dripping wet..and apparently determined to do this... listening to something letting off steam apparently... it's a great gurgling noise..

earlier today dozed off i'd been threatening to do it without actually achieving this and so when one wakes suddenly out of a dream.... and well oh no been asleep ... guess i am still in that drowsy state hours later you know that drowsiness of early morning just 5 minutes more... it's quite pleasant really

some time ago:....  one knows one is thought of as a holy person when somebody asks one to interpret their dream..  oh no! i protest complete ignorance on the matter as well as a primal uneasiness... we have recently both been treated to the story of Joseph and his apparent prophetic success in the matter ... hallmark of his prophetic gifting and special GOD LOVED GOD CHOSEN status... and now i am being asked if i will do the honours... i have a suspicion that i am going to have to listen to this dream no matter what...  but gives me a platform to express and explain my complete reluctance in the matter .. well ... me well after listening to two of the more spiritually thought of people attempt uninvited to interpret a dream i once had with such unlikely conclusions and afterall it was my dream and i knew exactly what it meant i had just explained it they weren't interested in my explanation they weren't even listening ... i later get asked if i have asked soandso who has a reputation for interpreting dreams.... i have just told them i understand my dream .... so whywouldi? add to their er interferences? ....and privately am thinking ..i would be rather reluctant to approach soandso on any matter Spiritual ....  and maybe i have the kind of bias from my background that renders me perfectly suspicious of the universal declaration of interpretation of dreams that some people believe is out there courtesy of some of the readers of Messrs Freud, Jung et al... me i rather like the alternative idea that one is best placed to interpret describe one's own dream... besides does not something get lost in translation in the telling?... so is not one rather dependent on the telling... well Holy Spirit interpretation by Divine appointments surely is something worth having.. look at Joseph look at Daniel... ok so where is Jesus on this? me like i say i is reluctant but i gets told the dream anyway.... i feel my eyebrows reaching the clouds... i turn to my companion and say er this is a Holy Spirit dream? they look at me and try to impress on me that this felt very real and made an impression on them... i go through the routine of explaining all the above ... they say maybe i'll ask soandso... cool! say i deadpan.... and thankfully the subject moves on.... some time later they tell me they have approached soandso and so i am curious.... soandso's response suggests a similar not quite getting this dream as a prophetic masterpiece either...

well my dream earlier today was certainly one of the Spiritual dreams i have had ... curiously it involves folks from my churches past and present ... apparently we have a joint service of sorts and guess what.... me i manage to miss it all.... but have curious interactions with folks from my old church as well as my new one... me i seem to be in a bit of a Spiritual wilderness at least as far as the folks of the respective churches are concerned.... then.... i find myself in this very curious place... of a recurring dream! i am trying to get from A to B and it seems to require crossing of a river where there are bridges but the route from A where i am and B where i am apparently trying to get to is not that straight forward....and i am remembering the last time i was in this position..... and the journey is even more complicated somehow.... there is something very similar about this position but somehow my geographical starting place is altered my destination is unknown.... it is a city like or is London  .... what is it i am following where is it i am trying to get to why such a big city? why is the journey so hard and why am i already deflated? looking for Jesus looking for something somewhere on my own trying to absorb the landscape...oh Dear Lord!

GOD BLESS!

Peace and Love,
