Sometimes I think dreams are what keeps us sane, because they make us realize that we're not that limited, even if the space of the dream world may feel limited per se sometimes. Living in a box makes us go insane because we know our soul's breathing only works outside of the cage. So dreams - which can fill us with hope and fear - above all else they make our lives so much bigger - endless. It can seem it's our own divinity we connect to when our bodies are resting, allowing us to travel to a space where anything is possible. Meanwhile our waking hours may not be as encouraging and spacious. But with the possibilities that dreams give us, every night we have an opportunity to fuel ourselves with the type of energy we need for the coming day.
A couple of weeks back I dreamt that I was standing on a staircase looking up at the night sky. In the sky there was a giant whale swimming around as if it was the ocean, and its outlines were glowing like starlight (very similar to the picture above). It was quite the image, and that image gives me courage still, and comforts me on dark days when hope is scarce and fear is present. I don't know what that whale was or what the dream meant but it made me feel loved and looked after. Dreams about whales seems to be reoccurring for me lately.
