Dreamers.

I once read about myself in a book called The Poetics of Space by Gaston Bachelard. In a certain chapter he speaks about " dreamers", and how we love the harsh winters, looking through windows with long velvet drapes, and a roaring log fire across the room with an armchair next to it. I also love the sound of heavy rain on a tent, when I'm inside snuggled up in a sleeping bag reading by my lamp.

The harsh outdoors gives more significance to the indoors, a feeling of protection and warmth.

Are there any other dreamers out there?

"Yes I know exactly what you mean x "

I've spoken about this before, and some people get it straight away.

Yes I understand. We were caught in a fierce downpour in the forest recently and sheltered under a tree, the sound of the rain on the leaves lent a deep feeling of security in contrast to the harsh weather.

Some archaeologists believe that prehistoric man felt this way about the houses they built for themselves although I have no idea how they infer this. They believe they saw their shelters as separating the harsh uncontrollable outside from the calm controllable inside.

I like to watch the trees on a windy day too. I feel safe inside.

My favourite Christmas cards are still the ones with a little cottage or a village at night,with a dark star-lit sky,snow falling covering the scene,and the tiny windows lit up a warm orangey-yellow.

If they had glitter on they were extra special.

It just seems like a natural feeling, maybe animals feel something similar, even sitting in the car on the peak district watching the rain on the windscreen, hearing it on the roof in darkness is lovely, I sometimes drive out there just to experience this, makes me feel better.

I always like those cards, when I've been out winter walking, and I can see a house or village with that orange glow, I can't wait to get home to my warm house, hot dinner and bed, yum.

This site is full of them......"single" guys who would love to meet but don't have the bottle or concerned partners may find out.

And those posing as couples.......

That's my definition of dreamers!

I dream a lot about, a log cabin in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by snow.

A roaring open fire and a cosy white fluffy rug opposite it. With marshmallows punched through metal skewers and pink fizz waiting for us on the side table. A deep aubergine velvet couch, covered in a grey super soft throw.

Lovely. Mine's a little wooden tree house in a huge ancient sycamore, surrounded by the constant whisper of rustling leaves. It overlooks a little wooded dale with a winding stream dancing over rocks, and in the morning mist hangs in the air in the valley bottom. Inside is a shelf bed covered in blankets and quilts, a little stove to keep the chill out, and floor to ceiling books. Heaven.

Up on them there hills

Damn my cognitive thought.

Shamic rituals work at 130-150 rhythmic beats per minute called the thea wave (dragging this from wat back in my mind).

The altered state it crests is part of the journey. Just so happens this is a regular nature rythem.

Micheal Harnner) question spelling) has a great CD out which has both single and double shamanic drumming.

Okay back to the other world.
