It's better in sleep
even nightmares are better
than the lies we live

Wow, you are developing beautifully your favorite theme ..... it's better yes because at least during sleep we are passive observers, during wake we are called to action ... nightly dreams reflect what we endure during the days ... they are better, I think, because if we behold the message we can learn something.
Now I go for a walk, here it's Sunday morning.
Happy dreams for you.
Love, Margherita

Intellectually I know that Canada is no better than any other country. Emotionally I KNOW that Canada is the best country in the world!

Aenimal....

Wish I could write with so few words and say something equally profound.  I must try sometime to still my mind into one voice, one song.

yes...i could rant on about the lies, and all that goes unsaid, but i wont. because u make me feel better, cos what you wrote makes perfect sense. sad but true. Have u heard the beatles song, I'm only sleeping. ? always makes me smile. I'd rather sleep too. Then again, i'd rather sleep than do a lot of things.

as usual, i've missed you.

thanks for reading me mind friend, once again.

love gemma xxx
