Friday Five: Dreams

Todays' Friday Five asks us to share about the many different dreams and visions in our lives.

1. Do you tend to daydream?
Hmm... I guess I would say that when I have the luxury of time on my hands (which is not often enough) I do like to do a bit of day dreaming.

2. Do you usually remember your night dreams? Do you find them symbolic and meaningful or just quirky?
I wish I remembered my dreams more often. I have a tendency to think that one can find symbolism in all 'quirky' dreams and derive some sort of meaning from them.

3. Have you ever had a life changing dream which you'll never forget?
I have a couple of dreams I'll never forget (which involve people who have passed away), but I wouldn't say they were life changing.

4. Share a long term dream for one or more aspects of your life and work.
This is superficial, but I have had a dream to convert our dining room into a 'relaxing room' (the dining room just doesn't get used that often and is a waste of space) and I hope that will happen this year.

5. Share a dream for 2010.
I just got Gore's new book, Our Choice: A Plan to Solve the Climate Crisis. Helping the planet is definitely a dream/goal for me.


Bonus: a poem, song, artwork, etc. that deals with dreams in general or one of your dreams
I have no idea what the lyrics mean, but the title fits and I like this Supertramp song:

woo, I'd forgotten about Supertramp- hope you get that dining room sorted, these things can be freeing, and aren't always superficial!

Mary Beth said...

Nice! And I LOVE Supertramp.

Terri said...

I like that idea/dream for your dining room transformation...

Yes on the dining room in transition to more useful and relaxing space!

Blessings on your new room of relaxation and the journey to achieve it.

my goodness a "relaxing room"... how does one furnish a relaxing room? sounds cool though... like a mini-spa, right there in your home!

How nice to have dreams of those who have died. I always wanted to have dreams of my mother, but since she died in 1992, never have.

Hmmm, a relaxing room. Hope that dream comes true! Praying for that and all kinds of blessings in the coming year.
