"There are symbolic dreams- dreams that symbolize some reality. Then there are symbolic realities- realities that symbolize a dream."
-Haruki Murakami, A Wild Sheep Chase
I think dreams make you realise a lot about what you want. I've never felt so happy except in my dreams.
I had a super great laugh that time having lunch with Jenna, Yaoxin and Leon. Laughed till our sides were splitting and making a din. If you look at all of us, we're all noisy people.
But I fell asleep yesterday afternoon. And the last dream I had that made me so happy was the one on a cruise ship. Where my sis woke me up laughing.
This dream made me so happy and smiley that I picked up the phone and said Hello? so naturally. I thought everything was happening for real and it wasn't a dream. Until I saw myself on the bed and Fangqi asked me if I were sleeping.
Happiness is short-lived.
It doesn't matter, I remember what I dreamt and it lasts me a long long long way. The cruise dream was so long ago. Exactly a year ago? Or two.
I dreamt he came up and said that to me. And even though I was shocked and avoided him, I think deep down that's what I really wanted. But he's gone for so long. No one can bring him back.
I dreamt I were back in a choir. Ajchoir with seniors. A lot of people. And many other I don't know. And I stood next to this senior wearing white. I don't remember her face but she's a good singer. An alto.
She suddenly reached over with her powder compact and pat my eye. "You look tired."
Her applicator was a rose made of soft cottony sponge.
The choir sounded good.
And in the dream I was in a bus or caravan sort of vehicle with a few people. It was something like a bar, yet in a bus. And we were sitting in a line just eating and talking.
The simple joys of life.
I was with Pamela, Leon, Jenna and Perry. I kept taking Auntie Perry's food. Lol
But the feel I got from just being there was one the the purest, most basic form of happiness I ever felt. One where time is non-existent and you just live in the now.
I know how being happy feels. I know how talking to friends and simply playing around feels. It feels good. But is it so difficult to stop and just enjoy? I have always felt like I had everything. I am happy.
But how is it that I feel I've never experienced any such singular emotion before. But then again, it is not so.
It is like a drink. You think you're drinking lemon juice. But in actual fact, you're having lemon. Sugar. Water. There's never any pure distinction. One without the other. Of course it's fine to have Sugar just by itself. But the things don't come together like it should. Worries, Sadness, Regrets, Anxiety accompanies Happiness.
You cannot have Sugar without Lemon Juice or Water. Or just have Lemon Juice.
The Lemon Juice tastes exactly like it should.
Sweet and sour.
