Trust in dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity.

Dreams here are the longings that outrun what can be proved: the hopes a person keeps without evidence, the sense that a life is meant for more than it has yet held. The line asks you to trust them rather than dismiss them, because it holds that hidden inside such longing is a way through to what does not end. It treats wanting more than this world offers as a clue rather than an embarrassment.

Whatever lies beyond that gate, the first step is taking the longing seriously. Notice the hopes you have talked yourself out of simply because they could not be justified on paper. Keep one of them where you can see it this week, and ask what it is reaching for.
