3 Down, 10 Up

DREAM that I had to go down 3 floors in the elevator, below ground, then come up 10 floors. I thought to myself that it was redundant to do that, but did it anyway. Strangely, I did not feel coerced. It was as if I did not have control over it, that I didn’t even have the concept of control.

DREAMWORK:

When I woke up from the dream, the first thing I wanted to know was, am I going up in the elevator now? Next was, does 3 floors mean 3 years, or what? But then I realized it doesn’t matter what the actual measure of time is, if that’s what it is. It matters that I understand and accept the process that is being shown to me in the dream, that I have to go underground, dig down into myself, for 3 counts, before I am ready to make my ascent. And even though my ego balked at the idea and thinks I can take the shortcut, as it is inclined to do, my being knows the wisdom of the process. I know now that I do not have control, and the acceptance of that gives me immediate relief and comfort, because I can see then that something greater than myself has the control, and I can just relax and let it take over. That, is trust, and that, is ALL I need.

I thank Life and Source deeply for the immense gift of this dream.
