Your dream is your dream
My dream is mine
When we held this truth
We fell in love

Your dream is my dream
My dream is yours
When we embraced this illusion
We became lovers

My dream is your dream
Your dream is mine
When we fell to this delusion
Our hearts broke

Your dream is my dream
My dream is mine
When we return to this truth
We will know the loving way
Reflections on the Toltec dream
Frosty mountain tops
Bright sun radiating heat
Spellbound winter day
Hu Xi

Hu Xi
Listen

Hu Xi
Is there a word to describe such a blessed sound?

Hu Xi
Is it like the rustling of a gentle breeze?

Hu Xi
Or the gushing of a sudden gale?

Hu Xi
Is it warm like the mountain wind?

Hu Xi
Listen

Hu Xi
It is nameless like the Wu Wei

Hu Xi
It is timeless like the whooshing of the sea

Hu Xi
It is the orchestra of life

Hu Xi
Imagine if we are grateful for every breath

Hu Xi
Letting each Hu fill us with love

Hu Xi
Letting each Xi release our pain

Hu Xi
The way of the grateful breath

Hu Xi
Listen

Hu Xi
Listen
Read this slowly, closing your eyes and listening to the beauty of your breath between each Hu Xi. Hu Xi is the Chinese word for breath. It is pronounced somewhat like who-see. Enjoy!
I walk this path called life
One day at a time
Through joy, grief & strife
I like to carve a plan
Yet when hail storms come
Such forging is wan
To learn is to grow
To be taught is a gift
To thrive is to flow
Love comes, I embrace
Nothing comes, dreadful place
Anger comes, just grace
Mother goes, deeply sad
Illness goes, such relief
Storm goes, not so bad
The path is not straight
The plan changes now
Awaken to life's fate

— The End —
