Happy ayyam'i'ha![]

I am often aware that I am awake inside of a dream, but It seems like I lack the control to leave a mundane dream setting for a purposeful journey I told myself I would take before I went to sleep.

This is what happens, I realize I am dreaming, but I am either doing some mundane domestic task in an unfamiliar place, like cleaning the lint and dirt behind someones appartment washer and dryer,washing dishes,grocery shopping or riding in a car with a group of people to some destination, or waiting with strange people or people I "know", for someone to enter the scene.

I then sort of daydream inside of the lucid dream knowing that it is a dream, my original intent, and it lives inside of that dream as wishful thinking.

I'd like to break the cycle, and actual do the things i set out to accomplish before I fall asleep.

Are most Bahai super cheery?  The ones I met yesterday at the Ayaam-i-Ha party were super cheery. They were nice poeople, thougyh.

Not more or less than anyone else, life is just one of those things you have to deal with, it depends on the person, though the faith people choose, can sometimes help people deal better with life's circumstances.

Sitting down and sharing a meal with people is usually cheerful ,and bahai's generally have pretty decent pot luck dinners with food from around the world.

As today is the the start of the fast, from sunrise to sunset, my mind is on food, hopefully I can distract myself with some good old spirituality.

There is an awareness sometimes in a dream, a feeling of excileration(sp), of joy, expansion, freedom, of now I am free. It is a feeling like non other which to me is what the feeling of being and realizing that you are out of body is all about...too bad I have been able to reach this from a semi-conscious trance state, the closest I've come is a falling sensation.

Yes it was called the Santa Monica Pier. I spent the rest of the week on my trip to LA, going back to the area to see if anything else gave me the feeling of deja-vu.

The other night, I did become lucid in my dream. I was walking through this neighborhood and looked up at the sky and saw a lighted disk ufo thing(that had a bad dark feeling attached to it). I said to myself, didn't I tell myself before I went sleep that if I saw a ufo, then I am awake inside of a dream.

This was the cue I was looking for because I started to float up. As I started to float up, I thought good, now I can go to California, and demanded to go. As soon as I was about 30 feet above the roof tops, everything went black. I went into a void. I thought good, a short cut, California Now!, and I repeated this, but instead of going anywhere, I woke up instantly without any seemingly transistions or fanfare.

I am planning another trip to California next year, and I was going to write down any dreams I have about trips to california, and see if any of them are confirmed.

The last trip to California, confirmed a dream I had about a arcade on a pier. In the dream I was trying to travel left, and I walked through an arcade that was over the water at night and that was as far left as I could go.

When I really got to California a year later, I took a bus from downtown, down to the end of the line,to my surprise  there was  an amusement park pier right there. I walked down the pier and there was an arcade on the left hand side. The arcade was exactly as it appeared in the dream, and I walked through the back of it going left, and it was over the water. The feeling of deja-vu and connection was exciting.

So my dream idea or mission is to go on my vacation in my dreams first, then try to match them up with a real trip later on. Since the trip to California is already planned for next summer.

I think it would make for a much more interesting vacation, then going through a travel agent.

I already have a few more dreams that I need to confirm.

I've had a dual awareness. One night at about 3 in the morning I woke up and saw and felt the room around me, but at the same time I felt another space, there was nothing in the space but a wind that I could feel and hear, but no wind outside of my bedroom or inside, the wind existed in another space that was comepletely black, yet I was in both places at the same time.

It seemed to go on forever,timeless and I said a comforting bahai prayer I had memorized several times...Oh God Guide Me, protect me, illumine the lamp of my heart and make me a brilliant star, for though art the mighty and the powerful.

I remember a wind like this from childhood dreams, it would pluck me from the ground and pull me up into the air, then I would get scared and black out.

I think telepathy is always on, like the refridgerator motor we tune out when we are in the kitchen, though hear late at night when everyone else is sleeping.

My husband calls me every day to tell me what he's had for lunch, if he has gone to a restaurant because if he doesn't I will for some reason feel compelled to make the same thing for dinner, ready when he gets home.

A few weeks ago our power went out due to the hurricane so we camped out for a few days at my mom's house in another town.

The first night I had a dream that part of the tooth next to my top front on the right hand side broke off, in the dream I could feel it and see it in the mirror. It freaked me out to see this own jagged tooth because my teeth are in excellent shape, I have no crowns or fillings, or bridgework, just teeth. I was so upset in my dream that my tooth was ruined, I cried in my dream.

The next morning my mom told everyone that sometime during the night she lost her crown on the exact same tooth I had dreamt about...
