This gets reinforced when I try to put them into words after I wake up. The narrative that gets imposed is always cinematic. The bits of martyrdom and redemption are no doubt there because they are the overwhelming themes in American action and genre movies.Rob Helpy-Chalkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13814390262154687969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9102103.post-23036091109495123422010-01-07T21:47:10.903-05:002010-01-07T21:47:10.903-05:00My thoughts.

It's no doubt more a reflection of my psychology as I read the dream than an accurate interpretation of yours:<br /><br /><b>"Borrowed" train</b> -- you have transgressed. You are now unsure of how to deal with the consequences of your own wrongdoing.<br /><br /><b>Train returning to station</b> -- through no merit of your own, your dilemma is resolved. In short, you are saved through grace, through no means of your own, just as your despaired of ever resolving your problems through your own efforts.<br /><br /><b>I ♥ Bitch Ph. D. shirts men</b> -- persecutors, who not only do not hold your values, but who attempting to violently extirpate your values.<br /><br /><b>Acid spray</b> -- martyrdom; death at the hands of the persecutors.<br /><br /><b>White prism</b> -- escape from your torments: your body is disintegrated, yet, mysteriously, "a flash of light sends you into the sky." The afterlife?<br /><br /><b>Sheltering from acid and movie ending</b> -- okay, it was all fitting together as a hagiography until now. Now I'm not quite sure what's going on.Nordomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05462778715902299822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9102103.post-59575064801689979422010-01-07T11:43:26.283-05:002010-01-07T11:43:26.283-05:00Wow.

This was some sort of option, when you are pregnant, apparently. I mentioned the difficulty of the procedure of returning Toni to her stomach, and she and Meredith laughed at me and pointed out that of course the *doctors* were the ones who put Toni back in. We were in a tippy building, and looking for Bonnie's apartment. I was going to give her $3300 cash in exchange for her car. The end.Mollynoreply@blogger.com
