But I could not get my mail to go to Ellen Perlman with the addresses I had from the header. (Besides, it's not like we've had a lot of traffic in this newsgroup lately :-) -------------------------------------------------------------------- Ellen, Thank you for your mail on dreams--it helped. I will look in the library for the book you mentioned. Have found it on some book order forms. That was just the sort of information I was looking for. There are so many dream books out there--but so many are just lists of meanings (none of which are applicable, since it is so individual) or, as you mention, Freudian. I read a little Freud when young, and found him pretty much of a misogynist and often downright silly! I have started to write down my dreams. My only problem now is saying to myself "Oh, I don't want to write it now--I'll remember it later." I never do, of course. Or I don't want to maybe bother my husband. (Which is no excuse--he sleeps like a log, and isn't bothered by light.) It is fun to go back and read them after a month, when I have forgotten them totally. One thing I can see that I should do is to also--perhaps the next day--write down external factors that might have contributed to the dream. For instance, I had one about work. When I go back to read it, it might be nice to know if I was having a particularly bad week at the time. The dream sure sounds like it! But if I wasn't, then maybe there are some general negative feelings there. Anyway, thanks for the help. Take care. -- Sue Brezden Real World: Room 1B17 Net World: ihnp4!drutx!slb AT&T Information Systems 11900 North Pecos Westminster, Co. 80234 (303)538-3829 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Your god may be dead, but mine aren't. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
