“All human beings are also dream beings. Dreaming ties all mankind together.”
–Jack Kerouac
Tonight I thought I’d find a Jack Kerouac quote and talk about my years hitchhiking around and some of my road adventures. I still may do that some time soon tho instead of a road quote I pulled up a quote about dreaming and what we all have in common.
We all float along the dream stream, sometimes…
Letting go, seeing things clearer and more distant
or nearer and fuzzier,
In our dreams we clear our beings, I suppose in a way one of the functions of the dream world is to be the excretory system of what enters our psyche or perhaps to be more fair (and less gross) the digestive system , we process memes through dreams, lucidly or otherwise, keep what we we can use (sometimes to our detriment) and let the rest pass through whatever symbolic forms they may find…
Yet that would be just one function of dreams, our dreams may also serve as templates or heralds or influencers on what may be coming around the bend.When we become lucid in dreams, we may find ourselves able to influence our future selves in the larger dream we think of as waking life. Namaste, G

“We all float along the dream stream, sometimes…,” great line Gary. Do you keep a dream journal?
I do but it tends to become very stream of consciousness as i remember my dreams more piece mail, fragments drifting. Thanks 🙂
I find it hard to remember mine at all! Looking forward to your road adventures post. 🙂
