Dreaming. One can dream in surrender, or dream it up, dream it into. I had a dream recently, one that started via surrender in the usual manner after falling asleep. It was an anxiety dream, very pedestrian or so it seemed. I was driving, trying to find a common store on a main road that I wasn't familiar with- as if I was in another town. According to previous research, it was supposed to pop up any time along the strip where I was headed, but I wasn't exactly sure how far. I would get anxious, talk myself down, repeat. Then a voice (in the dream it was my own brain) said "you're not driving, look." And I did look. There was no road exactly, no steering wheel, & everything was presented as flat bands of color, as in a comic book. Well. All right then. Which means.. Which means I do not need to follow car driving rules. I can focus, & go there. Somewhere in that process, I realized that I was dreaming & roused myself, the reminder remaining. If you focus, you can just go there. Extraneous negative thoughts or unhelpful energies whatever form they take can be strained away from the task at hand, large or small, with commitment and focus on what is truly wanted out of any given situation. So, We Can Do It, yes, like the t-shirt says. And here's the next line, the other shoe- you must do it. Content of distractions is not meaningless, but Direction must be chosen in the ever-new responsibility of Dreaming/Into. Happy Cleaning.
