I woke up earlier than I normally would have. I only slept about 5 hours. My natural sleep cycle is 8 hours. Literally if I’m not sleep deprived and I sleep without an alarm it is spot on 8 hours within just a couple of minutes. Like clockwork.

I woke up because of a very odd dream. Not a nightmare, but an odd dream. I was driving around in a sports car (A Porsche Boxster or 718, and no I’m not listening to Summertime :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:) and out of nowhere it started flooding with this made up road I’ve never driven on. Oh and to be clear, I don’t own a car currently by choice, but I do love the Boxster and the 718 (new not the late 50’s version).

Anway, flooding blocked my way out. I magically made my way up to the top of the bridge, but still in my car. Dreams can be so odd that way. lt can’t figure something out so it just magically happens. LOL. Anyway, the flood waters kept coming up. Then I was magically in a coupe, but a completely different car. And then the Coast Guard came at the very last minute in a helicopter and I was saved. That’s when I woke up.

So I’m not sure if that’s about my being saved or I rise above everything. I’ll sit on that one and let it reveal itself, because it makes a difference.

I do remember another dream that was very odd also. lt was an older Asian and he came at me because I didn’t personally believe in his religion (I’m not religious, I’m spiritual but absolutely believe in a higher power). So anyway this older gentleman started to attack me, and quite efficiently. I broke his leg at his knee and l got primal with him (no I’ve not used any sub like that :thinking: ).

But then I felt bad for him and took him to the hospital. He apologized and we became best of friends. Not sure if that was about forgiveness? About what though?

Again, I’ll let these reveal themselves. I don’t know if those are the kinds of dreams I’m having lately or not. Most I don’t recall lately as I’ve already mentioned. The mind is interesting so is this about forgiving the DUI driver that killed my partner? Forgiving my father? Forgiving society? Heck, even forgiving myself?

Or something completely different? We’ll see. I’ll be patient with all this. It will reveal itself over time. My mind is working on something big though. I can tell. I’m actually excited because this feels like a big breakthrough is eminent.

It’s important to mention this and to state it here publicly so I can be held accountable, I’m still going to run my healing custom for 2+ years because there are a ton of things that need to heal and I need to make sure it’s taken care of this time.

I have a long history of imploding on myself when things go bad. It’s because of my childhood abuse. It’s not an excuse, but I’m not running away from it or hiding my head in the sand about it. When things get real bad I have a history of being suicidal. When I was a teenager I made a serious suicide attempt. lt wasn’t my time to go. I know it was divine intervention.

I tried to pick modules that would heal various things that needed to be healed and I did a ton of research. The stuff that needs to heal will always need to be healed until it’s healed. lt’s time and I have found something that finally works so I will work it. Not give it up because I feel better.

How will I know it’s healed? That’s where a therapist will come in, but within time. Not right now.

I caught a nice pocket of decent sunny weather today and took a walk to the park and around my neighborhood. It’s been rainy the last couple of days and quite overcast. Blah. :cloud_with_rain:

But the sun broke out and there was a nice big patch of mostly blue skies, so I took advantage of it. There were a few people out and it’s odd, people just seem friendlier lately. I’m sure it’s me. I do walk around with a perma smile most days so I’m sure that’s a part of it.

It’s genuinely difficult during the winters. To a large extent I’m back to graveyard, but obviously not 100%. But during the winter I have barely two hours to catch some daylight but towards the end, I’m lucky to catch an hour. I don’t live in a rough neighborhood by any stretch, but the city I live in has its problems and I might take a walk around the block but that’s about it during the winter.

Oh well. It’s nice to enjoy the last of the decent weather, if not outright beautiful. Todays walk turned out beautiful and I’m grateful for it.

Yesterday for fun, I started a new series (a page in The Emperor’s Lounge) that’ll be essentially Trading 101.

Here is the link to that page:
Alexander’s Guide To Becoming A RICH Trader

I get PMs occasionally asking for trading help, to learn how to trade, etc. So I figured I’ll put some of my basic (but most people think “advanced” trading knowledge) in one spot for people to learn some more advanced basics.

I’ve seen it in person quite a few times before where someone has been trading for months, a year, etc and so I go over some incredibly basic trading stuff and their eyes gloss over, not because they’re bored but I am instantly talking over their head.

Then I’ll ask them and they lmk they didn’t understand what I was saying, or it was much deeper than they were ready for, etc. I don’t know what most of the people teach these days, but it doesn’t seem like much.

So I figured I’ll do these free lessons on the side for people here. Plus it helps me to revisit some of the basic stuff I haven’t thought of in years. And frankly, when people in the future ask for trading knowledge I’ll just point them to my “Trading 101 Page” :smiley:

There is a method to my madness. LOL.

Just sitting and doing nothing for a few minutes is happening daily and I like it. I’m going to implement a time of day where I just sit for say 5 minutes and literally do nothing. Unplug. No input. No output.

I’m not talking about Peter Gibbons from Office Space and sit and do nothing all day. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: I’m talking about taking 5 to 10 minutes and just sitting. Let my mind clear.

I caught myself doing it again today and it’s so peaceful. So it’s going to become a formal routine.

Well my Dodgers lost game 1. It was in Milwaukee and they lost 1 to 2. They came close in the last inning but not close enough. Truly a very good game and fun to watch because it was so close, but a loss is a loss.

Even if they happen to lose the next game, I doubt they will to be honest, this series is best of 7. I wouldn’t be shocked if this series goes the full 7. I do expect the games to be won by only 1 or two runs.

I will say this though, the Dodgers offense needs to wake up if they have any hopes of winning this series and winning the World Series.
