Over the week end l watched a movie (a hired dVd) called "the PURSUIT of HAPPYNESS" with Will Smith and his son Jaden... It was an amazing story and even more so for the fact that it was based on a true story... about a man trying to find his 'doorway' to a better life for himself and his young son...
...and then that same night l had a dream...
I dreamed that l had the lead in a play and even though it was a lead part, it wasn't a "big" part... (That is l didn't have tOO many lines)...
Anyway ...so there l was on stage and when the time came for me to speak...
l realized that l didn't know my lines! ...I tried reaching into the depths of my memory... but 'nothing'... the words just weren't there!
...And as l stood under the spotlight sweating, l realized suddenly that they probably nEvEr were 'there'...and I knew that l had left it tOO late ...and that l had not even prepared or learned any of my lines at all ...and l was about to let the whole cast dOwN!
...So l did the only thing any 'good actress' could and faked sudden illness and fled the stage...
BUT the cast knew the truth, just as much as l knew that they knew ...And they hated me for lying... almost as much as l hated myself...
And then l found myself in a hotel (Where l have found myself before in dReAmS) and l was lost there... again... in a long hotel corridor full of lots 'n lots of dOOrs...
...As a young person l often felt as though l were playing the 'part' in a play that l didn't know the lines for... It felt sometimes as if l didn't even know the language of the 'cast' around me... and this made me feel 'lost' in a way that l could never put into words... although l tried...
...and l was always on the lookOUT for new dOOrWays...

Hi there -- Thanks for stopping by my blog! Isn't it exciting to get new commenters? Or any at all, lol...
Yes I'd be THRILLED beyond thrilled if you linked my blog. I keep three of them, though I don't know if it's apparent. So whether it's to my profile which will show all three or just to Adventures in Nature, thank you so much!
Did you happen to see the little video of the little girl squirrel? I still find myself watching it every other day. If you're feeling blue it will cheer you up in a millisecond.

Oh Nanakin my pleasure X:-) I hope you had a wonderful day xox
If I try and act how I think I am 'supposed to' I seldom have a clue. I don't seem to know social rules. When I act like me, people are surprised sometimes but I don't seem to offend anyone too much.
That was me relating to your 'not knowing your lines' dream.
My anxiety dreams are usually about losing my purse.
Lol! Oh DeeDee you are sooo cute! *hugs*
Vicki,
do I ever know that feeling of what you described ... not knowing the lines around people who seem like strangers.
I think as we grow, we try to start surrounding ourselves with people where the lines come to us natrurally! For example, a friend like you!
Thanks for that Carla my fRiEnD X:-) Very true too XoX
