It may also help you to better understand your *own* dreams in like manner!)
I'm not actually sure I even like remembering my dreams. I did used to
remember a lot more and make an effort to remember them when I was
young. For some time I've not really thought much about it and let them
fade as is the default human condition. Looking upon my old haunts on
Usenet with the soon to be dismantling of GG brought me back to them.
Is it even helpful to remember and analyze them. I don't know. There
is some entertainment to be had from them, but it also feels somehow
wrong in a way I can't put my finger on.
The time to write in the morning is difficult to find during the week as
well.

Quite possible. Things I want to change, but am otherwise hopeless about.

I'm an agnostic Californian as you so put it so venomously in another
reply. I've had exposure to a number of religions growing up, I find
good and bad in all of them, even atheism such as it is or isn't a
religion.
The only thing that's really stuck with me is what my grandfather taught
me in his self proclaimed religion of the "Brick church" which is to
follow the golden rule of "Do onto others as you would have them do unto
you." Which is basically what your link is about.
Even that is difficult follow ethically, as there are things others
would want done to them that I wouldn't and vice versa and etcettera.
and it's easy to justify certain things that are otherwise self
evidently wrong with it.
He also taught me "Everything in moderation." Which I also believe where
it can apply, but I don't remember finding that in any religion.
The other thing organized religion has is community and co-operation,
which is a huge flaw of atheism. There's been attempts, but I'd say
they're largely failures and suffer from taking opposite stances from
rebelling against Christianity specifically rather than forging
something without such prejudices.
I've managed to find community and co-operation elsewhere, but it's
crumbled under changes especially those brought by the lockdowns of Covid.
I find evangelization distasteful, rude, and fails the golden rule in my
case. Would you want someone trying to convert you to another religion?
If so then I'll happily send you all the atheist links I come across.
Otherwise I will will expect to be treated in kind. I will no longer
reply to such attempts, even doing so this once is against my better
judgement, but you seem otherwise cordial and I'll forgive the severe
breach of etiquette this once.
