Dreams are real

The other night I had a very powerful dream. It was full of information and symbolism. My father came to me and showed me two mountain tops, it was pitch black and all I could see where the stars. He pointed to the first mountain top to our right, there was a white owl and another kind of white furry animal. Then he pointed to the mountain top to our left, there was a bald eagle, a buffalo and a native american man dancing around. It was so incredible that I quickly ran to a place where I could write it all down because I knew I was dreaming and I knew I had to remember all of these signs. Anyway when I woke up I wrote about it some more and looked up some of the meanings on dreammoods.com one of my fav sights for dream interpretation. Thankful today for my insight through the dream world...

ahhhhhh Mexico...

  So I've just returned from an amazing voyage across the sea. Yes, thats right, Mexico coastline and more. This huge cruise ship was like a mall on water, or like Vegas on ski's lol. It had everything you could imagine and more!! Pools, work out room, rock climbing, mini golf, basketball, fine dining every night, shows shows shows, casino, club, shopping, ice skating, ummmmm oh all you can eat buffet anytime... I mean this ship was wild. Everyday I would wake up and say, whats the adventure today? and sure enough it was followed with much activity and even personal growth (I can't get enough). The amazing group of friends that surrounded me everyday couldn't of been better. Such vibrant souls and true companions. How did I get so lucky? and all this because a dream I had. One of those dreams that scream "this is not your average dream!!" so I followed up on it and now life is richer and more beautiful than I could ever imagine.
  One of the many moments that stick out for me was the feeling of oneness on that boat. Everyone including staff was from another place, even country, and we all are on a ship together in awe of the ability of its massiveness to move. People said hello as you passed by them, with a warm smile even. Conversation would strike up at the drop of a hat with the stranger next to you. No matter what your age or race people seemed to be more open and warm. Is it due to the "we on vacation" vibe lets be nice?  or maybe because everyone was well rested? and why isn't my everyday back home like this? Is it that hard to find commonality between people? I dont think so we just forget to try.  I forget to try, I know the little effort it takes to have great results. Kindness, such an amazing virtue. So imma give it a better chance, try and see what happens. I know with all my heart we are one, but its even greater to see it...

Died and went to heaven in a dress

So I'm not much of a dress wearing kinda girl... don't get me wrong I love girly goodies, pink and purples, lacy and black, anything shiny or glittery and def a sucker for some animal print. But too much ruffle duffle and flower power isn't for me. Rarely do I find a dress (let alone 4) that grab at my heart strings but here ya go, these got me. Then of course you need jewelry to go with it and this girl was killin it. So I died and went to heaven... a few times.

Trucks = Joy!!!

I've had this slight obsession for old trucks since I was a little girl. My daddy had an old canary yellow 52 GMC, didn't run much but I would sit in the drivers seat and day dream of the time I would be a grown up. Riding the streets of Oregon (where I'm from) in this truck that told so many stories. It told me I was tough yet sweet, dirty yet classy, dangerous yet protected. I have such a strong connection to my boyish side and my girly girl side that a truck done right will be another huge piece to my picture of life. ( wow almost poetry) Anyhoo trucks rule and so does purple...

Friendship

As time goes by we make new friends, and hopefully (like the song) keep the old... I feel like I am constantly learning how to be a good friend. I'm not the one that calls you everyday (but when I do we pickup right where we left off),  or offers to take care of your dog when you leave town (or cat or kid), but I do know this, I will always give you love, honesty, trustworthiness, loyalty, and show up at the club for your bday party even though I'm already cozy in my bed. Its such a small gesture that can go a long way for someone. How hard is it to take an hour out of my night to show up to an overly crowded overly egoed club to say hello and shake it a bit? Not so bad and knowing that small things make a difference then I'm down to do it (except when the sitter falls through).  A wise old man told me "small things turn into great things". My small thing was turned into a "great" emotion of happiness and value for the other person. Happy birthday Jerry Lorenzo!!! I know friendship has a lot more involved but this was one gem I found...
