I’ve been thinking lately that night dreams are my final frontier in consciousness. They fascinate me and I wonder if they might be a link for us between the physical world and the non-physical, Spirit world. Or as Susie called it in The Lovely Bones, the Inbetween.
I dream every night vividly. Last night before I [...]
