Comment on Say Goodbye to Guilt #1 by Les Grodsky

Guilt can come from many sources. Guilt is destructive, whether it is good guilt or bad guilt. The feeling of guilt can harm you. If you are feeling guilty, you are in the area of selt-hate. You can change that by simply admitting that you made a mistake and that you did the best you could under those conditions at that time. There are people and institutions that will try to make you feel guilty for being human. Being human means that you are not perfect. Remember, you are not a perfect machine.

Wow, happy 25th! I guess that means it has been 25 years for erika and I aswell! I really hope you keep travelling and living in other parts of the world so that we can come and visit you where ever you guys end up! I love how you and mom are free to moving in the direction that God wants you to go (even if there is a little resistants at first) you always find a way to overcome it and dive fully into where ever you are.

What a great story. You have been to so many amazing places. From the sounds of the story, it sounds almost like you’re needing to leave Malaysia, but don’t want to. Is that right?

Hope you have another 25 years of great adventures!

Comment on Four Elements in Dream Analysis by Radical change

That was a really nice analysis of your dream. I am adding a few
of my own thoughts just to add to the momentum. As you probably
already know a house is a symbol of the self in a dream and in this
dream you start by leaving a friends house and then go back to your
own. You can assume, because the dream is so positive, that the
experience that you had in the friend’s house was positive. The
reason that it is in the dream is so that you see the relationship
between connecting with others and connecting with your own self.
Our goal in life is always to become like one soul in many bodies
so when you connect with another person, it is as the both of you
become one. It is not so much a loss of identity in the connecting
process, but that in a positive relationship the two positive energies
meet and combine and then create a third energy that makes the
connection more than the sum of the two individuals. This is what the
world doesn’t quite get yet and it certainly isn’t taught in schools.
The question that you are being asked in your life is this. How
can I get back to my Self? And the answer is that you learn the most
about your self and develop your self the most in relationships.
The whole metaphor of the dream is that you get back to your Self so
much faster when you are relating in a positive way to others.
So then the next question you can ask yourself is, “Why the
bicycle?” You can understand a bicycle by comparing it to other
means of transportation. There are two things that you get on a
bicycle that you wouldn’t get in a car or by foot. First of all you
don’t get the sensation of speed in a car or by foot like you do on a
bicycle and secondly you need to have a great deal more inner control
when you are going at speed on a bike. The faster you go on a bike,
the more trust, calm, and ability you need to have in order to make it
to the bottom.
So you can say that the dream is trying to show you how to get to
your own true self by trusting in your ability to have positive
relationships with others. The more positive relationships you have
that faster you will get to yourself.
One last thing about a bicycle is that it is operated through your
own power as opposed to a car which has an external source. This is
to show you that it is through your own power that you develop, not
through someone else’s.

Thanks for sharing this dream.

Hi Dick,
thanks for this post! Very interesting and helpful. I had a dream last night – I was leaving a friends house and got on a bicycle to ride home. I was at the top of a big hill and the bike started coasting down the hill (no cars, only a few other bicycles), picking up speed. I just sat back and was calm and wasn’t afraid, even though it was going faster and faster, and cars could have cut me off from the cross streets. I passed some other bicyclists who were holding on to their handlebars, but I wasn’t afraid of hitting them. Eventually the slope decreased and the bicycle naturally slowed down on its own.
It made me think about the momentum my life has right now and about continuing to move forwards in all areas without fear – if I stay calm and trust, I will move forward naturally and easily.
