A recent dream…

In the Harvard Square area walking the busy sidewalks.

Stopped into a small music hall, and there were lots of 20 something artistic types around.

I sat on an old-fashioned swivel stool like in the old drug stores and had a nice talk with the female server.

Then I was pushing an empty grocery carriage along the sidewalk and water had flooded the area, 

so, I couldn’t push the cart any further, and from across the street a young man that I knew dove across the water filled street to help me.

Then I was trying to enter this olde stone building on a college campus.

There was this big door, but in front of it were two 20 something women in a big sleeping bag together blocking the door.

I kept asking them to move over and they grudgingly did so.

Then a teacher came buy, and said it was the wrong entrance.

“Nobody sees anybody truly but all through the flaws of their own egos. That is the way we all see …each other in life. Vanity, fear, desire, competition– all such distortions within our own egos– condition our vision of those in relation to us. Add to those distortions to our own egos the corresponding distortions in the egos of others, and you see how cloudy the glass must become through which we look at each other. That’s how it is in all living relationships except when there is that rare case of two people who love intensely enough to burn through all those layers of opacity and see each other’s naked hearts.”
