Green Ocean Dream

On a Friday morning in the springtime I returned to bed during the early morning light. As my body drifted off to sleep I remained gently aware. I entered into a lucid dream. I was flying through cooling, cleansing, green water toward a mountain in the distance behind me. As the ocean water flowed over me, it flowed through me as well, making a beautifully melodic sound like wind-chimes. The feeling of the water and the sound of the chimes were one unified sensation. For the first time, in a long time, it felt like I was in an effortless flow, sailing toward that mountain peak.
