What are dreams?  

According to Shakespeare, they are the very stuff we are made of. To Joseph Campbell, a dream is a personalized myth—and a myth a depersonalized dream. Both communicate in the same way, through a story, through imagery, which some may deem as the realm of pure fantasy but which is, in fact, more real and truer than true than many may care to admit. However, dreams and myths are not literal—and in a time when people are literally obsessed with literalism, it’s only too easy to shrug them off as meaningless junk. It’s just the brain’s way of processing what happened during the day and nothing else. But dreams are more than that—they are a subterranean mycelial network of connections, the deep underground roots we don’t see on the surface in the light of day but that give us all the nutrients we need to survive. Whether we remember them or not, they are providing us with much-needed sustenance and repair. But when we do remember them and pay them the respect and attention they deserve, something remarkable begins to happen. We are bringing some of those deep dark depths to light, which in turn means bringing ourselves more fully to life. It is a blossoming. A dream has very personal connotations but can also hold deep meaning for another. Many of us have similar recurring themes and experiences. In sharing them, we honor their existence, and can spark a remembering in another person. In a time of extreme disconnect, I believe this remembering is one of the most important things in the world. But not only that, sharing dreams is a lot of fun. Because, who writes this stuff anyway? That is the very reason for this segment, just the sheer joy of sharing dreams. We are not trying to pin anything down through interpretation or analysis, just appreciating the masterful art of the mysterious dreamweaver at work.
