Holy cow...and Rob thinks *my* dreams are vivid and detailed (he's right). You need not fear what is in the book of your soul, Kate, as you are a very kind and beautiful human. Thanks for the song, too. I just googled the lyric so I could sing along full voiced. xox

Dreams can be so vivid, scary or convoluted, or magical surrealism. Thanks for sharing yours. I used to try to deconstruct mine but generally don't anymore. Sometimes when I was younger I would have the same dream recur maybe twice a year. You are not alone, for sure

The quote after your dream! Talk about synchronicity. Did you do that drawing, Kate? Beautiful.

Kate, I love how clearly you articulated your dream even though the pieces didn’t seem to fit together. The nature of dreams.❤️

I agree that the world is feeling more isolating to me as time goes on…. a function of the times and aging process. Like you I strive every day to try to slow that process and open my world to new people, experiences and passions. I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday.

Dreams are so fascinating! Amazing that you saw that quote when you woke up. Right before I read your story, I had just listened to a version of a Fleetwood Mac song. So many coincidences!

Me, too. Those vivid dreams stay with us for awhile. And it's easy to begin to feel alone in this cold world, and in this increasingly mixed-up time. However, Kate, you will never be alone - you have a talent for friendship, and you have some everywhere in the world that you have been, and many places you haven't been to, because you have made a community here on the internet.
