The Dreams Come

What happens when you dream?  This is an age old question. What do dreams mean? Kadizzle sleeps, and Kadizzle dreams.  Last night Kadizzle met his grandfather in a dream.  This seams to happen often. The dead are alive in dreams.  Kadizzle did a lot of things as a teenager he wishes he had not done, and treated a lot of people less than he should have.  The talk with my grandfather brought this out.  It was amazing to have a frank serious conversation with a person who died over forty years ago. The talk got the mind stirring about right and wrong, and how we treat people.  The dream ended with an awaking in every sense of the word.  Now laying in bed awake Kadizzle pondered what hiis granfater had said. My grandfather had a huge attic with several rooms.  One large room had a pool table. The whole neighborhood played pool on that pool table.  Also there was a bedroom in that attic.  If that bedroom could talk it would be a best seller.  A lot of exploration, learning, and who knows what else went on in that attic.  We abused my grandfathers trust.  I think that was what my grandfater was trying to say in the dream.  How many times in life have we abused trust?  Looking back on lilfe it is painful to think of how many people put faith in us, and it was misplaced. The dead can talk to us, and we can listen. We cannot go back, but we can learn.  As age ripens us we get to think differently.  The old dog, and the old tree become wise, so can we.  If you are given the gift of age use it wisely.  Look back and learn from the past.
