It came to mind that when Dan & I first began our communications, I studied "lucid dreaming". My first experience of this was a dream where it was kinda fuzzy at first beginning with images of "work stations" where I was being accused of having an affair. From there it lead outside, and I could clearly see that I was watching myself dreaming. It was a very long time ago, back when there were horses and lots of open land. The house was very old. The trees were very tall, very spooky looking. It was nighttime. I stood as I watched myself being dragged around the open dirt yard surrounding the house. I was attached to a horse by a rope. I still see "this image" as I am telling the story here. Yet, I also remember telling it to Dan, right after it happened. The thing that I most remember is that "knowing" it was a dream, it was not real; therefore, I did not feel the pain as I watched.
Dreaming made me think about what hangs over my head as I sleep. Above me to the left is the latch hook I started in 1990 when my father was diagnosed with cancer. I completed it in 1991, the week he died.
The dream catcher was given to me as a Christmas gift in 1995, right after my brother died. I had given my nephew and niece dreamcatchers for Christmas gifts that year also. This was when my brother had died 2 days before Christmas and the gift he had already left me laying under my tree was a box of notecards with "cherubs" on them.
