The Challenge of the Inclining Road

Dreams are a form of language that is not only unique, but intimate. 

We have the choice of declining or accepting information in our dreams

and of determining how we will utilize them.  Dreams open a pathway

into a deeper understanding of the self.  It is only when the dreamer brings awareness to the dreamscape that the hidden desires unfold.

There was a time in my life when a relationship began to interfere with my spiritual path.  My beliefs were constantly challenged and I grew defensive.

As I minimized the importance of differing opinions, a heaviness

grew inside of me.  Suppressing my spiritual journey created

internal turmoil that I unwisely attempted to ignore. 

Then I had a dream:

I was happily walking up a tree lined road with sunshine warming my face. Feeling sure footed, I traveled up the incline as a gentle breeze

played with wisps of my hair.  I was being propelled up the road by a deep conviction to follow this path.  Even though I could not see over the

horizon, there was no question as to where I was being led.

In spite of the protection from the arched trees, perspiration began

to trickle down my spine and my legs began to buckle from

a mysterious weight.  I began to stumble and fall.  I knew as

this weariness increased I would never reach my destination.

I abruptly stopped in the middle of the road.   With grace and ease,

I lifted the man off of my back and placed him on the ground. 

Without any hesitation I turned and easily proceeded up the road. 

When I awakened from this dream, the message was brutally clear. 

In order for me to pursue my spiritual path, I could no longer

be weighed down by the relationship with this man.   As I recorded

every aspect of this dream in my journal, the right decision

resonated within me. 

Perhaps it would not be wise to alter the course of your life

based upon one dream, but frequently the accuracy of dream

content will bring repressed emotions to the surface.  When

you understand the language of your dreams, the results

can be profound.   Wisdom from dreams is delivered in living

3D color with heightened stereo sounds and physical sensations

making the message difficult to ignore!
