From my Dreams & Poetry blog post of today: an old photo, an old dream haiku with new comments, and fresh HAPPY NEW YEAR WISHES!

[dream haiku, written in January of 2008 (re-posted 12-31-19). Another from that stash of old dream haiku/monoku I am considering for re-posting. It hits me just now that it’s probably appropriate at year’s end to be going through the last of my three old, hand-written notebooks of dream haiku. As I’ve said here before, the books are truly old, some of the source dreams going back to the 1990’s and earlier. There’s always that looking back this time of year. But what I find interesting is that many of these old dream/poems were more predictive of my future than I recognized. Enough to give me goosebumps, every so often as I read. And I’ve been long accustomed to having the occasional “psychic” moment, sometimes in dreams. But it’s eerie to find them in retrospect. Yeah, yeah, yeah, this could simply be a matter of “self-fulfilling prophecy.” I.e., I may not have seen a particular dream as predictive at the time. But just the act of writing about it years ago, put the possibility of manifesting it in the back of my mind. I hasten to add, though, one could say that about anything we think/do/observe. All of life is deeply suggestive. Who’s really to know the source(s) of anything, ultimately? Maybe this is what is at the heart of that assertion that “Everything is one.” Just try to identify, much less untangle all the contributing causative events in which we're embedded. 😊 Anyway, back to today’s re-post: I think it’s a nice bit of positivity to end this year with. Which leads me to: HAPPY NEW YEAR, ONE & ALL! Photo “What Lies Beneath” (Archival Old Pix-2, 12718) by Roswila; BTW, this pic is of the guts of the only elevator we have on our retirement community grounds, given the heavy use it gets (as much for freight/furniture, etc. as people with walkers and shopping carts) it's amazing its motor has only been replaced once in the 12 years I've been living here)]
