......only a silent whisper

yesterday i wrote a bit about dreams... one of my dreams... i mentioned a few things you want to learn if you are interested in your dreams.. or the dreams of others...

our subconcious minds read symbols... a tree does not pass through our dreams as a word... but rather our relationship to it... what it symbolizes to us... the big weeping willow my be a symbol of mystical enchantment... on the other hand... if when you were young you scampered up into one... fell off and hurt yourself... it would symbolize... caution... or even greater.. depending on the extent of the hurt..

i have a serious fear of bears.... when i was young... my mother and father loved to spend time camping in the rockie mountains of canada... one thing they enjoyed doing was finding bears.. back then.. bears roamed the dumps looking for food.. my father would drive into the dump as close as he could get to them and we would sit in the car and watch... one of my first memories was this big bear being curious about us... as he approched us... my mother began to become aggitated... remember yesterday i mentioned... mothers are our first teachers.... the bear came to her side of the car... my mother started to get somewhat scared... but my father assured her it was all right.. we where safe we were in the car... the bear... then put his paws and body up on the hood of the car.. this was enough to scare the life out of my mother... the big head of the bear right in front of her... only a car windsheild between her and certain death... big smile...

well... the shit hit the fan... and the car took us out of harms way... this is the learn.... the symbols that now move through my dreams when called upon...

when ever i have something that comes into my life that i should be scared off... and take note... bears pass through my dreams... it may be a casual quick blimp... or it may take up the whole dream.. me being chased by a bear.... and not finding a way to get away... but yet the bear never gets me... when i wake up.. i am in a cold sweat... this means it is serious... i am in major trouble... and need to deal with it... get the car in gear and get out of harms way.... very simple when you understand the basics...

yesterday i mentioned the new car that came into my mothers life... now having mentioned my fear of bears... the symbol... we can also see that from this memory... cars are also an important symbol to me... it was the car that delivered us from certain death.. smile.... i mentioned my father yesterday... he gifted... yes.. it was my father who drove the car that delivered us from certain death... smile... and although my mother was none to happy with him for pushing the limits... she was thankful he was the relaxed in charge man he was... nothing scared him...

these are the strong symbols that move through my dreams... if we play the game.. name that bear... i would say.. trouble... name that car... i would say... tool... name my mother... i would say... teacher... name my father.. capable...

this little event.. early in my life... created several important symbols i move through life with... symbols that i talk to myself with in dreams....

so my friends.. the moral of the story is this... if you dream... you love to talk to yourself and you need serious help... there are professionals standing by ready to take your money... just give us your visa number and everything will be alright... big big smile...

before i go... i just want to mention how much i enjoyed my visits yesterday to the photostreams of..... Di P'anna (poetry though a lens) ... m-evolve (spiritual brain tease).... olidaone (life of a tender touch)... mdunham (silent in his gift)... and several new ones i found ... as you may know... i visit a lot of artist... make a lot of comments... it is one of my joys in life... it goes very deep within me...

well... i quess that is enough for today... be good.. tiandra...
