The power of the mind. I had a dream last night, yeah, I know, no-one wants to hear about dreams. Boring. But I'm gonna tell you anyway.
It reminded me of the novel by Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol. It was realistic of my life. I was "visited" by an old childhood friend whom I felt I wronged. In my dream we were trying to reconnect.
My next visitor was a lifelong friend, whom I miss dearly. We were just spending time with one another, happy to be together.
Next was my mother. Still struggling with an addiction issue and me still feeling helpless as I watch, not knowing if I'm helping or hurting her. Feeling frustrated and angry with her.
I understand the dream, but not what I need to do. At least with my mother anyway. That's a big concern of mine lately. I'm not good at reading between the lines.
I need a sign. A very blunt one. It almost needs to hit me in the head and say "You idiot, this is what you need to do, this is the answer!" in order for me to grasp it.
I was reading an article on mind power basically stating that once you realize that it is the power of your thoughts and beliefs that create your reality, you can create the changes you wish. Pretty much, the power of positive thinking! I think I have that book at home, maybe I should read it again.
Interesting how the mind works. Now, if I could just dream about the answers tonight!

Well, maybe you can set yourself up to get the answers, think about it and ask the question you seek the answer two a few times before drifting off to sleep. It might just set your brain up to give you the answers you wish to find. Pretty interesting stuff going on with you Bama, and I hope it all works out. -

The subconscious always has a way of revealing things to us that our consciousness tries to block out. It always delivers the message in ways you'd never expect, too. Sideways, if you will.
I'm no dream expert, so I have no idea what your subconscious is trying to tell you. Something about family and friends, I'd wager. Hope it's clearer to you than it is for me.

Dreams seem to have a way of kicking your ass. They bring up the things we carefully bury deep in our subconscious. I don't have any suggestions other than to listen carefully to that little voice in your head. -

Hege - Thanks! Good suggestion. Grape - What isn't my thinking part thinking? Let me know if you figure it out. Mixed - Life is but a dream Uni - I'm tired of having my ass kicked! You would think sleep would be an escape!
