I don't dream anymore

[Cassie]

I had a recurring dream when I was little about a witch, everything was black and there were black spider web things. ALSO, I dreamed there was a little evil gnome in the garden outside my bedroom window, and I could see his hat from where I was laying, which became REAL when I woke up but then it disappeared. I believed in all sorts of magical things.

Now I only believe in magic ducks.

I had a lot of recurring dreams when I was a child but I took control of them. Lucid dreaming.

I know people think talking about dreams is boring and I apologize.

I did that too. It was awesome. Didn't even realize I wasn't the only one able to do that, until years later when I read about lucid dreaming.

Seriously. Scary dreams become pleasant. I've punched out monsters that were chasing me before. Falling dreams become flying to Hawaii dreams.

I remember dreams from childhood more clearly than actual childhood memories.

Tell us about them. I think this shit is interesting.

“I dreamed I was a butterfly, flitting around in the sky; then I awoke. Now I wonder: Am I a man who dreamt of being a butterfly, or am I a butterfly dreaming that I am a man?"

“If water derives lucidity from stillness, how much more the faculties of the mind! The mind of the sage, being in repose, becomes the mirror of the universe, the speculum of all creation.”

I will call this day "Deep Friday."

Isn't a speculum that thing they use during pelvic exams?

That's not what I call it, even though that instrument is indeed called such by polite persons.

However,

spec·u·lum

   [spek-yuh-luhm]

noun, plural spec·u·la  [-luh] , spec·u·lums.

1. a mirror or reflector, especially one of polished metal, as on a reflecting telescope.

2. speculum metal.

3. Surgery . an instrument for rendering a part accessible to observation, as by enlarging an orifice.

4. Ornithology . a lustrous or specially colored area on the wings of certain birds.

When Loktar is dressed, he could be a speculum.

I've lost track what we were talking about. I tend to do that.

Dreaming ...
or not.
Remembering dreaming ...
or not.

Torture devices.

 

[Filthy Whore]

I've never dreamt of torture devices.

Dreamt... what a lovely word. Use it more, don't let it go obsolete.

I dreamt of a multi-post, and it happened thus.

Im much more concerned about 6.5 hours of real sleep a day plus.

Dreams are incidental.

Did I ever tell you Joseph Chilton Pierce was my senior advisor in high school?

[Filthy Whore]

I don't care.

I kind of feel if I described cherished childhood drams they'd lose some of their magic in my mind. Actual serious post!
