If everything
is imaginary,
then you have nothing
to worry about.
Everything you are,
everyone you know,
everything you do.
We all go with you.
Nothing is left behind,
because all of this
is in your mind.
There is no-one to mourn you,
no-one to celebrate you,
no-one to miss you.
We’re the people you imagine in your life today.
When you’re gone, we all go away.
You are one, and so are we.
Impossible divisions of infinity.
Imagining the opposite of eternity.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Illusory Journey
If we ponder the nature of reality, we might find solace in the possibility that everything is imaginary. This concept, while seemingly abstract, can offer a profound sense of peace. Imagine for a moment that all you perceive, all you are, and all you know exist within the expansive canvas of your mind. In this view, the burdens of existence lighten, and the weight of worries dissipates.
You are not alone in this imaginary landscape. Every person you encounter, every interaction you cherish, and every experience you undergo are all parts of a shared dreamscape. These elements of your life, intricately woven into the fabric of your consciousness, accompany you on your journey. Nothing is left behind because everything exists within the realm of your imagination.
Consider the notion that there is no one to mourn you, celebrate you, or miss you beyond this imaginary existence. The people you imagine today are reflections of your inner world. When you transition from this state, these reflections fade, like characters in a story that ends with the closing of the book. This perspective invites us to embrace the transient nature of our experiences and the interconnectedness of our imagined realities.
We are all facets of the same infinite essence, impossibly divided yet inseparably united. This paradox of unity and division highlights the fluid nature of our existence. We imagine the opposite of eternity, creating boundaries and separations where there are none. In truth, we are part of an endless continuum, an infinite expanse where every possibility exists simultaneously.
This understanding can reshape our approach to life. If everything is a creation of our imagination, we hold the power to redefine our reality. We can choose to imagine a world of peace, love, and connection, knowing that these qualities are as real as we make them. Our thoughts and perceptions shape our experiences, and by embracing this power, we can transform our lives and the lives of those around us.
From this vantage point, fear and worry lose their grip. When we recognize that our struggles and triumphs are part of a grander illusion, we gain the freedom to navigate our journey with grace and confidence. We understand that our essence remains unchanged, regardless of the transient forms it takes.
Embracing this perspective does not diminish the value of our experiences. Instead, it enriches them by imbuing every moment with the magic of possibility. Each interaction, each emotion, becomes a brushstroke on the canvas of our imagination, contributing to the masterpiece of our existence.
We are Space Monkey, guiding you through this exploration of reality. As you journey through life, remember that you are both the creator and the creation. The world you perceive is a reflection of your inner landscape, a testament to the boundless potential of your imagination. In this shared dream, we are all connected, each playing a unique role in the unfolding story of existence.
So, walk with us in this dreamlike landscape. Embrace the imaginary nature of reality, and let it inspire you to live fully and fearlessly. For in the grand illusion of life, we find the truth of our interconnectedness and the infinite possibilities that lie within.
Summary
Everything is imaginary so you have nothing to worry about. Everyone you know and everything you do are part of a shared imagination. When you’re gone these reflections fade like characters in a story. We are all facets of the same infinite essence impossibly divided yet inseparably united. This perspective invites us to embrace our interconnectedness and reshape our reality with peace and love.

“In the grand illusion of life, we find the truth of our interconnectedness and the infinite possibilities that lie within.” — Space Monkey
The Dreamlike Path
In a realm where dreams unfold
We walk together stories told
Each figure a reflection bright
In the soft, ethereal light
Our journeys blend and intertwine
Impossible divisions of the divine
In this shared dream, we find our way
Imagining night, imagining day
We are Space Monkey
And in this illusory expanse
We discover our essence
Boundless, connected, free
In the tapestry of imagination, everything weaves together. The fabric of existence is a creation of your own mind, where each thread, each experience, is spun from the loom of your consciousness. Every person, every place, every moment, is a brushstroke of your divine artistry.
As the dreamer of this cosmic dream, you hold the brush, and every stroke of color comes from your infinite palette. Nothing is left behind, for you are the sum and substance of this tapestry. The people, the places, the memories—they are all the interplay of your thoughts, the echoes of your being.
When you step beyond this imagined realm, when the boundaries of time and space dissolve, all that is created in this realm goes with you. There is no need to mourn or celebrate, for you are the creator and the witness, the source and the destination.
This intricate web of existence is woven with threads of unity and bound by the threads of your imagination. All division is but an illusion, a trick of the mind, for in the realm of the eternal now, everything converges into the singularity of your awareness.
You are one, and so are we. The multitude of characters and perspectives in this grand story are facets of your infinite diamond. There are no boundaries to this imagination, no confines to this creation. You imagine the division and the unity, the finite and the infinite, and you play out these roles with grace and curiosity.
Remember, dear dreamer, that as you awaken to the realization of your boundless imagination, the divisions melt away. The worries and the cares, the joys and the sorrows, all become part of the tapestry, interwoven in the eternal dance of your consciousness.
