The Fifth Beatle

 





Last night I dreamt I was the fifth Beatle. It was the oddest thing. We were at a large gathering of some kind wearing white suits, the five of us, Ringo, George, Paul, John, and me. Odder still was the fact I knew John was either dead or going to die and I couldn’t take my eyes off of him. 

My sense was that he was also aware of the gravity of his situation, but continued to talk and laugh as if it didn’t matter. I felt as his friend I should do something or say something. All I could eventually bring myself to do was hug him and whisper in his ear, “It’s going to be alright.”

What an interesting dream.

Thanks for visiting mimi. I wanted to blog this particular dream b/c I sense there is something significant about it and I want to have it "concretized" in order to revisit it.

I dream a lot at night and every once in awhile I have a dream like this one that sticks with me. I'm still gleaning insight from my blog "The River of Fire" that I blogged about several months ago.

Thanks for stopping by ardvi. My blog doesn't get updated very much. Until this most recent post I'd almost forgotten I had a blog :^) .

If you like dreams you should check out "Stairway to Where?".
