5/14/00 - Dreams
#1 - A Maharishi or Monk opened a door and just stood there!!! (see illustration)

#2 - A wise man was standing , dressed in a cheetah headband, which was long, and hung down in front, making a scarf! (see illustration)

Dream:
- I was 5 hours late for my new shift, due to car trouble, sickness.

- There were kids packing, moving the contents to a new vehicle.

- I had been sick and there was a father figure there that was of no help - my family unit.

- The new vehicle (moving truck) that I was to use to get to work - was left in gear, somehow, and backed itself into a corner, and couldn't be budged.

- A divine intervention came and it got it out of the predicament.

- Next, someone came to me and told me "You will be entering a totally new level, once you get back from your trip to Washington D.C."

- This new level is one of extreme peace and satisfaction. (It turned out to be prophetic, in real life!)

2/1/00 - Earthquake Dream:

- We were on the edge of a beach when an earthquake hit.

- I looked up and was standing under some columns, so I ran out onto the water (which was green marble and curved like the earth).

- There were earthquakes there all the time - not to worry.

- I had to go back to my part-time job [back with Veronica at United Stationers], but would meet the rest of my party there, tomorrow.

- There was a man standing there, sort of behind a ticket counter. He said I could have a job anywhere with his outfit, and offered me his card.

- The next day, we went to the beach (sunny day). We had fun.

- As we were ready to leave, one lady said: "Let's stay till tomorrow."

- We told her it was too cold. But, we'd like to come back tomorrow, when the sun was warm.

- She agreed. So we did. Then I woke up.

Note: This date - Jan 04, 2000 - is a generic date I use for any dream I didn't write down the date for - therefore I need to look in the email archives for any mention of it. I discuss my dreams thru email, sometimes. Usuall to Spencer.

Calligraphy Theme song:

- "Rhapsody in Blue" (???)
-------

Ask: "How many times did she break my heart?

- Was it 9 times, was it 8 time . . . Forever?"

Classical Music I like:
