I was walking through a small city which reminded me of the town where I grew up as a kid on the south shore of Montreal. There were activist sitting on the side of a street away from the main. A women caught my eye and we talked briefly. I was saying how I was never really part of an activist group apart from doing door to door for Greenpeace way back. Later I was trying to find her again but couldn't find the same spot. I found their office where an man greeted me. There was excitement to meet new people, to be part of a group fighting for a cause. On my way out, I see a homeless at the end of a back street, he is on fentanyl, the way his body is static, waiting for the buzz to pass. I am aware it's a dream for a moment, then the junkie wakes up and starts walking normally again. reflection My dreams will often fulfill some of my desires, this desire to connect, to share with someone else. But my dreams often announce me some changes in my life. I am not sure in this case where the dream is going, and by keeping a dream journal I can check back into my dream log to see what my dream might have been trying to tell me. I had a glipse of awareness today... The different layers of awareness in the dream are interesting: - You can be unaware and not even 'in' your dream (it's like a tv show.) - You can be in the dream and unaware (you are the main actor). -You can be aware without being the actor (you know you are dreaming but it's more like a show) - You can be aware and being the main character. With strong awareness the dream will have a tendency to freeze just before waking up. In this moment everyone in the dream stares at you. - You can be aware but keep it subtle (the dream continue to develop and you can roam in it) - You can be aware and completely be in control of the dream. It's like minecraft in creative mode.
