I will wake up and feel totally exhausted from struggling with something in my dreams. I hardly ever remember what it was that was so upsetting, either. I guess not everyone has pleasant dreams. I would love to see Mom and Dad, though.Norma Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16012021195725446402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-51806558050873524502010-05-18T18:54:34.346-07:002010-05-18T18:54:34.346-07:00I often read that if you have a very vivid, colorf...I often read that if you have a very vivid, colorful dream and a presence after a dream it is actually a visit from them from the other side..<br />isn't that a wonderful concept?

When Dad passed away, I am waiting for him to be in my dreams but until now, he is a no show.

I enjoy these dreams and when I am with my mom we speak French in my dream.

I think dreams are a way to sort through memories, sort of like going through an old photo album.<br /><br />You asked how long I have been a shutter bug. I got my first SLR in the late seventies. For a long time I had two of them, one loaded with color slide film the other with B/W. I put together a lot of slide shows for my work. It was a very expensive hobby back then and I let it go for awhile. <br /><br />I got back into photography when I started my blogs last year. I have older photos from another digital camera and some that I have scanned but they are all in one file that was transferred from an older computer. The photos in my post really are from the eighth folder.SquirrelQueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00634513897599275287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-66514249015210851332010-05-18T12:34:16.572-07:002010-05-18T12:34:16.572-07:00I really do think they have come to visit when thi...I really do think they have come to visit when this happens to me.Entre Noushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00186796216462041421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-41630801521906934082010-05-18T12:32:06.187-07:002010-05-18T12:32:06.187-07:00I love dreams that make you feel all warm and fuzz...I love dreams that make you feel all warm and fuzzy..I have them sometimes..it is always the same, all my old dogs come to visit..young and healthy and wanting some lovin'..I hate the waking up part.

I have a few dreams that stay with me forever and I think they keep us tied, in some inexplicable way that is VERY real, to those we have lost. So glad you got to have a visit, as it were. Revel in the warmth and love and thanks for being willing to share it.

Obviously we can't visit them in our corporeal form so our souls take flight after we go to sleep.
