   2023/01/23 Monday: Anime strips! "7th Se   
   23 Jan 23 07:32:22   
   
   From: dicksilk@gmail.com   
      
   In a dream (possibly a sequence of events) before waking, the dreamer was in   
   the right "front seat" perspective of a vehicle, yet it was *as if* the   
   dreamer were actually driving the vehicle, because there was a [dark   
   semblance/resemblance] of the    
   dreamer on the left side of the car, who seems to be giving direction to the   
   dreamer (on the right— but as an American, I use "left hand drive" rather   
   than "right hand drive" of the Brits, so this dream was a bit odd from the   
   start.)   
      
   The "dark" character and the "light" dreamer (really hard to see this in any   
   other perspective) were somewhat akin to my "darker past" and my "current   
   Now", so I'll refer to them as "DP" and "CN" for the narration of this journal   
   entry.  DP was saying to    
   CN *something* along the lines of "I know where we'll find him— just up   
   ahead, that's where he always goes."   
      
   It seems the two were working together for the purpose of *finding Landon*   
   (although in the dream, it had the sense of DP being similar to my late   
   brother-in-law, BeBo, and the search was as if he were looking for his son,   
   BlBo, back when BlBo was maybe    
   7–9 years old.   
      
   As the two in the vehicle (DP & CN) pulled forward, as if along a road or   
   alleyway (more like one of those extended, paved areas that are off the main   
   road, yet act *as* a road within a business zone) there came into view a   
   building, ahead to the left,    
   which reminded the narrative mind of the dream of a daycare facility, a place   
   where a young child would go if in need of a comforting, "safe" space.  And   
   sure enough, there on a kind of short porch with 2 or 3 front steps was   
   sitting young BlBo.   
      
   What I'd like to point out is that sometimes, in dreams, a "familiarity of   
   association" may give a hint of someone *else* /rather than/ the actual   
   individual, thus, while in the dream it was as if DP were BeBo and the young   
   boy were BlBo, DP was *   
   actually* my "darker past" and the young boy was my 3rd-born son, Landon   
   (although his genetic paternity has yet to be confirmed, IRL.)   
      
   I know this was Landon because of what followed:  Someone (DP or CN?) asked   
   the boy kindly, "What've you been doing?" (or "up to?" but not in any kind of   
   accusatory manner— rather like simple, fatherly curiosity) whereupon the   
   child seemed more of a    
   teenager and presented an anime-type cartoon strip (listed in panels running   
   from the top-downwards) of about 4 or 5 panels, followed by another strip of   
   the same type and length.   
      
   At the bottom of each strip was a clearly written cellphone number.  (They   
   just seemed like cellphone numbers, rather than a "dedicated landline" type   
   "house number.")  It was understood that one number was for Logan, and one for   
   Landon.  And while the    
   numbers were *clearly* legible in the dream, I find that pulling them *out* of   
   the dream into waking consciousness to be like trying to "see" 20 digits (from   
   somewhere in the middle) of π on two flash cards (10 apiece per card) and   
   trying to recall them    
   from memory.   
      
   The overall clarity of the dream was around 10-/9+, but it made "more sense"   
   after waking than it did within the dream itself, although the dream-mind   
   *did* identify the anime as Landon's artwork.   
      
   ===   
      
   Just a quick catch-up on something I dreamed somewhere within the past 2 weeks   
   (*certainly* within the month of January, 2023) involved a *very subtle* type   
   dream (of around the clarity "very dimly lit" category) wherein was seen a   
   pair of arms slightly    
   off to the dreamer's right-side perspective, and they were starting to open a   
   "sealed" scroll, like the kind they used to seal with wax in ancient times.    
   Such may be considered as "the breaking of a seal."  This of course brings to   
   mind the "7th Seal"    
   of the "7 Scrolls" of the Book of the Revelation of Saint John of Jesus   
   Christ, such as in https://biblescan.com/search.php?q=seven+scrolls+revelation   
   — however, there was no sense of *what* the scroll contained.   
      
   All I can tell you (from the dream) is that there's a sense that *one* of   
   those 7 scrolls that had been sealed has been opened, according to that vision   
   / dream, perhaps of "clarity 7" 😇 👁️
