In the last few weeks I've had two dreams with lots of snow in them. Snow that is thick, and clean and just in great abundance and goes on forever..its never snowing, the snow is already there. The first one had someone who was mostly gone in it. My mind was retching forth phantoms for no good reason.
I wrote a dream journal entry about it this time. There's not much reason to share it. It was a chase dream through a weird home and snow and whatnot was in
I had some thoughts about dreaming, though after I was finished writing it:
"Now, my final thought to all this is...would we dream as we do if our world wasn't the basis of symbolic representation? Everything means something, right? In our human intellect. What would dreams be like without language, symbolism, "intelligent thought"? What do other animals see in their dreams? I'm sure many of us have witnessed dogs whimper in their sleep and kick their legs. I guess we would dream the same - we just place meaning to the symbols we see afterwords, right? The more intelligent you are..the more you dream? Or no? Is it all just the minds consolidating of memory - no matter what your intellect or species? I mean, if you have a bigger brain, capable of more tasks and memory storage... I would imagine you would dream more or, your dreams would be more intense?"
Its almost the end of October - where has time been going..?
I need to do some sleuthing..
