      From: dicksilk@gmail.com              12:45 PM — So many dreams I'm certain a few will get left out, but last       night / this morning, it seemed like life was simply made for dreaming. One       that really stood out as one of the more pleasant dreams I've ever had       involved a "visit" to an "       elderly couple's home" where the interior of the living room looked like it       had been built in the 1800s yet felt more like 1920s (perhaps it had been       well-taken care of?) located as if on the main street of a small, northern       town (not like anything in        the rust belt, but possibly between the two World Wars) but what really caught       me was the *quality* and the *color* of the furnishings, more specifically,       one small throw pillow, perhaps 1'x1'x a few inches depth, made of a gorgeous       purple fabric (silk??)        with a *remarkable* sheen. There had been some observation that several       items in the room had a sheen, but that one throw pillow just amazed the       dreamer for some reason, perhaps in fascination and appreciation (awe,       wonder?) at the craftsmanship that        had gone into making it. This was a place where the dreamer wanted to       actually stay and visit, but the dream ended. Clarity 9+++ for some reason :-)              In another dream, the dreamer was involved with the location of a small       vehicle (2-to-4 seater, automobile-type) although for some reason there was       also one of those quilt-like blankets in the front seat, although the material       was more like a type used        for rugged purposes rather than comfy bedtime, although it was comfy enough to       have slept in. Clarity 8-, as it was a dark-ish scene, with practically 0       logic as to whether the vehicle was being dropped off or to be moved       elsewhere. (In my present part-       time job in real life, such information is always at the forefront of the       trip: pick-up or drop-off, and from and where to (and sometimes for why?) are       always the reason for even getting INto a vehicle.) Clarity 6 (approaching       the level of true        ignorance of the situation.)              Another dream involved a scene similar to a university professor's apartment       door, and something involving performing a technical service (such as       technology type equipment hook-up or disassembly) with the dreamer as the       tech, and some feeling of being        excused *prior* to the job being finished, as the dreamer seemed to feel       something was left in need of completion / in a state of potential unrest.        Clarity 8- (If 7 wasn't reserved for symbology, it would likely be a 7.)              In yet another dream in a dark outside area, similar to a yard which, in real       life, is located on the NE side of where Scottland Drive dead-ends to the       north. The dreamer seems to be dealing with very small critters (such as       moles, baby rabbits perhaps,        maybe a bug or two) in a plastic container (such as something used for the       sale of food items in the grocery) perhaps 5"x3½"x3½" (one of those last two       may have been by 4") AND there appeared to be two such containers filled with       identical critters,        almost like a left-view and a right-view coming in together as a single view,       or possibly the point at which one world was dividing into two worlds. At       either rate, IF I recall correctly, the dreamer had the initial thought of       destroying the contents of        the container, while the idea / action / consequence that seemed to take place       involved the dreamer gently placing the container upon the ground and allowing       whatever was inside to exit by its own free will.              In what seemed like a different scene of the same dream, same location, same       darkness, there appeared to be some flames breaking out along a section of the       yard which really stood out in the darkness of the nighttime setting, fanning       out along grass and        possibly up towards the base of a tree trunk. Having some experience with       putting out smaller fires, the dreamer quickly started stomping out all the       flames along the ground, and *I THINK* used his body (clothing) as a kind of       roller to put out the        flames along the tree trunk (as since they were "fresh" flames, there was not       as of yet much heat transferred into the bark of the tree. Such could not       have been even remotely successful with a trunk that had been in flames for       over half a minute.)        These two scenes appeared to be over, clarity 8+ (due to the darkness, and       especially the split-scenario at the beginning.)              Something I think I'm finally starting to understand (perhaps a bit late,       HUH!) is that when dreams appear as two scenes diverging (or converging)       what's being observed is a diverging (or merging) of worlds, as a consequence       of whatever decision is being        made.              One has a *choice*— to love God (oneself AND others) *NOW* and for all       eternity, or to hate (anyone or anything) until death. Simple choice.        biblehub.com/joshua/24-15.htm (See also, biblehub.com/deuteronomy/30.htm ,       specifically, verses biblegateway.       com/passage/?search=Deuteronomy%2030:15-20 .)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
