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... )

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

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.

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?
