I had just seen the movie, “The Gingerbread Man.” The girl in my dream looked like actress Embeth Davidtz (above)

You may have noticed that Western society is obsessed with sex. 

Sex and the chimera “love” are the main reason Western society is collapsing. 

My biggest regret in life is loving women: seeking validation from another person.

Romantic love is a delusion. Most people, men or women, are not that lovable. 

 Romantic love is an ersatz religion to teach us to seek ourselves in another person instead of in Self-realization.   

Our souls contain the blueprint for our personal and collective development.

Movies taught us that sex is a “mystical experience,” the best life offers. 

“Sexual intercourse is a sacrament.  Orgasm is union with the universe.”  

Cabalism- How Sex Became Our Religion

We come from Heaven “trailing clouds of glory.” Our souls seek reunion with God. The Moral Order. Perfection. 

The tendency to idealize other people is a mistaken quest for the God within.

This mistake (“transference”) often leads to disaster.

The spark of Divinity in our soul is the principle of our self-development. We were made in the image of God.

God is speaking to us all of the time.

Women represent the force of nature. They are always trying to seduce men and utilize them for their reproductive purpose.

They seek to control men but as soon as they succeed, they lose interest. Women want to be lovingly dominated by a man.

Heterosexuality is based on the exchange of female power for male power expressed as love. When women sacrifice power for love, they become more feminine. When men do it, women lose interest in them. 

“Dumping My Dream Girl”

I am proud of a dream I recently had.

Embeth Davidtz

I was young again and single. My beautiful girlfriend and I were shopping. I suggested we go back to my apartment. I was feeling loving and wanted to hang out and cuddle. Just be happy together. Sex wasn’t an issue.

Shortly after arriving, she says she has to leave.

Thwarted in love. Again.

In the dream, I press her for an explanation. She doesn’t have one.

She doesn’t want to be with me. I grant her wish.

I tell her I’m not interested in games. We’re finished.

The End.  Don’t come back.

I wake up pleased by my subconscious bravado.
