Nessa: This particular sentence stood out to me: "Ever wonder how much time you spend per day on someone else’s dream? I do."---I never thought of it that way, but now that you put it that way, I'd be thinking about it differently. Thank you for sharing this piece.
Hi Thalia! I re read the piece. It feels like so long ago by now. I remember the feeling that that sentence evoked when I wrote it. The awareness followed by mourning of my self-abandonment taught behaviors. I remember observing that when I lose touch with my intuition, I lose touch with myself and therefore with my dreams.
Societal norms are someone else's dream (or nightmare rather). Not mine. I never dream to be exposed to harm.
Thanks for reading my posts and taking the time to comment. It means something to me.
Impermanence has been a favored thought of mine lately. As I interpret the meaning of impermanence in my life, it does negate the drive for control, constancy and certainty. I think it leaves me stronger. Nessa, a good post. The culture report is a funny twist. 1+ penis? Treat with estrogen?

"Why do humans always hunger for that which we can’t have? For what I call the 3 C’s: Control. Constancy. Certainty." -- I love this... so true.
We had that Anaïs Nin quote on our wall in Oxnard!
