milky tea slush

Jun 30, 2007 04:32

I left the house at 2:30 pm today and did not return (at least, not without friends and to actually shut down for the evening) until after 3 a.m.

It's now edging towards 5, and I am awake. Wide awake.

One of the places I have traveled when I walk the line between worlds... )

dreams, life

I don't have dreams like this very often, but when I do... they really haunt me 83;

I, uhh, think you should write all that out into a story. >_>; Sounds really awesome. :3

*hugs* Good to see you, though, I've been wondering where you were. ♥

I think maybe I should to... It would just be hard choosing a direction for it... play up the adventure aspect and make it suitable for children? Or play up the potential boylove aspect and make it not so safe for the wee babes? 83;

*hugs!* I have been... stupidly busy. For someone working a less than full time slave wage job. Argh. I was beginning to wonder about you too though!!<3<3<3

Well, uhh, *cough* I'm sure either way would be absolutely fantastic. (But you know I love the boylove! XD)

Boo on stupidly busy! >_<; Hope you're doing alright though. *massive hugs!* ♥♥♥

Very cool dream. And you know they say if you feel compelled to "share" a dream...it bears closer inspection, thought, contemplation.

Have you read "Vellum?"

I haven't read "Vellum"... I've tried to pick it up more than once now and it's been out of stock or unavailable! I think I will try again today. I need new reading... "The Historian" (which i have been slowly chewing through for getting on months now,) just isn't quite doing it for me like I hoped it would.

And I didn't know that about dreams! But I will definitely be contemplating this one... I think I might turn to my sketchbook for help with that, actually.<3

Yes, keep dreaming! That is the way to go... I find though, that even if I can make it back to a particular dreamscape, things have often changed on me once I get there! ^^;

There you are!!! *hugs*

What a tantalising dream. It begs any number of questions: Who are these cat-humans? What do they do? Are they alone in this ocean-world? Why did you have a mentor? Why would you leave (looking for something, trying to get away from something, on a spiritual quest)? What might the message of such a story/dream be?

You know, this really would make an interesting children's book. I'd love to see you write it up, too. I think there's something of power in this for you (in keeping with Zag's thought). Perhaps thinking about the bigger questions might help you decide how it ends. I generally think the most important question to answer before you start (not that dreams work this way, but we can) is "what's the message?".

When I have dreams this vivid and coherent, I usually find it's because something is brewing or stewing in my brain. Something that is seeking resolution.

I am alive! Just... swallowed by the retail beast this week. And probably next week. Le sigh.

The dream was an intriguing experience... I can put together a few elements that may have been on my mind that would team up to create such a landscape and even the inhabitants, but it was all shiny and new in my sleeping brain.

I think it might too. I would also love to draw parts of it up... it was all so green and blue and lush. Very tactile. The message is what I couldn't tell you. That is what I always struggle with in any piece that I start. But I'm thinking about it. It's simmering on the thought stove.

Resolution... is something I need right now from a few places. Maybe that is a good area to start my exploration?
