My mother has bought me a Chloé Paddington and it should arrive next week, however, I think she wants to keep it for Xmas day for me. I am so lucky that it makes me blush.

Darling, I've been having dark dreams
They come home to haunt me
I can't seem to let them go
Darling, I've been having sad dreams
I don't know where I've been
But I know what I've come to
How about we play a game
I know you'll like it, oh
You stay as far as you can
Before they get to you
I may seem crazy but
It's only 'cause I am
Before they capture your mind
Run, run, run

In a world that exists only between sleeping and waking, there are creatures that wander where no human has ever dreamed of going.
They call this one the Dream Walker.
It travels silently across the pale and forgotten landscapes, its impossibly thin legs carrying a body made of flesh, bone, and things that have no name. Beneath its shell, strange spheres turn endlessly, collecting fragments of dreams left behind by those who have awakened.
No one knows where the Dream Walker comes from. Some say it was born from the first dream ever dreamed. Others believe it has been wandering for thousands of years, searching for a place that no longer exists.
Tonight, it has stopped.
Perhaps it has found what it was looking for.
Or perhaps, somewhere in the waking world, someone has just begun to dream.

I found this old cardboard house so incredible, a great inspiration for my miniature sets.

dream on 18 December 2010 - day 352
we do not always recognize our dreams.
Once upon a time there was a woman who longed to find out what heaven is like. She prayed constantly, "O God, gant me a vision of paradise." She prayed for years until one night she had a dream. In her dream an angel came and led her to heaven. They walked down a street in paradise until they came to an ordinary looking house. The angel, pointed toward the house saying "Go and look inside."
The woman looked and saw a person preparing supper, another reading the newspaper and children playing with their toys. She was disappointed and returned to the angel saying "is this all there is to heaven?"
The angel replied, "Those people you saw are not in paradise, paradise is in them!"

"Dream Catchers"
~As legend goes, the Dream Catcher is hung in the lodge near the sleeping area. Its purpose is to catch all dreams, good or bad. The bad dreams caught in the webbing would be burned off by the first morning light. The good dreams caught know their way to the hole in the center and filter down into the feathers. They are held there to be dreamed another night.~
I have many infatuations with dream catchers, native american beliefs, and dreaming in general. It all fascinates me with the way our mind works and produces these thoughts and images in our head while we sleep. This photo is meant to represent the dreams being caught by the multiple dream catchers (5 - i know they're difficult to see). The dreams are represented by the flowing smoke. I hope you enjoy. I've been thinking about doing this for a while and am very happy with the results. : )
There is no madness more delirious than dreaming...
~J. Allan Hobson, Professor of Psychiatry, Emeritus, Harvard Medical School.
Dreaming is madness of the mind. The mind, which behaves cohesively during our wakeful hours, throws caution to the wind when asleep and dreams. While dreaming, areas of the brain related to wakeful cognition and consciousness, like the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (decision making), the sensorimotor cortex (conceptualization), and the primary visual cortex (visual cue processing), are completely shut off. Instead, Parieto-Occipito-Temporal junction of the brain, an area that converts perceptions into abstract thoughts, mental imagery and memories, is turned on. Cut-off from primary sensory inputs during sleep, reality in the brain is re-painted during a dream; this time by an artist who is eccentric and psychotic. Think about any of your dreams and you will know what I am talking about.
Yet, this is only the beginning of ‘complications’. The subjective experience during the process of dreaming is as real as our wakeful reality. While dreaming, no one remembers they are not awake and the experience is responded to as if it is all ‘real’. Our dreams, despite being bizarre, make us smile, sweat, cry, hurt, panic, and get angry or aroused in a normal way. Thus, one could say that dreams are a complete state of consciousness in their own right.
Wait a minute! This moment I am absolutely conscious that I'm chasing a beautiful mermaid (who looks just about like you) on a purple beach of free flowing strawberry jelly where cheese sea-lions are singing ‘good morning beautiful, how was your night’ in a chorus; and the next moment, I am conscious that it is 6 AM, time to get up and make some strawberry jelly sandwiches for breakfast and get on with the day. How are these two states of consciousness valid in each other’s context? Although I felt similarly engaged with both, are they really the same ‘consciousness’? Perhaps not.
If not, my dear, how do I know, what I am subjectively experiencing right now in the dimple of your beautiful smile and the twinkle of those deep playful gorgeous eyes, is not just another dream?

Dreaming is still what is left. So lets dream and wish our dreams come true;) To all my Flickr friends;)) A better word, cleaner, more conscious, less violent.

Sticking with the dream theme...I always dreamed about playing guitar and singing like Joni Mitchell ...but:
1. I'm showing my age,
2. I sing like a howling dog, oh yeah, and
3. I can't play guitar
Update: Changed the crop.
Strobist Info: First guitar: natural light
Second guitar: SB-900 with blue gel (yes I'm lazy and didn't change it from yesterday's shoot) on floor stand sitting on stool lower left of guitar at 1/80 power . SB-700 thru white umbella right of guitar at 1/40 power.
I am thankful for the dreams-come-true that I am living today and I look forward to seeing how they develop over time. Balancing going with the flow with setting intentions is an art I am still working on. It could ... perhaps ... be my life purpose to work that out!

I think of you
as the dark side of the room;
as the plunge beyond a fall;
as the shadow upon the wall;
as the whisper from behind;
as the gaps within the mind;
as the place of the hole in my heart;
as the space which holds us apart;
I think of you
as the dark side of the room...
And when nighttime comes,
you nestle me in your womb.
Only then may I dream of you.
