Dream

Wouldn't it be something if the voice of reason we hear — the voice that tells us not to do things and to do things — is the "us" of the future coming back and trying to help the "us" of the present to make a better way through life?

I was just falling asleep at my desk and I had a quick dream that recapped one of the major regrets I have in my life. And in my half dream state, I imagined thatI was given the opportunity to fix it and was whisked back to the moment that I was deciding how I was going to handle the situation. I imagined that I was given the opportunity to advise myself...which I did. I was whispering to myself "Don't do this" and made all kinds of warnings about what would happen (becuase they DID happen).

And of course, I didn't listen.

But the weird thing is, when I woke up (immediately after), I realized that all of those warnings were exactly the warnings being issued by my "better judgement" so long ago.
