I think this should be the final blog tour entry and for me the most important. I’ve had a huge realisation. A while ago I opened a door into a new World and accidentally left a door open behind me. Several outstanding tasks separate me from freedom. As I clear them, I see, the World I leave behind me is a World of broken promises, a World of shattered egos, a World where no-one dares…

I’m actually shocked!

The sadness is overcome when I realise the World I have stepped into is a World full of rising stars, not falling ones. So it seems appropriate to post a blog by my daughter Cloudia, a young woman with a rising talent as a writer, a woman you will be hearing more of in time.

I also express profound gratitude to my fellow rising stars, those who dared!

See you on the other side of the looking glass…

Rising souls, I give you Cloudia Tinley…

Dreaming

I look forward to going to bed at night. The dreams we have that are made up from our memories and then distorted.
So when people say dreams mean something, they do! They are everything that has happened to you during the day or during a period of time.
We have many dreams in our lifetime of course. Even if you can’t remember having them.
I’ve had dreams recently when people are trying to kill me. Now in real life nobody is trying to get me, but my subconscious mind may see it that way.
Your subconscious is a very powerful thing. When you are typing on a keyboard you aren’t thinking “Now hit w” you automatically do it.
That is your subconscious working.
Now I love having dreams because for me it is a bit of a relief from reality. I can forget what is real and instead see things that are impossible or seem impossible in the real world. It is so much fun!
I have found that by listening to certain music triggers certain dreams or thinking about something will influence your dreams.
For example: If I listen to Decode by Paramore, which is the music from the film Twilight, I may possibly dream of vampires.
We’ve all heard of nightmares. They are just the dreams that seem horrible to us. But it is just your subconscious making it that way.
I know they aren’t nice but there is no cure. You can not control your subconscious or how it perceives things.
I hear that cheese of all things can make dreams stronger or enhanced etc. I’m not sure if it is true, but I have tried it.
It may have enhanced or made my dream slightly more manic.
So give it a go.
But remember to brush your teeth after eating it before bed! :)
