to create. We due this as a matter of course for our nature; actually we do it so well no one even questions it. Our potential is unlimited; our place in the Universe as being conscious beings seemingly unique to our knowledge: the Universe aware of itself.

Billions of years of space time have had to pass in order for there to be this moment, right here right now. Whole stars have lived and died to create the world stuff of planet we inhabit. Life had to begin and go through countless steps to produce us. The force behind this continues to move forward, making no mistakes, rolling no dice. Here we are as human's, the latest technology the Universe has created. .

All creatures have played their role in the continuing journey that is the Evolution of the universe: greater and great organization, greater and great complexity. As the speed of evolution increases the world of thought, consciousness, and manifestation are the new grounds being laid by the Universe. Our ultimate role in this whole story is yet unknown, because the story is not done being told. What is this thing called "Human"? What is the dream of the Universe is placing Human's here and now; exactly where we belong, doing exactly what we do?

As we approach and are drawn towards a seemingly inevitable singular moment in time: call it Revelation,the next step in evolution of consciousness, 2012, the Mayan Calendar, prophetic visions of all cultures and times, Apocalypse (which means "the lifting of the veil" interestingly), the coming of God/dess, whatever . .it's out there, and we seem to be playing our role.

What does this dream of Human mean to you?
