My dream on June 18th 2011

I had a very disturbing dream last night.I used to be a bit of a party animal and to be perfectly honest with my readers i had on occasion(lots)used illegal substances.I can honestly say that i am not using anymore and have not for many years,thank you be to the Gods.Anyway i had this dream that i was doing a lot and in a bad way.I could feel it,touch it,smell it.....and i felt the effects of it even in my dreams and i felt the dissapointment in myself as i did it.I woke up feeling very mad and disturbed for the way this dream made me feel because its been at least 4 years now that i have had one of these dreams and i remember wondering"why am i having this dream all of a sudden now"?
  Well i found out a few hours later when my dear friend called to tell me that one of her family members was in the hospital of an overdose and now in stable condition.Without devulging any personal information to you which would be insensitive and rude of me i will just say that i feel because of my closeness with my friend that i was connected in someway with either her or her family member,because the first thing i thought about after thinking this dream over is wanting to have someone to talk to about it or vent about it and i thought of my good friend.Im not sure what the point of it was except for one thing it made me remember how wonderfull life is as a sober,thinking man,enjoying happiness as my drug of choice now.But also on some deeper levels it showed me how i can be connected with the people around me and friends and family and that when you tune into your surroundings our dreams can communicate with us things we need to know or lessons we need to learn and issues we need to deal with to move on.
  Anyway i hope this was a good example and im sure even though im not a great writter or anything that you all will have some very good contributions in this area.Everyone has dreams that have some kind of meaning to them.If you want yours to be read send it to me.Let me know if you mind if i put your name to it or not and i will do so or not but again please give permission to use it or do not send it,i only want stuff that im allowed to use.Thank you and Blessed be.
