I woke up much too early after going to bed very late last night. In fact, it was early this morning before I did finally go to sleep. After a few hours of being productive; a little cleaning, knitting, reading Steemit posts … it was time for a nap.
Before I went to dreamland, I read Raj808’s latest post about the crazy, cool Steem Dream he had last night. As I drifted off I thought about my upcoming contest and toyed with amounts for the prizes and bounty I want to assign to the September contest round.
I really enjoyed Raj808’s post about his dream. So I am following suit and posting about my dream as well.
The Dream
What a dream it was! I was stunned to find that my late mother was alive again, and she was excited because she had just started her own Steemit blog!
She was so excited that she had just purchased some kitschy little gifts - miniature toy pigs and the like to send to people who supported her blog! She was "whole hog" in!
I was bewildered by her enthusiasm because I had been trying to get her to join Steemit and all my attempts had just fallen by the wayside.
Now all of a sudden, Steemit was on her radar and she wouldn’t have even told me about it if I had not caught her typing on a lap top.
What Does It Mean?
This dream was in alignment with the typical behavior of my mother when she was alive. She was usually off in her own world. And many times something I would tell her would just bounce off her because she just wasn’t capable of listening.
Only later I would find her to be embracing whatever idea or information I shared earlier with her like it was her own unique discovery! No surprises there!
But, why the little kitschy gifts?
And, a bigger why: Why was my mother back from the dead and blogging?
Any ideas?
Does this dream speak to you? If so, please drop me a comment and tell me what message you received. (smile)
After the Nap
It took a little time to shake off the dream, but after a bit, I decided to look at my phone notifications, and found:
had little sleep last night and also took a nap. In her latest post she sent me a blue butterfly. (so sweet!)
replied to me in our conversation regarding him posting about his “hauntingly familiar” experience. (can’t wait to read his future [time TBD] post!)

Community!
What I got from all this before, during and post dream time combined is - it feels good to be connected. I love having Steemit friends that inspire, support and spend a little time with me.
If you do not have one or more communities where you feel you belong, you are missing out on the best Steemit experience.
Get connected and make some new friends, and as I said to , keep Steemin’ and keep dreamin’!
