Dreams

Sleep

If you didn’t need sleep, what would you do with all the extra time?

I enjoy very vivid dreams so I would miss that part of my life. I often bring what goes on in my awake life into my dream life so it’s not uncommon for me to come away with enhanced understanding of troublesome situations. Also, many of my dreams are ludicrous so I enjoy them. I believe they replace the play I enjoyed as a child. Even if I remember a miserable dream, I can usually trace it back to a situation I need to explore. I would miss sleep.

I am normally up between four and five.  I’d love to sleep later, but my eyes spring open like a cheap window shade .  I am desperate to be out of bed.  Yesterday morning, for some reason, I dozed back off. The crazy dreams started.  It was miserable.  I dreamed I was supposed to be at a mail-carrier job ninety miles away.  Every effort to get there fell through.  First, II couldn’t find black pants I had to wear.  Next, I had dawdled and not gotten ready.  I kept struggling, but one impediment after another held me back. It was misery, like trying to push syrup up a hill with a stick.  I was so glad to finally wake up.  This morning, I jumped straight up.  It was so much better.
