Loving the Storms

During a dream this morning I got to feel what it was like to want new shoes so badly for my new Qigong practice that, while in the backseat of a pickup, said, "Okay, good luck", and started the truck up and there I went. The road was kind of dark and I sat there admiring my shoes before I realized that no one was driving the truck. I looked in the bed of the truck and that woman was still looking through shoes. But in front of me the truck was moving forward and staying right in the middle of the road. When the thought occurred to me that on coming traffic might occur I began to panic and new that I needed to get in that front seat. But my shoes were tied together. I could not crawl over the seat. (Talk about being stuck) LOL...Dreams, they help us to learn so much about ourselves.

The next dream was about being in this big beautiful house right on the beach. My mother calls to ask me where I am and when I tell her I'm letting her know that when you open the back door you are right on the beach front and college students are everywhere.

I had two friends with me and both wanted a massage. The one guy said, "All I have to do is think of you and I relax." The other friend wouldn't even take off her clothes. But while I am massaging the friend that would not take off her clothes a huge storm has erupted. You can't see the shore any longer and the waves are crashing the telephone polls outside of this house. Suddenly the power goes out and I see a moving van outside the window.

The next thing I know I'm in a hotel with lots and lots of people and we are there for testing. WHAT? Test! So I'm kind of wondering how I got here and what was I going to be test on. So I'm calling from the hotel phone to ask for Dwayne. Well, this is a very special freaken phone. When you pick it up it only will request the person that is speaking into it. I thought it was a mistake at first but then my friend did it. It announced her, no one else.


Now on a side note, my cats have been very clingy lately. Like right now as I'm typing this one is at my feet and one is laying across my arms as I'm typing this out. They are quite happy in laying all over me these days with no concern because they have none. But I've been wondering why they've been this way. We found the first one October 15th of last year left by his momma to die. He still had fresh blood on him when he was found. My husband and brother-in-law were the ones to find him and had not fed him all day. So at 8pm I'm feeding this kitten. Of course I became Momma Cat. I say this because even within my dreams my cats were there with me.

I don't want to judge what they thought was right or wrong because I don't know what a cat thinks, but I do know that in the dream they only would go to the bathroom on one particular persons clothing or bedding. I would have to apologize because that has never happened before. But it was like my cats followed me every where in the dream, even through the storm.

I would have to say that cats have some form of power or ability to sense people. And because my cats are sooo loving, they pretty much treat everyone the same. At least in real life they do.

So getting back to the storm. When I look at a dream like this I look at my fears or feelings. Well oddly enough I was loving the storm. I wanted to be out in the middle of it. I wanted to watch it from all angles. I would have to say that I love test too. It seems like I put myself in situations were I'm always having to take a test.

I would like to say though, I'm feel that I am ready to enjoy the storms I've been through and enjoy the clear air, and fresh outlook. I think a storm is a way of cleansing. No matter if it's an emotional storm, relationship storm, business storm, or whatever it may be. It is cleansing!!! I love how storms clear the air. I love how the light shines in. I love the smell of a fresh new day.

I remember when Hurricane Hugo hit Charlotte, my mother woke me up and asked me how could I be sleeping right now. I told her it was okay that we were safe. So to prove my point I go out on the porch of our house and just listen to everything that's going on because we couldn't see a thing. It was right in the middle of the storm. And even though I couldn't see anything I said, "Wow this is fabulous, what a wonderful night". I meant that. My mom on the other hand was dragging me back into the house. And because she couldn't sleep the rest of us were awake, including my small children.

Now her reason for waking me up was to let me know what if a tree hit my roof and I died. HUM! What I have learned now is that is exactly what I was telling and continue to tell myself. I want to be awake to witness the death of my karma. I want to awake to be really awake. We don't have the power to decide when or where that will take place, but at least we can be awake when it happens.

So what does all this blah, blah mean? It means we are okay. That we might not be the driver of our own vehicle but that we are safe until we panic. That when a storm comes to continue to embrace what you love to do and that you're going to make it and pass your test. That when you call for help, that it's you that you are calling upon. YOU and GOD!

Belief statement: Finally Fluff moved when he heard a noise outside and this made me feel comfortable because he was laying right on my arms. I'm gaining having him come back again, while losing nothing this time because I'm comfortable.

Spirit statement: I move and hear sounds inside with comfort because I know my right arm is here in comfort.

There is a deeper message in that spirit statement. Those of you that would like to explore that I welcome you to discover, YOURSELF.
