Living the Dream

I've been doing a lot of thinking...
Today has been a day for deep thought. I've had lots to do at the Inn and at the little house, so while I work, I think. Sometimes I'm not sure if that is a good thing or not. I think it's called "stream of consciousness." One thought leads to another and before you know it, you are no where near where you started. I very dear friend of mine contacted me today to let me know he has a radio show on the web. I'm thrilled for him. He's an excellent writer and I'm sure this will give him a jump start on his second career.
I need to finish my chapter for the book I'm editing. I've been thinking about my jouney as a writer. I remember as a kid waking up in the middle of the night after an extremely vivid dream, rushing to my desk, and writing down everything I remembered before the remnants of my subconscious life drift away. In most cases, when I awoke in the morning and read what I wrote, I couldn't figure out why it made so much sense when I wrote it and now it was, well, gobblygook! Hmmm.... I must have been living this other life when I went to sleep and I wasn't suppose to remember everything when I woke up, but I did. In fact, I still do. I lead an awake life and a dream life. Now my question is which is real? Is my dream life my real life or is my awake life the real life? That is something to ponder. For me, my dream world is extremely vivid. Sometimes I am so busy in my dreamworld that I wake up tired. AND I still have a whole awake life to live before I go back to my dream world. I wonder what that means.
So let's say that the dream world is real and the wake life is not. What does that really mean? Are the people in your dream world different or the same as the people in your awake life. Do you have the same job in both worlds? Do you act the same? Is your value system the same or different? Think of the possibilities. I heard once that if you fall while you are "sleeping" and don't wake up before you hit the ground, you will die. Is that true? And if it is, does your awake life go on and your dream world die? Interesting thought...
Time for bed. I'll let you know in the morning what happens in my dream world tonight before I go back to "life at the Inn."
Until later... Good night.
