Dream doesn't change going from asleep to awake

8:04 AM 6/13/05 - The unique thing about this dream was that it

did not end before I woke up, in fact waking up had very little

if any, effect on this dream at all. Also what happened in the dream

before it got to the point of offering to supply kids with a cup of

water who were thirsty was forgotten. After I either posted on the internet

that I would give thirsty kids water or told people in person, I

received two requests from the fire department in e-mail in the dream

to send some water. There were bottled water company links on the

e-mail, so I immediately thought to e-mail bottled water companies and

request free boxes of those little plastic bottles of water to give

away to kids in public I see that are thirsty. It was about then I woke

up, I know this because I put my arm above my head and its' cool this

morning in the Northwest here. I continued to mess with my e-mail

trying to word a letter and figure out how to send it while awake.

Probably the reason I had the dream is because I read in the bible

that a traveller given a cup of water in the name of Jesus is blessed

and I always offer anyone who comes over to my home something to

drink as soon as they arrive, although I don't usually say it is in

the name of Jesus or a prophet that I do so. I mean who wants to travel

to someones home, get there, and be asked a thousand questions to

answer while they still have a scratchy throat from a dusty journey.

I don't! I also usually leave a full papercup of water in my bathroom

for me, cause waking up is like a dusty journey through the common

consciousness of mankind and it reminds me water is good for you.

Water also represents love to me. As far as I'm concerned, dreams

about love can come from sleep to the awake state anytime, and I'm

going to carry new bottles of water around in my pack this summer and

give them to thirsty kids too, although I don't think the fire

department will have much to do with that. The fire department halloween

party I went to last year had a bunch of young kids at it and that's

where that part of the dream came from. Dreams are a collage of the past

directing us to the future. I may even e-mail bottled water companies

for free water to give to kids. LOL. Also another neat custom I

borrowed from the japanese is lighting a stick of incense before a

guest arrives to put the spirits in a restful mode. One thing for sure,

this dream didn't skip a beat from being asleep to being awake!!!!!
