Personal lore is a dubious drink, for the flavor changes each time you bring it to your lips. Given enough aging–from my own experience–the product is more fiction than fact–but what fact is not ripe for becoming fiction?–I find that if  I scrutinize any moment's ramble of my past, the story often breaks down into a mix of dreams I've had, past conversation, and maybe something I read or heard. A person might say that something such as daydream is not real, and certainly not biographical. I would have to disagree. How can one come to an understanding of the tangible without the ethereal?–Personal myth.     In dream, I found myself looking next door, up at the 2nd story sleeping porch of an older home on a tree-lined Southern street. There I saw a circle of nine basinets. In each basinet rested a white swan, head tucked down. After taking a moment to consider my location and situation, I returned my attention to the porch to find the swans had become nine brightly dressed old women wearing wide-brimmed Sunday sun hats (my muses, of course), standing side by side, smiling down on me and gaily talking among themselves.     Dream is fever to the conscious mind, inducing illusion. Illusion? Or, enlightenment? They are one, except by perspective. http://www.cgwalters.com/ http://sacredvow.dragonsbeard.com/ See more of my works (as well as that of many other visionary  artists and writers) on Zaadz at http://pods.zaadz.com/mfa_on_zaadz My lessons often come to me as spirit stories. The last one introduced itself to me as a metaphysical love story called Sacred Vow.   “Sacred Vow shares with us the magic of a loving commitment that spans time and the understanding that such a commitment needs to be held sacred.” http://www.lightworks.com/MonthlyAspectarian/2007/March/inprint.htm Sacred Vow is both a narrative and the means for the author to communicate a positive message about life and fully integrating the most into each moment. Highly recommended.–Midwest Book Review   Sacred Vow is first and foremost a metaphysical love story,  a tale of soul mates—twin  flames—a journey toward our one true love…in its infinite expressions…bringing together two individuals from disparate realities—but one spirit—to heal the rift in the Collective Consciousness.
