What does it mean?

For two nights in a row, I dreamed that Ella was in danger of being hurt in a ditch. And in the ditch was a large cement drain pipe that ran under the ground until it protruded just a few inches into the ditch. The first night she and I were falling into the ditch together and she nearly hit her head on the drain pipe until, while in midair, I jerked her away by her hand just in time for both of us to land on the grass outside the ditch. The second night she crawled into the drain pipe, which happened to be flooded about 4 inches with tomato soup. I know…weird.

I think I know what it means. It means nothing.

Isn’t it nice when something means nothing? How often does that happen in real life? Everything always means something, no matter how big or how small the thing is.

It’s so cool to have a really bad dream like your spouse has left you or your baby fell in a ditch, only to wake up and learn that it was all a dream. There are a lot of people who wish their lives could be like that, hoping that they’ll wake up and it was all just a dream that meant nothing.

They'd love to wake up and remember that their real life is wonderful and means so much.

Sometimes all it takes to go from meaning nothing to meaning a lot, is a change.

I like change. Change can turn nothing into something.

Grace and peace,
Johnny
