    • A Fascinating Subject


      Maze

      Our dreams are cast from "tidbits" of information that we are not conscious of from our days past.
      ~ a glimpse of an old photo while rummaging through a drawer.
      ~ a fragrance that we catch
      ~ a TV show that we aren't paying full attention to
      I can usually trace the players from my dreams back to a source that I'd experienced the day or two before.
      The plot of most of my dreams is a problem or puzzle that I want to figure out. I rarely have "bad" dreams because I accept them as a puzzle even as I dream.
      "Sleeping on it" is a great way to help us work things out.
      Most of my settings are places from my childhood. I don't know if they are places that were imprinted on my brain while it was a clean slate or if those were the places that made me happy. School took up much of my early days and is the setting for a preponderance of the dreams that I remember. (Yes, it IS difficult to discuss those that I don't remember:-)
      Certainly I cannot talk for others who recall dreams. I'd like to know more about your experiences...

    Hi Susan... I'm baaack. When I attempted to change my email address on Plinky, even though I clicked on the save button, I have never again been able to access my plinky account. After numerous attempts at getting someone at plinky to help me, and about a month or so without being able to get any response, I decided to open a new plinky account. Now, hopefully, I will be able to reconnect with all the people who I followed and those who followed me.
