My dream begins in outer space where I have just visited a planet in a galaxy far away. I am flying very fast, covering
billions of light years in mere micro thought seconds, toward home—the New Earth. The speed I am traveling cannot
be understood the way we think now. To travel the universe seems very easy, since I notice it is laid out in concentric
circles and I am headed to the middle of all of the circles. When the New Earth comes into view, I see how it has been
made new, along with the surrounding planets.
As I approach the vast valley to the far left of the city, I slow down and my feet gently touch the ground. I head toward
my country home, walking up a path that I have made with what feels like smooth but soft rocks. On the left and right I
notice the many trees I planted a long time ago. Behind the trees on the right are fields of grass and flowers. The scent
of the trees, grass, and flowers cannot be unnoticed. On the left, I notice that I have used clear sheets of rocks to make
panels for a long, eight-foot high aquarium that is filled with many fish. As the leaves of the trees brush the top of the
aquarium water, the fish are eating the leaves.
As I look at my house, which is made into the side of a hill which is in front of a mountain, I realize that I have also
used large sheets of clear rock to make the walls and roof. Many of the sheets are not flat but contoured to the way I
have draped them over each other. This allows water that flows from a stream above to come over the top of the
house, along the side of the wall and down into the aquarium. The far end of the aquarium is built with an overflow
which forms into a stream that flows into the valley below.
