I'm not sure how I can feel as though I have been so busy, when I have gotten so little done! But I am trying to manage the business things, the house, the garden, the sick dog...and all while I am trying not to get too much exercise cuz I am trying to baby my lungs. Ah well...
The day was absolutely gorgeous, as was yesterday, and I could NOT go out walking...wah!!! I am still feeling it in my chest and so I am putting off any real exercise just trying to get them back to normal. I did do a little light (emphasis on the light) yardwork. The front garden is gorgeous but the back...ach...really needs weeding and replanting and EVERYTHING!
I have been spending most of my free time reading (instead of say, blogging)...I have to read The Kite Runner for my book group. I am reading all sorts of metaphysical books and listening to Hayhouse Radio (and am actually meditating every day). I have since been having very strange and powerful dreams. I have these dreams and then there is this 'voice' that helps me to interpret them. Okay, how weird is this?
Here's the deal...I have been writing down and trying to interpret my dreams on and off for the past couple of years. I am actually pretty good at doing this...getting the symbolism, etc. I have gotten into the pattern of being sort of half-awake and going over the dream in my mind and actually re-dreaming it, all the while hearing myself interpret what is going on. But for the past week or so, this voice has been telling me what they mean. This is different from what happened before in that before I knew it was me talking to me...I would use the 'I' word. But this voice says things like, "you need to be careful about..."
I think this is cool, not scary...and I don't think I am moving to 'Crazy-land' or anything. This just makes me want to delve further into my spiritual system et al...hence, the constant reading and thinking...
I find the busiest days are often the least productive. It's the slow, long-focus ones that accomplish the most. One of those mysteries of life, I guess.

I ADORE the floral leaf around the cows neck on the Taurus header! I have Kite Runner in my line up to read soon - let me know how it is.

P.S.:
And you have been a busy bee, even if you don't hink you have accomplished much but you have! You were busy dreaming and thinking and analysing and reading and having ideas and so on. That is a whole lot of busyness for sure!

Hmmm, how fascinating, Diane. That sounds wonderful and not strange at all actually. I wonder what else this little voice is telling you...
How wonderful that you are so in touch with your inner self. :-)
I'm sending lots of **sparkles* to you for your dreams!!

Reading and nice weather are much more enticing than sitting in front of the computer!
