The Soul

[Kayenneh]

Pel, you're not the only one with nightmares. As a kid, always when I was stressed, I used to see a dream where a tornado was chasing me. No matter how far I tried to get away from it, it would follow me. It was a dream filled with anxiety and fear. Later, after I'd started working, I would see a reccuring nightmare, that would make me wake up screaming. I was at my work and closing the place when customers just forced their way in. Every order I took would get fucked up in some way and the customers were getting angrier and angrier all the time. It ended when they had me cornered and their faces would melt away, giving way to horrific monsters underneath.

Now, dreams are merely our subconsciousness going through what has happen in the days before. Since the customers at my work were a demanding bunch, and sometimes really mean, it was no wonder that I would use that symbol in my dreams when I was stressing about anything. The tornado symbolised to me just the same, there was some situation in real life that needed to be taken care of, and as long as I was stressing about it, the more I saw nightmares, especially these two.

In other words, it's just your mind showing you something. Try and figure out what's stressing you during the daytime, what kind of symbolic language you use, and I think you'll realise what your dreams are about. In dreams there is no outside evil, it's all in your head.

And Pel, please don't get offended by this, but go see a psychologist if you're having nightmares of gross magnitude. No one should suffer from the anxiety and pain those kind of dreams bring and talking to a professional might help sort out your thoughts.

And we should be good and honest for our own sakes and for others. Not because of a made-up god.
