Never Never Land

Dream:  To spend in dreaming (with away or out); to imagine as possible; fancy; suppose.


My goal today is to acquire and then maintain, against all costs and facing insurmountable odds, a tenuous grasp on reality.  For a German peasant I spend a lot of time in Never Never Land, lost in implausible flights of fancy.


Ed. Note:  Neverland  is the dwelling place of Peter Pan, Tinker Bell, and others. Although not all people in Neverland cease to age, it's best known resident famously refused to grow up, and it is often used as a metaphor for eternal childhood (and childishness), immortality, and escapism.


Little children and big alcoholics spend a lot of time in weird little fantasy worlds.  It's OK to do some dreaming - the problems start when the dreaming takes the place of reality.  These people are called INSANE people.  We mention them at the end of our 3rd Step and suggest that we can restore some of their sanity, while being careful to note that the restoration project can take a long time and involve a huge amount of hard work. 


All sound achievement is based on a vision of something.


I'm not making that up.
