"We are afraid to care too much, for fear that the other person does not care at all."
Eleanor Roosevelt
On a flight, recently, I fell asleep. I had a pleasant dream, that quickly turned into something else. My sincere apologizes to the lady seated next to me (6B) on flight 5 of Alaska Airlines - for I woke up startled and tried my best to recover quickly.
What I find fascinating about dreams is how deeply we are allowed to reveal ourself to ourself, if we are open to in. In this dream I realized something about myself: I have come a long way, I have clean house pretty impressively, and I have placed some heavy locks on the door of that home. I have not yet decided if this a good thing or not - in the dream it was not. Maybe it was a question being asked? Maybe showing the outcome of not being more vulnerable to the universe?
Either way - what I choose to focus on is finding the courage to care, and then care more. I am terrified, but what is life without a little risk?
