Dreams

My headache knocked me out yesterday. By 4 I was exhausted and fell asleep just as the Bucks stood up the Magic on the courts. I woke up at midnight, thinking it was early morning, and read for an hour or two, falling asleep again and having intense dreams about living with crowds of people I didn't know, loss and malfunction of communication devices, missed appointments and interviews. It was harrowing. 

These are tumultuous times, not just in my subconscious but in every aspect of daily life. The uncertainty and unrest are unsettling; stretched into a new normal, these conditions leave me feeling quiet and hopeful -- nightmares aside -- that we can find a new Way through together.
