Marianne, that was really lovely, and touching. Thanks. I think I'm going to learn to play and sing that song - it certainly resonates with me.

Dennis, if you do learn to play and sing this ... please consider sharing it on the forum.

Still getting 2-3 storms a week. I’ve lost count but I believe this makes at least 8 weeks in a row.

Woke up to the sound of the snowplow truck. I was in the middle of a dream where someone was running up a steep hill with me. The reason was because I dodged between cars on a busy street by taking big leaps. People didn’t notice because I was quick and it was nighttime.

This woman and I ran like the wind. Without forethought, I shouted to her in the ‘pretend language’. She gave a look of surprised and dotted off in another direction. It was the same language that my sister and I used when we were younger.

Then the scene changed where I tried to allude authorities that heard me speak the language. I was able to lighten my body and spring from place to place and sometimes float.

It’s crossed my mind that the language wasn’t pretend but recall. Perhaps the dream was an out-of-body experience. It matched the ones I use to have when I was younger. If that’s the case, I liked that I wasn’t afraid of the runner and stood my ground.

Sounds like you are moving closer to an awake and connected lucidity in the various 'dream states'. The more fundamental requirement is the loss of the deeper through-functions (consciousness system layer filters), the body fears. They tend to be laid out in the more fundamental terms. When we break, or more relax their hold, then the explorations unfold in a more connected earnest. IME, the recollections encompass multiple formats and experiences, no two being alike, no form of system, no result, no recall being a constant. Meaning, it will not be a singular change point but a gradual one, like statistical function, experience envelopes (individual recollections of instance) as varied as the nature that singular 'human' situations can be.

A video from here, against bigotry and fear. Since no one else did it, I took the liberty of translating it myself.

"Muslims Maryan and Sadek wanted to fight prejudice and racism, and contribute to show confidence in Finnish people.
Inspired by the world hit social experiment and Kioski, they stood blindfolded in center of Helsinki station tunnel and asked for hugs."

To start with, the signs say, from left to right:

- Finnish man, I trust you!
- I am a muslim that the world has labelled a terrorist. If you trust me, hug me!
- Finnish woman, I trust you!

I know cryptozoological videos online are dubious at best. This video allegedly shows one of my favorite extinct animals, the dodo, alive in Costa Rica. I know this is ridiculous because the dodo was endemic to the island of Mauritius in Indian Ocean. Who knows how it would've gotten to Costa Rica, sure as hell didn't fly there. Ha! The Dodo survives hanging out with his iguana buddies. Maybe it will go visit Ulli and we can confirm its existence. Here and now, until next time.....

I don't know how clicking on Playdo's link got me to end up on the People at Walmart page. I guess after the stresses of the last three weeks I was ready for some light entertainment.
Anyway, whatever! Thank you Playdo. I really enjoyed the laugh. Especially after reading this comment under one of the photos there. I dare anyone to find the matching picture.

"WOW. Well, it’s no real surprise that this lady’s shopping for some new threads, is it? We’d suggest that she just buys something. Anything. Because there really is no excuse whatsoever for that t-shirt. Even if it’s telling the truth. In fact, especially if it’s telling the truth. What a truly awful thought that is. This calls for a little white lie, they never hurt anyone did they? I suggest if you see this woman, promptly get out of her way."

That is amazing. You know what I discovered about Homer, just recently?
He drives a pink car and he lives in a pink house.

Maybe the People of Walmart are all identified with the Homer Simpson character.
Or is it the other way around?

Found a picture of Homer's car...having a bad hair day....

By the same token, if there was a reason for Homer to scribble those symbols on the blackboard (and it appears there was), then there must also be a reason why the car is pink. I can't find it.
