crazy dream.
had a crazy dream, it went like this......
I was walking in the woods with my dog. A small dog......a smart well-behaved border collie in shades of brown......as the sun went down the dog's coat began to get lighter and lighter........a very bright shiny pure white coat that glistened ---- glowed in the dusk.
A tiny man with elfin features jumped out from behind a tree......he began throwing small red rocks at my dog. Fortunately his aim was impaired, but this only ramped up the number of small round red rocks being volleyed at my gleaming glowing pup. The dog did his best to avoid being hit. I was angry and scared.....but anger won, how dare this person try to hurt my dog.
Little elfin man had no care or conscience at all......he wanted the dog's pelt at any cost. These pelts so ordinary by day and so extraordinary by night are highly prized by people in other lands.......he tried to grab the leash from my hand but I was quicker than he..........he whistled for more to come aid him in stealing my dog and then i woke up.
The park was lit by stars so low that one could touch them, but not get burnt by their fire. It had many hills and rocks.....many trees. Everything was soft, lush and beautiful. So many hiding places amidst the small foot bridges and walking trails. It was a very beautiful place........I don't know what this means or why I dreamt this........dreams are so strange.
I ate around 11 and slept until the sun was going down, had the worst headache and couldn't keep my eyelids up.........so sleep is a good way to go. I keep wondering why this kitty owner dreamed about a small white dog........and a funny elfin man. Pointy ears, sharp chin, Peter Pan hair and clothing.......altogether odd.
The nice part????? I was able to go for a long walk in a beautiful place. Keep up with an active healthy dog and fight off a foe...........for a girl with health problems it is fun to be in on an adventure and do so well. So often i dream in story format, wonder about that........it really does feel more like being handed a story than seeking solutions via symbolism to me......but what do i know, i've always had bizarre dreams.......and my children do too.........say that is how they know they are definitely their mother's children. nite now.

Ruthie I\'ve often thought you should write children\'s books. Your journals are always so colorful. You bring your stories alive. Many times I feel like I\'m right there sitting beside you. :) Love & hugs xo
Your dream sort of makes me think of \"The Wizzard of Oz\"...have you watched it lately? Dreams are so wierd! Some of my medications have caused me to have horrific dreams, to the point where I won\'t take the meds anymore. At any rate...this seems to be an ok dream, you had an adventure!! We don\'t get to have many adventures, do we??
This was good!
As of your last comment, you are going nite nite.....maybe you\'ll have another dream you can tell us about! We love hearing your stories....and your real life experiences...they are like dreams when we\'re reading...so nice!!!!
Nite nite now, Sparrow!!
I\'ve wanted to write and design children\'s books for a long time. Hmmmm. Hard market to break into, so flooded right now, but when I think of it, it is always as a collaboration with a friend. I think my talents are the design layout (I am a graphic designer) and the artwork, but the stories ... I have a little trouble with that. Maybe God is trying to tell us something? Haha
YOU have the stories!!!!!! Sometimes I think it would be fun just to make one just for the sheer act of it, even if no publisher picks it up. Then we could give copies to our friends n family...
