   Had a LOT of dreams.  MANY!  Just gonna list a few that "stood out" among the   
   others:   
      
   The "Gibbs" character (played by Mark Harmon in the NCIS TV series) was   
   standing upright, facing left, in a pose apparently betrothing his love to a   
   female (also upright, facing Mark/Gibbs to the camera's right) and he was at   
   about his 60s appearance,    
   she was a bit blonde, perhaps in her 40s or 50s (the dreamer didn't get a good   
   look at her) when a question arose, something to the effect of "what if...?"   
   with respect to a question of "time"— and I apologize for not catching the   
   exact text of the    
   question, but it involved something to the effect that "what IF after X years,   
   nothing (φ) had changed" with respect to how one or both of them felt? and   
   instantly, he was 80+ to 90+ years old (and LOOKED it!) while both of them   
   stayed in their exact    
   positions, with her appearance (not having been noticed much to begin with)   
   had not apparently changed after his having aged.  Just gonna leave this   
   without a "clarity rating" as even though it was likely symbolic, his   
   character was rather clear (around    
   8+/9-) while she was barely a standing figure.   
      
   The property:  the dreamer was somehow "moving over" property that *felt*   
   adjoining OR connected to the property north of my old property at 3050 Asbury   
   Lane, only the creek wasn't present, giving me the idea that this may have   
   been in another state    
   somewhere.  The land, although contoured to some extent (Tennessee is NOT   
   "flat" except in a very few places) seemed to provide a kind of "hollow" in   
   which there was a structure akin to a homeless shanty, basically built to be   
   hidden from eyes driving    
   past (headed north-south) possibly on a road to the east.  However, from the   
   dreamer's / camera's perspective, the (western) wall provided at least SOME   
   protection from the west, and along the wall appeared to be either cribs or   
   perhaps a blanket upon    
   the ground where toddlers could romp a bit.  In fact, there did appear to be   
   perhaps 2 or 3 infants there, and the thought ran through the dreamer's mind   
   that these children were woefully unprotected against predators.  Just then, a   
   cart (vehicle,    
   perhaps?) of 2 or 3 Chinese / Asian folk appeared, and the dreamer had the   
   impression of one being a female, possibly a grandmother (but in that culture,   
   maybe in her 40s somewhere) and one being a teenaged male (possibly her son,   
   possibly the father of    
   the infants.)  There was also the impression of their possibly being "illegal   
   immigrants," but it may have had nothing to do with nations or laws or   
   anything else:  merely that humans were trying to survive in the wilderness.    
   Clarity 8 to 9.   
      
   The feeding of the creatures:  The dreamer was positioned *as if* on a high   
   floor of a building, *such as* the 7th floor of High Rise West (Corlew Hall)   
   at MTSU.  The dreamer felt *as if* [he] were "outside" the window, looking   
   down at critters    
   accumulated below, such as a wild boar, possibly wolves, a LARGE beast such as   
   a cow or bull (thought at first to be a hippo) and at least one dog that   
   appeared "similar" to my dog (in real life at this time of writing) Ginger.    
   The dreamer had what    
   seemed like a bit of a loaf of sliced (wheat?) bread, *possibly* starting to   
   get a touch of mold upon it, and the idea being that bits of bread (or slices)   
   could be dropped down to the critters below.  The dreamer seemed to be trying   
   to get Ginger's    
   attention, so as to give her "first dibs" on whatever came down, but the   
   dropping of bread from that high a location did cause some fluttering to occur   
   on the way down.  The dreamer then "flung" a slice much in the manner of   
   throwing stars, or shirken,    
   or how a card ace or magician flings a playing card like a frisbee.  There   
   seemed to be some question of the dreamer's safety, as though IF he were to   
   fall, would he have a key with which to reenter the building, and there was   
   some "discussion" (perhaps    
   with a non-observed individual, possibly "Gina," as this seemed to be   
   something *like* HER dorm room window) regarding the need or presence or basic   
   functionality of a key, as well as the concept of surviving the fall if it   
   were to occur in the first    
   place.  The end of the dream involved the dreamer "dropping down" a floor or   
   two, using ledge-bricks as finger holds, then simply dropping the last floor   
   to the ground.  Please note that in the dream, the wall of the dorm window   
   runs west-east (as in    
   real life) however, in the dream, the window was in the CORNER of an L, such   
   that there was a wall running north-south *just west of* the window, thus   
   allowing the dreamer the ability to grab those ledge bricks on the way down.    
   ALSO note, that at the    
   very bottom of the drop (from above) there seemed to be some kind of mud pool   
   / watering hole for critters to wade through.  Clarity 8+.
