Fish Out Of Water




"He resolved to be the fish who found purpose and meaning
despite the unnatural environment."
Jesikah Sundin

My morning ritual began with flipping on the previously prepped coffee pot, and then feeding my Beta fish, creatively named "Fin". I was stunned to see him lying outside of his bowl, perfectly still. Immediately, I grabbed him noticing how dry he was and slid him gently back into his bowl. Excruciating seconds later, he began to swim.

Deciphering dreams has been a long time passion of mine. So, I began to realize this waking dream reflected my current sense of stagnant withdrawal. I was swimming in circles, trapped in a mental container that was stifling me. It was time to swim upstream, to plant fresh seeds, and to anticipate new birth. 

As a private person, I  am quietly drawn to multi-sided individuals, intriguing cultures, and the illusion of time and space.  I thrive with deep relationships as my heightened sensitivities are drawn into unseen spiritual space. Beyond the chaos, that is where I will be, enhancing  the essence of me.
