When you take a moment to think about life, many of us will experience at least a moment of terror. We all know how fleeting life can be and how capricious all that can, and does affect us. Writers of movies and television make use of this fact and use inner insecurity to excite our imagination and curiosity. Having a close companion eases the natural anxiety associated with this part of everyday life.
How much time do I have to find a companion like that and develop trust and comfort with one another?
I dream a lot and remember most, some are very odd, but all have some connection to my reality. Therefore, I contemplate their meaning, if any.
The other thing that can enlighten me as to what my subconscious is working on are random flashbacks - not 1960s but everyday things from the past.
Here is an example: Often my friend and I would go fishing in the early morning to a tidal creek near where we lived. The air was still and misty. It was still cool. I have a vivid recollection of the water being moved by the tide, and it seemed all-powerful, and it kept going until the slack tide.
There are many stories connected with that location, including an amazing history, but the image of that clear water moving past me in the cool morning air somehow stands out. Modified pixabay images:
