I am inclined to say that yes it is an illusion, but a real one. And that some day I will awake from this dream, and find that there is but one life,thankfully, we are all aboard. Regards, Michael.

I read a book once called Jonathon Livingston Seagull; in it the illusion, as you have expressed, was that we have the ability to change the make up of who we are based on the energy that makes us what we are, and that we are not limited by anything in life other than the limitations we put upon ourselves. My understanding of this was simply that we will only remain with the limits we have in our life because of our conformity to how other people want to see us, and therefore by changing our perceptions of ourselves we will be able to break through the barriers that stop us moving forward.

Cheers, David.
