   From: dicksilk@gmail.com   
      
   Had an unusual "image" this morning, likely sometime between 5:30 AM and 8:30,   
   of a dark background (like a black screen) with very thin, white lines   
   arranged as if at the upper left corner of a picture frame:   
   And while I can use a character to show 3 across, ≡, the only way to show 3   
   down would be like would be similar to: "װ" (I know, that's only 2 lines, but   
   there were 3 in the image / vision.)   
      
   What's more, these lines had even spacing between them, and were, as I   
   mentioned, coming together at a right (90°) angle, *perhaps* ½" apart, but   
   they *could* have been a full inch (or any amount!) depending upon perspective.   
      
   Also, these lines did not *meet* (did not "touch") at all where they met   
   toward the "upper left" corner:  They all had that same gap-distancing running   
   diagonally from the upper left corner toward the lower right (at a 135°\215°   
   angle, assuming 0° is "   
   straight up" north.)   
      
   Also, these lines (2 pair of 3 lines each) appeared to be *perfectly   
   straight*, similar to the accuracy provided by a digital CAD/CAM or Paint.exe   
   (old Windows art-type) program.  I have *NO* idea what this could have meant.    
   I was fascinated by the    
   beauty of the simplicity of the design, and was trying to "focus" on whether   
   there may have been more lines, or more "to the picture," etc., when the dream   
   ended.   
      
   Now *if* I'd been at a fine arts gallery or something and viewing a painting /   
   illustration on a wall, I'd give it a clarity of 10, as those lines were   
   simply *that* accurate.  Although as a dream / vision, without verbal   
   narrative, I'd say it gets    
   around a clarity 2, for simply dimensionality of length & width, as a possibly   
   study in darkness and light.  (OK, maybe a clarity 4 then.  If it had been a   
   work of art?  Who knows?  Priceless, maybe?)   
      
   In another rather shadow-based scene, in a dimly lit background with only the   
   shadow-figure of a female scurrying quickly from left-to-right, the dreamer   
   was *very* much reminded of a scene from real life back in the early Fall   
   semester of 1981 at MTSU,    
   and the figure reminded me of Gina.  (A specific event, too long to go into   
   detail in a dream blog, but I'm fairly certain I may have mentioned it in my   
   book at tinyurl.com/TKC-freeview .)   
      
   That the dreamer's perspective was viewing it as the figure moving   
   left-to-right means that, if it had been actually viewing a "shadow" of the   
   *actual* past, the dreamer's perspective would've been *opposite* of where I   
   was standing IRL back in 1981.   
      
   Late somewhere in the middle of last night, there was a *blip* type vision of   
   a rather *old* woman, well into her 90s, possibly 100s, based on the wrinkled   
   appearance of her skin, but her eyes were smiling and kind.  The background   
   was soft darkness, and    
   her image seemed to be blue-lit in some manner (Doppler-shifted?)  After the   
   blip, in my mind, I was wondering if that could *possibly* have been Gina?  I   
   certainly wouldn't be thinking of anyone else that old for any reason.  All   
   sorts of curious about    
   that one.  Clarity 9+/10- despite the lack of anything in the background.
