   Had a *few* /mild/ dreams last night, however, after a morning routine   
   including crossword puzzles, Sudoku, breakfast, making coffee, etc., they're   
   all *completely* evaporated.  There was this one "feeling" of trying to   
   express energy around a bubble of    
   darkness, as in chasing darkness out of the scene, but that's about it.   
      
   However, I did have an interesting meditation last night *before* falling   
   asleep, having to do with "Priceless Duality" (which may end up as the title   
   of a book someday) but it was basically related to the concept of self-worth:    
   in one respect, I'm of    
   immense value, because I'm alive and (relatively) competent, while in another   
   respect, I'm a worthless blight upon the face of humanity (not unlike   
   Covid-19, but at any rate....) This also plays into that inner peace that I   
   got from "I am *both* 'good'    
   AND 'evil'" from back when I was learning that good and evil are merely the   
   opinions of others.  Finally, I read (yesterday) where someone had split the   
   word "Love" up into at least 5 or more different meanings (based upon the   
   Greek language) and it did    
   kinda make me wonder, how *would* one define "love" without using that actual   
   word?  The only thing I could come up with is that to love is to "give life."    
   That seems to work in a very broad sense, no pun intended, but it also brings   
   into play the role    
   of male & female, as "woman draws her life from man and gives it back again."   
      
   Well, so much for a night without any memorable dreams :)
