I have a new obsession. It all began in May when I was reading a spiritual novel written by this Indian fellow, I have been really interested in the differences between the dream state and the so called reality. Then I watched half of the movie Waking Life and got really into lucid dreams because once you master that you basically can exist in two different worlds. Along with that you can be less needy because the dream state becomes a second reality where once you can control it you basically can have anything you want. Which in a sense is scary.
Now I have decided as I sleep to make dream logs and attempt to force myself to wake up after every dream to write it down. Sounds crazy but it is one of the only ways to work you into being able to eventually control the so called uncontrollable dreams that are your mind at rest. Therefore, I am going to record my dreams in here and eventually I should see a pattern and then be able to revisit certain places and maybe be able to see something called "dream signs." My biggest goal is to be able to meet up with maybe you in my dream. Almost like I could attempt to invade your dream.. in a positive way haha. And hopefully one or both of us could recall it.
These were a few of the dreams or things I remember I had last night..or things I scribble down in the middle of the night:
being at a Dave Matthews Band show
Robin Williams standing in between 2 bodyguards
I figured it was Boyd Tinsley like at the Soulive show because Boyd was not on stage
I said Hi to Robin Williams and he flicked me off
Later he gave me a hug and apologized and talked to me about things I cannot recall
I explained this meeting to Matt Weber at my Freshman lunch table
flying on a plane?
Mikey Szymkowiak*s house?
Barb (mom*s friend) and her grandson?
making a vegetable pizza
mad at my mom?
This is the weirdest incident: I remember writing down all these dreams but when I woke up this morning they were not written down so I guess it was part of one of my dreams
Leanne mentioning something about Nancy?
Javi and I ran around a hallway for a few hours and just talked about random things and Diane eventually joined us and it was spectacular because it was like the feeling of running minus the fatigue.. running should be fun today haha.. Everyone left me for a while then Javi came back spazzing about having to babysit and I gave him a lecture on the importance of rest throughout the summer.
eating raspberry dark chocolate
Peter spoke to me about it on the phone before I went to bed
offering me to take wood for some sort of bonfire?
I never appreciated how many dreams you have in one night because your mind tries to erase them as you go along but you can teach yourself to remember these things. I finally found out why I sometimes feel like my teeth feel like they are falling out in many of my dreams and it is because of excess worrying. My next thing I wanna figure out is why I sometimes feel like I cannot run.
Anyways this is my new interest and I thought it would be interesting to share. Violent Femmes is tonight and I must start preparations.
Peace to all *Jordan
