Magic Goose

Dream #2: Vintage shop. I think it's owned by an old friend. I find a cute shoe, but there's no sign of its mate. Mysterious toychest. I find a little goose inside.

It is a wind-up goose. An old tune begins to play. I can somehow see the rotation of the tiny cylinder inside.

It amazes me that the mind can compose and "hear" an original melody during sleep. Why can't I do this in my waking life?

The Color of My Mind

source: by cindyg

"I've dreamt in my life dreams that have stayed with me ever after, and changed my ideas: they've gone through and through me, like wine through water, and altered the color of my mind."

Rainbow Polaroids


Dream #1: Gray skies. Rainbows like lightning. Trying to get a snapshot with my Polaroid camera. So pretty, yet fleeting.

This dream reveals a desire to hang on to something beautiful. I want to freeze time or at least gather evidence that I can see hope in the midst of turbulence.
