My dream

[centeruniverse]

I had a great dream last night. I was in a high school, but it wasn't mine and I doubt I've ever been there before. Looking out the many windows, I'd say it was still in the Pacific Northwest, and furthermore in somewhere slightly less developed than I'm used to. I knew I was twenty (at one point, I even told someone my age) which in and of

Great dream.

Once I had a dream about an angel. Even though I couldn't look at the being standing in front of me I knew it was an angel, and there was this strong energy around it. And even though I didn't tough it the energy flew into me. And I never wanted to be without this power again. When I woke up later I knew that I could do everything.

Even though you don't believe in anything supernatural your dream kind of reminds me of mine. My angel didn't come back, but still I can drain power from this dream. It was about 5 years ago, and I can still feel the power inside of me.

And now you probably think I'm a religious freak. Please don't think so.

Well, it's not that I don't belive in anything supernatural, it's that I believe that there's a scientific explanation for everything, even if we don't know the science to explain it yet.

I was actually thinking hoping that it was an experience on the astral plane (which I believe in every now and then). I like to think that many of my dreams are actually happening somewhere.

And it would be nice if I could use this to draw power in the future. It would sure beat feeling the need to drug myself with caffeine... But I'd like him to come back anyway. He made me feel safe/loved.

And you don't sound like a religious freak. You filtered what does sound quite a bit like the same experience I had through your belief framework. Doesn't make you a religious freak, just makes you a bit religious (as opposed to not religious, like me).

Drain, draw - oh my god, I'm exhausted *shakes head*. But you got me anyway.

The idea of our dreams happening somewhere is interesting, I think I'll think about it tomorrow when I have the time.

And I know what you mean about feeling loved and safe. Even though it might sound as if I'm only repeating what you're saying that's how I felt in my dream as well.
Even though I've tried several times to explain my feelings words are simply not strong enough. I'm having trouble to explain it in my own language, let alone in a foreign one.

I'm glad you don't think I'm a religious freak. You're right, I am a bit religious, but I kind of adjusted Catholic beliefs to something I can believe in.

Yeah, I really couldn't explain the sensations I felt in the dream to someone else, but I can still feel them so clearly if I just think about them again. It's like I've got a line of current running along my center, keeping me energized and up. I like it.

I've been through a few religions. I was born agnostic, went into Luthranism, rejected it, tried Wiccanism, didn't like the multiple, non-perfect gods, tried making my own religion, realized that was how all religions were started, and declared myself an atheist. Recently, I've reinstated the agnosticism as well, so I'm someone who doesn't know whether or not there's a higher power, but I don't think so. But that doesn't mean I don't believe in different forms of energy or consious energy.

As I was reading this post I couldn't help but attempt to interpret it... the way you described the "high school" it sounded like the way you percieve people around you, the reason it was in a school may be because that's where you spend a great deal of your time. The feeling of being lost could be translated into real live, even if not quite so literally. Finding the one person in all the chaos that made you feel safe and loved with a single touch, someone you could enjoy spending time with... I often have dreams very similar to this. I can't stop searching, even in my dreams.
And as always doll, if any of this just sounds like a load of crap tell me so, :)

Well...not a load of crap, but perhaps too much emphasis on the "lost" and "searching"...at all times, even when I was suposed to be somewhere, I didn't feel like I had to be there...kind of like an "I should, but it's not going to be a big deal if I don't"

And I wasn't really searching for anything...I was just kind of there. I happened to find someone (or, more accurately, they found me...) but that wasn't the...point? I don't know. I'll talk to you about this on the phone if you want, but I don't think I can type it properly.

you read my mind hehe... i'll try calling tonight during one of my breaks to make sure it'd be ok to call after work hehe

[centeruniverse]

I might not get home until very late...or semi-late, depending on how my program goes...

But either way, I'd like to talk to you. Please call.
