Wednesday Rant

i had a weird dream last night. mostly i'm so exhausted when i go to bed i don't dream. or i don't remember that i dream. i was at a house that belonged to one of my nephews. not lono's house, as this one was quite different. my nieces and nephews were all there, but they were much younger, actually younger than 20. i didn't see lono, and i didn't see my sister, but i saw all the other kids and they were still school-age. there was a grassy front yard that sloped down to the street. one of the kids had been outside and came to call all of us in the house to come and look at the sky. so we all went outside and sat in the front yard and looked up. the sky was absolutely black, and raining shooting stars. it was kinda like the perseid meteors, but big time! it was beautiful, fascinating to watch, and rather thrilling. no one spoke. we just sat there watching. and when i say 'raining', i mean just that. there was so much of it the falling stars (or whatever) looked like streaks of rain. and then i woke up.

it never occurred to me in my dream to run fetch my camera. it wasn't a kodak moment. if anything, it was a 'family' moment. i had a chance to hang out with my nieces and nephews to witness something major. i didn't see my own kids around, but i sensed they were there--i could feel their presence nearby. i didn't see james, either, but he's always hovering in the background. but i kinda got the sense that a BIG change was coming, and this one would manifest first not on the aina or the kai, but in the heavens. and that manifestation would signal the next change, here on earth. a big thing is coming--not news to anyone, of course. let us be ready for the transition.
