Mernel – The whole theme of your dream is about your feelings about relating to classy men and how you appear – your clothes.
The message I get from it is that your feeling of not being as well dressed, as good as others, lacking sparkle, has coloured the way you see people’s opinion of you – and of course your opinion of yourself.
When I was much younger and an air man in the RAF, I was stationed in large fancy house and the sergeant in charge was a strange looking man, with a large slightly bulbous nose, not at all a film star looking guy. But frequently in the sergeant mess, a room securely locked, one could hear noises of a woman’s delight as he and she had sex. I realised then that it didn’t matter what you looked like or what you were dressed in – what counted was he was friendly and not stand offish.
Later still I learned that we are all born with an immense potential that often remains latent because of the condition of our body, our education, our prevalent social teachings, or our belief that what authority figures and parents say is taken as truth. We are all the miraculous creation on Life. We are all seeds of that Creative process.
The Tree
I can’t remember it not being there –
On the cliff edge overlooking the sea.
I don’t even know how old it is.
There’s no way of knowing.
Perhaps an ancient oak tree
Yet barely to my waist.
Shaped and stunted
By harsh onshore winds,
By the salt and the rock.
It is clinging and growing
To the very shape of the wind,
Perfectly reflecting its environment,
And stunted, as you or I might be,
By circumstances of our birth,
Or events -
Yet still a magnificent oak tree.
Just as you or I, at our core,
Are magnificent human beings.
