I’ve heard several souls whisper to me about dreams that mirror my own, echoing through the corridors of my mind. I have pondered these dreams for what feels like an eternity, and here’s what I’ve unearthed from the cryptic messages of my subconscious.
Firstly, my subconscious mind has revealed, through a tapestry of dreams, that it cloaks and governs me. It has shown me, time and again, cinematic scenes and visual tapestries woven from the threads of my past and strands of fantasy. These dreamscapes tell tales of my inner world, teaching me lessons about my essence and character.
Yet, my interpretations are but delicate musings, often susceptible to the winds of misjudgment. Thus, I tread lightly, holding my thoughts about the subconscious with gentle skepticism.
The dreams often paint a picture of a soul wandering through familiar realms, like an apartment or house. Time warps within these spaces, merging present faces with those from the past. The home itself might transform, blending elements from various abodes I’ve known throughout my life, creating a surreal, yet intimate sanctuary.

In the dream, the soul discovers a hidden portal—a door, an archway, or a crawlspace—that, when crossed, reveals a vast expanse, igniting a spark of wonder and the thrill of exploration. As the dream unfolds, the person ventures through this newfound realm, and in that journey, they awaken to the realization that they are dreaming.
I have walked this dream-path many times, and each time, upon this lucid awakening, a higher voice whispers to my mind. It speaks of boundless growth and liberation from the chains of fear and anxiety. It assures me that I need not succumb to compulsions or addictions, nor dwell in self-criticism, judgment of others, or conflict.
This voice gently reminds me that the pursuit of happiness is not a relentless chase; rather, it is an inherent state of being. In these dreams, I am not merely seeking happiness; I am happiness itself.
My mind can expand beyond the confines of a small room, representing the initial layer of consciousness we are born with. At around age ten, we dwell entirely in the material world, unaware of the hidden mental faculties behind our perceptions. At that age, there is no distinct self; it’s purely about the thrill of experience, as nature intended.
In my society, spanning from 1969 to hopefully 2069 (I aim to reach a century), we were all adrenaline junkies. We reveled in travel and vacations, wealth, sporting events, fast cars, beautiful women, and women on boats. Women have their own inclinations, which I do not fully comprehend, but they seem to enjoy similar things with slightly different nuances.
In modern times, we are wholly influenced by celebrities who possess wealth, especially those of striking beauty. They ascend to god-like status in our society. Many people believe these are the ideals to follow to be loved and accepted.
We shouldn't judge people as good or bad; instead, we should discuss levels of personal development. If one lives a life in pursuit of vanity and pleasure, balance must be found. It is easy to become addicted to something and let it turn into a negative pattern. Our use of something is often dictated by our state of mind, whether anxious or not.
The dream revealed to me that my perceptions of other people's success are entangled with my feelings of personal dissatisfaction. In this dream, the expansion of consciousness symbolizes the journey toward shedding vanity and releasing my ego. I visualize this transformation through the image of larger rooms within the fortress of my mind.
