Do you believe in dreams? Do you believe your dreams are worthy of your time and attention? And I'm not talking just about the dreams we have to climb mountains or pursue a new path in life...I'm also talking about our sleeping dreams. The ones that come to us underwater as we sleep and that can leave us feeling refreshed and excited, or black and blue. I have a zillion dreams. In my waking life, I am writing a book; I am performing and speaking and want to grow that career. I am doing workshops about dream wardrobe building for plus size women. The dreams are varied and important to me and I give them my time, attention and love. Also, I often have the most vivid sleeping dreams and they mean something in my life. Recently I dreamt about a person I hadn’t seen or thought of in months and the very next day who do you think I ran into? My subconscious certainly seems to know some things that I do not! Earlier this week I completed a very intense four-day workshop in which I felt exposed and truthful and the night after a very open converstaion with one of the facilators, I dreamt he and I were standing in a room together and I was naked and trying to cover up. It's not rocket science to figure out the meaning of that in my life. Some evenings I go to sleep waiting anxiously to see what worlds my dreams may place me in. Some evenings, if I’m sad or apprehensive, I look towards my dreams for perhaps a bit of comfort. Some dreams of course, are just a mish-mash of the craziest, most unlikely events but when you think about it, isn’t life just a mish mash of the craziest most unlikely events too? Think about your dreams both sleeping and awake. Give your dreams your time and your attention because dreams are where it all begins. If you want to start your own business, start looking into the steps you need to take to do so. If you want to sail around the world with your spouse, what do you need to do to prepare for that undertaking and why couldn't you do it? Likewise, listen to you night dreams. We always know the truth whether we admit it to ourselves or not.
Dreams are the roadmaps to the journey of our lives..let's follow them!
