      From: dicksilk@gmail.com              Had a few segments all jumbled up, pretty much as normal, although whether       they string together as a series or not is anybody's guess.              One involved a view of a husband (or father?) in around his early 30s, with a       female (*presumably* his daughter) of about 12 to 14 years of age, standing       beside him, a touch in front, to his right (the camera's left) as if standing       specifically for a        photo, possibly in front of their house as the background.                     There was another scene, as if apart yet somehow connected, of an ad for       either Disney (as a whole business) or DisneyWorld (in Florida) as if the       30-year old and the young teen were somehow part of an ad campaign, and the       narrative mind of the dreamer        was commenting on how the pairing was *not exactly* something that the public       would swallow easily. There was a subtext going on that, perhaps, the ad were       designed for either "new" America Muslims, who marry girls at a *very* early       age, *or* for        incestuous dads, in either case, the general appearance seemed to be a "bad       idea for an ad campaign" and the scene "switched." (I would say "the dream       ended," but what I *think* was going on....)              The dreamer was moving (as if walking) through hallways (sort of like widely       connecting hallways) and wound up in some type of issue where human       trafficking was possibly the topic of discussion, possibly a "tangent with"       the open (criminalized) southern        border along the USA (at this time in the world, where cartels are the       "military arm" of deciding who gets through and who doesn't, and extorts them       for their money in order to cross. Then there's all the illegal child-sex       trafficking going on, not to        mention all the drugs, etc.) It was more of a thought than a scene, as the       dreamer finally came out of that area into a type of scene where a "normal"       husband/wife combination were located, as if standing in a mainly "open,"       public area, such as like the        area near the front of a Wal*Mart or other department store, or public       gathering place.              The couple had a type of Nordic/Swedish look to them (genetically speaking,       the "phenotype") although seemed "American." While the dreamer was passing by,       there was a moment akin to "taking a look" while passing, perhaps to identify,       perhaps simply to        appreciate her appearance, but the husband was in no mood for "lingering       looks" and firmly placed his hand in the back of the dreamer (who felt more       teen-aged compared to the man's young 30s-to-young 40s appearance) and       practically "escorted" him away        from her, of a distance of at least 10 to possibly as many as 15 yards away.              About this time, the dreamer was feeling a bit of [I understand your having a       feeling of protection regarding your wife, but your hand in my back is feeling       to the point of really obnoxious] and about the moment the dreamer considered       somehow disengaging        that guy's hand, that dream ended.              There's this "Quantum Universe" theory that sort of uses thoughts/words to       describe how *all* reality is connected. The use of hallways as a metaphor       for "connecting ideas" (like Muslims / Shari'a to child-sex traffickers at the       border) to "normal adult        relationships" to "defending one's spouse" somewhat has all those above       sections "connected" as if possibly a single dream "journey" of sorts. If so,       the overall clarity was around 8+ / 9-, although the *feeling* of the guy's       hand in the back of the        dreamer as a means of escorting the dreamer "elsewhere" was *very* clear, like       around 10-, even though the motion through time/space was rapid enough that it       was basically a "fade to dark" background.              In another "set" of dreams, there was a building that appeared "under       construction," such that the floor had been recently concreted, yet there were       cables extending in corners all through the floor, as if cables had been       extended upwards, like as a bow,        and the concrete formed around them, except more as "pockets" than as solidly       holding them in place.              At the time of the dream, I (the dreamer) had a nearly overwhelming compulsion       to go around cutting all those cables, but the cautious side of me was feeling       the need to simply hold back, observe, take notes. Sure enough, as I write       this up, I can        totally "see" it as a construction technique for "wiring conduits" *through* a       concrete floor, *rather than* using drop lines through the frameworks of the       walls / ceilings.              Consider: each "pocket" was like an oval of around 2"–3" in width, and       around 3"–4" in length, with the depth of the ovals as being the thickness       of the concrete.              Now consider, that if for any reason someone wanted to "tap into" the       "current" flowing from + to -, seeing as there were at least 3 sets of cables       running in each bow-thru, an electrician could theoretically "cut" any of       those wires at a single level,        and from that point, install a junction box (or outlet) that would allow for       something else to be "plugged in" at that level. This would very much likely       be the "floor plan" for wiring anything (*very safely!*) running on a DC power       scheme. The "oval        pockets" through the concrete *could* allow for any *unanticipated fixes* (if       necessary) involving replacing, say, a "new set of bows" to an existing       (worn-out) "bow-thru." Theoretically, the wires under the concrete would       always be "protected" and have        no basic need for maintenance. Clarity: inspirational / visionary??              Finally, there was a set of segments, all "run together," involving a chatchka       dish / bowl, possibly atop an upright piano, in which were found at least 2       items (there were more, but only 2 were clearly identified) one being a       gold-decorated, fashion-       looking hearing aid (as if someone had cleverly/artistically "fashioned" a       hearing aid into a lady's earring) and a diamond (wedding?) ring, made of       white silver (a band of about 3mm in width, possibly 2 mm in thickness) with a       single diamond stone set (       maybe ½ carat?) and a size that was "heard" as "size 4" (ladies, of course,       but I *think* ring sizes use the same standard guage regardless of gender.)                     [continued in next message]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
