When I met you in the restaurant
You could tell I was no debutante
You asked me what’s my pleasure
A movie or a measure?
I’ll have a cup of tea and tell you of my dreaming
Dreaming is free
I don’t want to live on charity
Pleasure’s real or is it fantasy?
Reel to reel is living rarity
People stop and stare at me We just walk on by - we just keep on dreaming
Feet feet, walking a two mile
Meet meet, meet me at the turnstile
I never met him, I’ll never forget him

Dream dream, even for a little while
Dream dream, filling up an idle hour
Fade away, radiate

I sit by and watch the river flow
I sit by and watch the traffic go
Imagine something of your very own
Something you can have and hold

I’d build a road in gold just to have some dreaming
Dreaming is free
Dreaming
Dreaming is free
Dreaming
Dreaming is free

-(lyrics to the song ‘Dreaming’ by Blondie)

“The most basic human instinct is not toward survival, but toward the familiar”

-Virginia Satir

In the Greek origin of the word, ‘meta’ means beyond, and ‘physics’ pertains to the physical world. So metaphysics is the study of that which is beyond the physical world. This would include our thoughts and beliefs, our perspective of reality, and the way in which we understand the world and our existence. It also pertains to the relationship between mind and matter. While metaphysics has long been opposed by Newtonian science, which measures and studies only the physical and tangible world, Newtonians beliefs are becoming quickly outdated as we discover the inseperable effect that an observer has upon matter. If an observer’s beliefs affect physical reality, there is more operating in effect here than just the physical laws, and we leap into the realm of the metaphysical.  Thus, a person with a flawed belief system, or self-sabotaging perspective of reality, creates a flawed or self-sabotaging life. In order to improve our life we need to shift our belief system, and improve our personal metaphysics.
