Living a symbolic life
Not much happening in my dream life right now. It puzzles me how dreams come and go. I have no idea what determines how much we remember or what we dream about. I know Jung says that dreams are compensations for daily life. Perhaps I don't need any compensation right now. My life is moving along in a way I never thought possible. There has come an ease and kindness that I have been searching for forever, and here it is. I don't even know how to account for it: I just know that it is here. I welcome these days where the world I live in is friendly, compassionate, sensitive, and welcoming. Of course there are challenges: I wouldn't want it any other way. However the challenges are not overwhelming me or destroying me. All of these current experiences suggest and validate for me that there is a self-regulating system at work in me that may be conscious at times and unconscious at other times. Perhaps this is the result of living a symbolic life.

Singing to you:
Days Like This by Van Morrison
When its not always raining, there’ll be days like this
When there’s no one complaining, there’ll be days like this
When everything falls into place like the flick of a switch
Well my mama told me there’ll be days like this
When you don’t need to worry, there’ll be days like this
When no one’s in a hurry, there’ll be days like this
When you don’t get betrayed by that old judas kiss
Oh my mama told me there’ll be days like this
When you don’t need an answer, there’ll be days like this
When you don’t meet a chancer, there’ll be days like this
When all the parts of the puzzle start to look like they fit
Then I must remember there’ll be days like this
When everyone is up front and they’re not playing tricks
When you don’t have no freeloaders out to get their kicks
When its nobody’s business the way that you wanna live
I just have to remember there’ll be days like this
When no one steps on my dreams, there’ll be days like this
When people understand what I mean, there’ll be days like this
When you ring out the changes of how everything is
Well my mama told me there’ll be days like this
