Vivid Dreams

I remembered 3 extremely vivd dreams from last night. They pierced so deep into my mind, I went to google it as I woke up, to try figure out the possible meanings and symbols in them.

**
The first most important of all, and the clearest. Was that I was at the wake of my Dad. I didn't cry, wasn't sad at all. That frightened me a lot and from time to time I questioned and asked myself how is it I am not crying. I love my dad and respected him for having gone through many very hard times in life. We barely have conflicts at home and I didn't understand my dream at all.

"Death or dying in a dream seldom refers to an actual death. Death refers to changes in one's life, or attitudes toward certain persons, or fears of dying. Here are some possibilities of what death, dying or a dead person may represent in a dream. Death is a motif and may be the central motif of the dream.

(3) If the dead person in the dream is actually a living person - and especially if that person is your partner or parent or sibling - the dream may be expressing unconscious resentment towards that person, or a desire to be indepentent of that person. Feelings toward someone close are often ambivalent (conflicting): love or respect mixed with fear or hatred or resentment or jealousy."

So I read on. Perhaps it was the desired to be independent.

The 2nd dream was a revisit Lithuania, to a party at Ignas' home. I remember I brought a friend and was running up the back stairway. Looked alittle different but I knew in my head it was the right place. The door opened and I saw Iggy, and egle, and the usual crowded house party. Lot's of alcohol on the table. I said to Iggy, "Do you know which drink I missed most?" He said, "Starka, Vodka..." I smiled, and poured out the next drink, "Yes.. Starka and Cranberry Vodka!" I asked Egle, "Where's Agne?" And we waited while talking to all the people in the house...

Indeed I missed the Starka. But I missed more the friends and the fact that I was away from home in Lithuania. It perhaps an added tinge of freedom which made the Starka sweeter in Lithuania.

**
I also remembered briefly, a call from an ex-colleague, whom I've called to meet again this coming Monday. I was to present the opportunity to him to consider an investment. In the call, he was enthusiastic and excited.

In reality, I've called him, and it took me some time to persuade him about the opportunity. And well he wasn't all that enthusiastic, and I dunno if tomorrow he will actually meet me. For this, I think was to do with my perspectives about my latest career move.

**
The company I work for is a land asset management company. Through a non-speculative physical asset, Land, as our investment vehicle, we offer money making opportunities for individuals, ie. investments. I'd like to think of it as something everybody should be excited about, that most individuals should really want to know how they can make more money, besides working their asses off like "peasants" - Quoting Irving.

Sometimes people complain about their work - overworked, under paid. Yet when the option comes to their doorstep, they push it away in fear and sceptism. Aren't you just fufilling your own prophecy, of the viscous working cycle you can't seem to get out of?

**Knock knock... Don't be afraid...
