just as we all are gypsies of a sort in this life - in this world, so, too, we are in that other world - the dream world - the place where we are free to travel to places known or places unknown - free to travel far and wide - travel without fear - without trepidation - because just as we individually create our reality world, so do we each create our dream world -
Jung, on dreams, in his "ubergang":
a small hidden door to the most deep hidden and secret corners of the psyche, an entrance to the cosmic night, which was the psyche before there was any trace of an ‘ego’-consciousness:
and what will remain the psyche, no matter how far our ‘ego’-consciousness might stretch itself…
all consciousness acts to divide, but in our dreams we take the form of a more universal, true and eternal man who wanders through the darkness of the primal night.
There he is still the whole man, and this wholeness is in him, not distinguishable from nature and devoid of any ego-consciousness.
From this all unifying depth the dream arises; no matter how childish, grotesque or immoral the dream might be."

Beautiful words and Chagall painting.
Dreaming is wonderful and you can meet special people in your dreams... Family, friends, famous people and lovers!;)
Thank you for sharing your magical poetry and prose.

you're so right j - we can meet anyone and do anything in our dreams - but, then again, who is to say that our dreams are not our reality and our "reality" just a dream? we can have it both ways! thanks for coming by!
dreaming is something i so miss on this medication i need to take...i believe it possible to do almost anything in the dream state...wonderful painting, thanks much.

oh, gee, linda - that's too bad - i seem to have just the opposite reaction to certain medications - with some i dream much more vividly and intensely - and even the nature of my dreams seem to change - ie, nightmare sort - and yes, it truly is possible to do ANYthing in our dreams - ANYTHING at all! have a wonderful day!
Hey, I too believe in the dream walking. Chagall is one of my dreamy favorites... -J
