Our
Dreamer Writes:
Dear
SMYD,
I’ve been
widowed a number of years now. I had a
wonderful marriage and I’ve missed my husband so much. At the same time, I’ve continued an active
and stimulating life alone. Recently,
for the first time, I found myself very attracted to a ruggedly handsome man I
met in professional setting. Then I had
this dream!
I don’t remember
all the details, but here goes: I was in an office with a young woman. I can't describe her. I just get the feeling she was younger than
me and we needed to go somewhere. A man
(can't describe him either!) offered to give us a ride in a Jeep.
We drove
a very short distance and came to a very wide creek. There was frozen ice on top of the creek, and
there was snow on top of the ice. I was
apprehensive and said that we couldn't go this way. But the man said we would drive into the creek
and go under the ice and come out on the other side!
Then he
drove the Jeep into the creek and we became stuck under the ice. The man died. The next thing I remember I was out of the
jeep and in the water. My face felt cold
and I could feel the ice over my head. I
felt trapped under the ice and I couldn't get out. Finally at the bank, I managed to work my
fingers through the ice where it was thinner. I banged it with my hand and it gave way. The young woman and I managed to break through
the ice with our bodies and emerge from the creek.
That is my
scary dream! What do you think of it?
Signed,
Still
Alive
Dear Alive,
You
mention an interest sparked and a stirring of feelings that have been “on ice”
since your husband’s passing.
Your
dream suggests you're approaching a threshold in this regard, depicted by that
icy creek. You’ve kept your emotions in
check, and perhaps now feel trapped by the cool exterior you’ve practiced for
so long. In your dream you said, “We
needed to go somewhere,” suggesting you need to cross this barrier to
reactivate that dormant part of your life.
The transition requires that you take up a younger state of mind
represented by the young woman traveling with you.
On first
consideration, you don't think it's possible or likely that you'll be
successful making the transition through the icy waters. In spite of your hesitance, the man in the
Jeep, a rugged and sporty vehicle (perhaps your attractive new acquaintance),
says, in effect, “We’ll just take the plunge.”
His strategy did not pay off for him!
And it's a scary struggle for you to make the crossing. But take heart, Dear Dreamer! You break through the ice and come out on the
other side with that younger woman and state of mind.
Best
Wishes and Sweet Dreams to You!
SMYD
Hello mates, good piece of writing and good urging commented at this place, I am
ReplyDeletegenuinely enjoying by these.
Feel free to visit my blog quantrim facts
I was recommended this web site by my cousin. I'm not sure whether this post is written by him as no one else know such detailed about my trouble. You are wonderful! Thanks!

I think that what you posted made a lot of sense. However, think
ReplyDeleteabout this, what if you composed a catchier post title?
I ain't saying your information is not solid., but what if you added something that makes people want more? I mean "Cross the threshold to your new life!" is kinda boring. You ought to peek at Yahoo's front page and
see how they create post titles to get viewers to click.
You might add a video or a pic or two to grab readers
interested about what you've got to say. In my opinion, it could make your blog a little livelier.

bit, but other than that, this is wonderful blog. A great
read. I will certainly be back.
