The Right Ointment

"It has been said,'time heals all wounds.' I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens, But its never gone." - Rose Kennedy

Do wounds have to remain?

NO, you should find the RIGHT SALVE to HEAL IT,

     AND then the SCAB FALLS OFF,

            AND then YOU ARE WHOLE AGAIN.

Sometimes you just have to awake out of the illusion and stop hurting yourself...

any pain you make yourself feel is an illusion,

you have control over your thoughts, 

you can choose how you want to feel,

you can choose to stop sleeping the sleep of ignorance,

do you want to feel miserable?

if so then that is just pathetic!!!

You can choose to heal yourself,

have compassion and patience with yourself to do so!

any true Master has the ability to heal himself with the poison of his pain.

Let it Shine

Dream:

"I am looking for love: I have never met a guy who has actually liked me for me. So I'm going to tell you who I really am. I'm just trying to branch out and put myself out there for once."

My interpretation:

THIS IS HOW TO GET THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE

"LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE.
BE A SOURCE OF STRENGTH AND COURAGE.
SHARE YOUR WISDOM.
RADIATE YOUR LOVE."

(Wilfred Peterson)

Tears of Frustration

The Dream of a young woman:

                               (read it like a story if you want to learn something)

"It was the darkest dream I've ever had. We were sitting in a small town and my parents were talking to the family and usual stuff, so I had to go and walk from this boredom that kept me. While walking I heard strange singing in Arabic, and it was behind a small house. So I kept on walking and I tripped , as much as I remember, an old woman came for help and she was sooo darn ugly and the weird thing is that I couldn't take my eyes off of her. Then she helped me and she said that it was bad manners not to say thank you and that I wasn't raised well stuff like that. Then this  beautiful blondish woman came from nowhere and starting yelling at the old woman and she somehow weakened her because she fell to her knees and the blond kept on screaming at her. So the weird thing is, I found myself crying and crying and I couldn't stop it so the old woman was looking at me in this strange manner as if it was my fault... And I woke up.."

My interpretation of the Dream:

Coming from behind a house is like a song (or message) coming from your own backyard (soul, deep subconscious).

Maybe BOREDOM is making you act out all your frustrations in some violent way, such as screaming or bickering etc (the blonde girl also representing a deep aspect of your psyche)...but your frustration will make you "fall" (not in a bad or literal or negative sense) in good way you will eventually see that your "anger with your current situation in life" is meaningless, it would come to a halt upon this realization, where you come to a point of acceptance, making peace with it all, (that is currently vexing your soul)...

The old woman is you (that is why you couldn't take your eyes of her), or rather a wiser aspect of your personality...like a wise old gypsy...it represents your potential to acquire such wisdom for "acceptance"...to know that you can do nothing about certain circumstances and things, to just let it be, and make peace with it in the sense of making the best out of your situation no matter how your current life circumstances may feel grating at your soul, irritating you and causing you anxiety and illusional fears...when you see that it is unnecessary and unreal you can clear your mind and become more productive and focussed as you truly need to be to get done what needs to get done which is essential for your survival...to keep on going and to keep on moving without being hackneyed by distractions of petty value...sometimes things that mean nothing we give more importance to than they are really worth, sometimes to escape responsibilities and the discipline of focus by giving in to the destructive frustrations.

But any frustration is an illusion if you can do nothing about what caused it.

When you say that you were crying it means that you are crying out of frustration, but the realization lies in the tears - you can't do anything about it...and you know it, so drop it, release all the illusional frustrations because they can do nothing but hold you back...and as the "old woman" falls to her knees you repent, surrender to the Truth of it all...you can only blame yourself for your own confusion and feeling threatened by it all (as she looked at you like it is all your fault)...but it is all just a bloody illusion (dream as life is), so breathe, and open your mind to clarity and peace.

The old woman could be seen as ugly...because the Truth doesn't always wants to be seen as the wisdom (symbolized by old age) of simplicity (logic - the old woman, from young to old...how the seasons of life work).

..And then you said you "woke up" so let it be, amen to your impending Divine epiphany (Revelation).

And then the girl said:

"It's actually still confusing because last year I had the same dream but I saw the details of the place and scared me half to death." And I replied: "Maybe you are scared of acceptance...maybe that you are making it too dark a concept that is necessary...it isn't really that dark it just your fear that is so dark..that needs to be overcome so that light can rush into your mind."

Moral of the story:

I am going to stop being hard on myself and just accept things.  I know that I have been having much trouble in life over certain areas.  In truth, I am new at the game.  I do believe that we eventually change and that is why we should not quit.  The only sure way to lose is to quit.  Each of us has our mountains and valleys in life.  They come to us all.  We have seasons in our lives.  There is always something to learn and there is something to be gained in everything.  If you wish to be wise and knowledgeable in life, you are required to go through much.  You know everything from experience.  This comes from direct experience or indirect experience.  The things we learn for ourselves and the things that we learn from other people.  In other words, from either our own experiences or other people's experiences.

                                                            *** 

Acceptance of the ugly is embracing goodness...

Reason: Everything happens for a reason and we should rejoice when we make it through and realize the lesson and have learned from it. I am happy with the experiences I have had and sharing them to educate others.

Everything happens for a reason...sometimes people who have the worst experiences or hardest tests in life are those people who God has greater plans for...God tests you and uses you...God is always one step ahead of you! You should touch lives with your wisdom gained through good and bad experiences, and your ability to do so will be measured by your inner strength and faith in God...see when you fight and do not give in, you have successfully passed but one test of faith...there is much blessings to gain in life for a warrior of God!:

Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes...goes into strict training...Therefore I do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do not fight like a man beating the air. No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize. 1Cor 9:24-27

"Perseverance is not a long race; it is many short races one after another." Walter Elliott

Sometimes we look up and those short races have not only started without us, they are already ending!  we should always look up with faith...faith makes certain races shorter, even though hard lessons may be learned in that time feeling like eternity...

The Dragon Says: "HELLO, WAKE UP!!!"

A woman telling her dream to me:

(Read it like a story if you want to learn to learn something)

"I took a coach to work. (Never do in real life) I was doing a professional observation of a colleague carrying out their work. To my mind they were doing everything wrong and I thought it was absolutely awful! I decided to tell myself that people approached things in different ways but I still found it challenging watching them do their job so badly. I decided to leave the room and get some fresh air.

I went outside and it was raining. A puddle had formed at the top of the street on a bend in the road. Suddenly I saw movement and a crocodile in the puddle. For some reason I told myself it was normal for there to be crocodiles at that point in the road. Someone on the path ran down the road in the middle to avoid passing the crocodiles and one of them just stuck it's head out and gobbled him up!

I was shocked but even more so when I realized the size of the crocodiles they were like giant crocodiless. Soon I realized they were terrorizing everyone and the more the rain fell the more appeared. The road was in trouble so I knew it was too late to get coaches arranged but we needed to evacuate and get everyone home.

I had to go up the crocodile road on my way home. A group of us went up the road on the far side to avoid the crocodiles but I told them how they could still reach us as we went past. One of my colleagues ridiculed me and ran past only to be eaten. While the crocodiles was dealing with them the rest of us used the diversion to leap over a gap in the hedge and run to building. It turned out to be a stadium/restaurant owned by some Italian people. As we were standing there negotiating being let in, to my amazement I saw a string of dinosaur heads bobbing past the hedge along the road down the hill, all different types of dinosaur. I pointed them out and the man quickly let us in.

We watched through an upstairs window as a stream of dinosaurs marched down the road following each other towards town. We soon realized that we should leave as more and more were arriving and soon we'd never be able to escape. Everyone wanted to get back to their families.

The Italians knew of a gap further up in the hedge in their field. They took us to the spot and we decided we all had to run together. We ran together to the stile but as the first person got there and looked over, they shouted back that it was too late. They turned to run but got tossed in the air and gobbled up. We realized we should run the opposite way across the field. As we turned to run someone ran screaming. I was saying no sound but it was too late all the dinosaur heads turned and their eyes drank us in. 

An Ankylosaurus crashed through the hedge swinging its club tail and lowering it's head to butt someone away and their body just flew through the air. We ran faster and faster, some people ran along the hedge and I called to them to run diagonally across the field as they'd be caught too easily. As they tried to change direction a couple of T-Rex's popped up and I wished I was further to my left like the other people ahead of me. The T-Rex ran up to one of my ex-colleagues and bend down and grabbed her head in his mouth, her face was turned towards me and he kind of paused everything went into slow motion and I saw shock, confusion, fear and disbelief on her face and then he crunched right through her. I kept running a fast as I could but T-Rex's were popping up everywhere and I knew they'd smell me out if I hid in a hedge so I tried to get to the woods as quickly as I could. The next thing I knew I heard footsteps behind me. I never got to see which type of dinosaur it was as everything went black."

My interpretation:

Okay everyone in the dream represents and aspect of yourself, so the dream could convey that you are not happy about how you do your work, you know you can do it better, but for some reason you are reluctant to take better action, reasons such as insecurities, self-confidence, worries, anxiety, lack of self-belief, depression etc could be hindering you from doing a better job - you have the potential to be successful, you just don't want to use it.

The fact that there was so many crocodiles and people involved means that you are not the only one, or not alone in this whole ordeal (crisis)...many people have suffered this indecision before you, it is thus normal...but also you have the resources to overcome this...it may look terrifying now, but the terror will all go "black" if you make a choice to Face it for what it is...to face it head on (and) to overcome it...the fact that you are being chased means that it is catching up on you and the sooner you deal with it the better, or else it would overtake you and leave you overcome and dejected.

Reptiles and Dragons could symbolize dark forces of self - which could be destructive but also constructive if you have learned to tame your inner demons, using them to you advantage instead of your disadvantage - - learn from them, the dream is basically saying -DO NOT FEAR THEM AND DO NOT SEEK TO RUN AWAY EITHER, JUST DEAL WITH IT, and come out a better person!

Also the two dream symbols - "restaurant" and "stadium", could mean that you have to take a big look at yourself...focus all attention on you, and feed your soul with affirmations of self-assurance.

The road symbolizes your life path...and the crocodiles your obstacles...the rain could symbolize blinding your sight by your own devices.

Don't get eaten, when you need to be fed with motivation!!!

The coach is you traveling deep down into your subconscious to issues that need to be resolved ASAP!!!

(The woman thanked me saying it was dead on, and I replied: "No it is I that should thank you, many times other people's dreams carry meaningful messages to others." ...as that is after all how the creative force works - sometimes through others to you...)
