Dreamworks
Throughout my life I've had dreams that stood out. I would remember them months later in vivid detail. It didn't happen often, maybe once a year. And these dreams always had a stong point:don't be foolish, don't worry, etc.
These dreams would show something in my future and it almost seemed as if I was giving myself guidance on the issue. For example, I'm in high school and have a very vivid dream of me driving my car holding a huge square of yellow paper on the steering wheel, writting. What struck me was how foolish it was to be writting on that yellow paper and not paying attention to the road. I thought this dream was a figurative warning and left it at that. A few months later I attended a seminar about a summer job that had the potential to be very lucrative. I was so excited that while driving home I grabbed a Post-it Note, stuck it on my steering wheel and started doing calculations, suddenly that dream came back to me. I quickly put the paper aside and drove home.
This may seem a silly example, but it is idicative to me of how important it is to listen to my dreams. I don't use books to interpret my dreams, I use what the symbols mean to me. Besides, it comes from my Head not someone else's, or I should say, that's what I believe. :)
The point of this whole section? I've learned to accept and use this special gift to help me through my life. My ol'brain has all kinds of info in there if I learn to listen to it. It astounds me how often we are taught to ignore intuition, deja-vu, and dreams. This is how our subconcious communicates with our waking brain. There is alot of unfiltered, raw, useful stuff in there if we only pay attention.
Aug 1999. Goal for the next month...write down dreams every night to interpret them. Long-term goal..work towards lucid dreaming!
