The stories we tell ourselves are the stories of the Soul,
the way the self understands itself. In dreams and stories
we reformulate our perception of the world, deepen it. And
in doing so the psyche becomes more dynamic and alive to
its own possibilities.

Nighttime is when we normally sleep and dream. Most people
imagine life shuts down at night, but a lover [of The Beloved]
knows better. When the rest of the world rests, the lover [of
The Beloved] finds those sweet illicit moments with The Beloved.
Even if it's just a glimpse, a smile through the window's lattice,
that is what the lover lives for. We light up, we catch fire
in the night.

God, The Mystery - or however one calls it for themselves.
