Dream State

I have had a very odd day today all as a result of my dreams. My dreams have been very vivid for a few weeks now and not too pleasant either, all typically symptomatic of things playing on my mind, nothing too serious but enough to cause a few nightmares. However, last night I was taken back to some old feelings that were so real they have haunted me all day and I have not been able to shift the resultant mood. 

The dream has all but faded with only a couple of images clear in my mind but the feeling is so close still I could weep.

How amazing that dreams can have such a strong effect. I expect that tomorrow, following another nights sleep, this will all be a distant memory but in the here and now I could be consumed by the feeling the remnant dream memory still evokes.

On a more positive note this is the first blog post I have made for sometime, having recently been deliberating on whether to delete my blog or not, and it is so good to be back. I have also changed the look of my blog to suit me. I have favoured this blog format for some time however resisted keeping it as I was advised it is not too user friendly however as visitors are few these days I am going to have it the way I want it and just enjoy it. And....this year marks 10 years of In The Pink! How can that possibly be?!
