fly me...

 "I've just closed my eyes again
Climbed aboard the dream weaver train
Driver take away my worries of today
And leave tomorrow behind"...

"Fly me high through the starry skies
Maybe to an astral plane
Cross the highways of fantasy
Help me to forget today's pain"

in dreams...

In dreams begins responsibility.

the holding of dreams...

dreams do not vanish

as long as...you...

do not abandon them

the dream arises...

...in dreams we put on
the likeness of that
more universal, truer,
more eternal man
dwelling in the darkness of primordial night.
There he is still the whole,
and the whole is in him,
indistinguishable from nature and bare
of all egohood.
It is from these
all-uniting depths that
the dream arises,
be it never so childish,
grotesque, and immoral.

climbing the mountain...

So many of our dreams

at first seem impossible, 

then they seem improbable, 

and then when 

we summon the will, 

they soon become 

inevitable.

the others...

There are some people

who live in a dream world,

and there are some who face reality;

and then there are those

who turn one into the other.

the leap of possibilities...

Without leaps

of imagination,

or dreaming, 

we lose the 

excitement 

of possibilities. 

Dreaming, 

after all, 

is a form 

of planning.

the dreamer's punishment...

a dreamer

is one

who can 

only find 

his way 

by moonlight

and his 

punishment

is that he sees

the dawn before

the rest of the world

SOS for saint bernards

yesterday

storm's beginning

 
UPDATE - SNOW PLOW CAME THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON - ONE SWIFT SWOOP - AT LEAST ABLE TO LEAVE DRIVE - CAREFULLY - MAYBE TOMORROW ;)

just to let you all know i've not been away by choice at all - we are in the midst of a huge blizzard with more than 2-1/2 feet of snow out our front door - a lot of people are without power but ours has remained on for which i am so grateful - however, have had no cable or internet or land phones until about an hour ago [since friday] - entire state shut down basically - we have managed to clear the drive to the street but the street remains under all the snow as state and private plows all under emergency use for keeping main roads open - no private developments/neighborhoods have been plowed yet and no one knows when they will be - good news is that sun was out all day yesterday and is out today - beautiful - bad news is that another foot or more of snow expected to hit tomorrow into all day wednesday in this area all the way over to dc and into pennsylvania, etc - oh, and other bad news - now running out of basic necessity kinds of supplies -

please send saint bernards - chocolate, fresh fruit and wine appreciated!   

our present - our dream...

It is by 

no means 

an irrational fancy

that, in a 

future existence, 

we shall

look upon 

what we think 

our 

present

existence, 

as a dream.

hold onto your dreams...

do not lose hold

of your dreams...

for if you do, 

you may still exist

but you have 

ceased to live

the dream...

THE DREAM

pablo picasso

such a beautiful woman in what seems to be a soft pleasant dream - depicted in wonderful brilliant colors - but of what does she dream - of who does she dream - and where has she fallen asleep while sitting upright - all unanswered questions -

what do you think?
