To be, or not to be

mellowtiggerNormally I remember only a handful of dreams a year, and those tend to be dreams of recurring themes. Exceptionally rare are dreams of original material that I remember upon waking. In recent days, though, I have exceeded my annual quota. I think last night I may have finally figured out the cause.
A body will crave things that it needs. So too will a mind. I have spent many years simplifying my life, removing things that seemed unnecessary. Apparently now though my mind craves emotional complexities that I consciously avoid. I haven't dated in 11 years. I needed my own space to ponder many issues, and I figured it was a sort of kindness, actually, to not inflict myself upon anyone new. So it was a bit troublesome to find that "the men of my dreams" were actually showing up in my dreams. Last night the dead made an appearance too. The surprise of it was sufficient to wake me immediately upon seeing him. At least I figured it out finally, I think. My mind craves the complexity of a relationship again.
Naughty mind. As soon as I find it, I'll have to give it a proper scolding.
