Current Status: Missing one Sam the Dog greatly
Yes I miss her....so much! As i'm sure you all do. Life goes on I suppose...? We'll see about that one. Speaking of LIFE...mine is crazy right now. Life is crazy in general.... i've just been getting the most wild news lately, specifically in the past couple of days. So many people are going through more than they've ever gone through, and despite the intensity of it all, more intense things are coming. Some of them are so good, and some of them are just really hard to accept. It's weird, but i think our dreams have a lot to do with everyone's lives right now. I dream a lot, but i rarely remember my dreams because it takes me at least 30 mins to become functional at all in the morning, and as my mind is waking up, my dreams are fading fast. I believe that dreams are actual spiritual activity....what is going on the spiritual realm, in other words. So I sleep every night, and I dream every night. And every morning I wake up with this fading sense of hyper-reality. It is the most bizarre thing, and this morning I woke up to an accompanying feeling of disappointment. That reality, the reality of the spiritual realm, is stronger than our present reality, of the physical world. And it does just that: it makes me feel REAL, and totally and completely alive. I know this has parallels with drugs and all that but that is not really what I am getting at. What I am trying to convey is a longing I don't even want to know i have sometimes. There is that CS Lewis quote about the child playing in the filthy slums and being totally comfortable, when in reality a beautiful vacation at the sea awaits him, but he remains in his filth. The nagging feeling of false comfort, a divine revelation that has not yet reached the mind, a knowledge of truth without the feelings to accompany it. I hope all of these things will catapult me into a massive search for Reality, for God, and for Hope for all of us. If this doesn't, i really don't want to wait and see what will.
