Like most of us, my daily life often lacks enchantment, and usually when I need it the most! But one part of my life can always exceed my expectations, and that is while I am dreaming. My imagination runs wild, unbounded by the inhibitions and self-limitations that I usually carry around with me.
For example, a week or two ago I was lucky enough to experience a lucid dream. It happens from time to time, though not nearly often enough for my liking! In this particular dream I was visiting a train station - slightly Harry Potteresque - and suddenly realised I was dreaming. How wonderful! My thoughts turned to flying but try as I might I couldn't get more than a foot off the ground. Still, it was a magical experience, and one that has stayed me ever since.
To me, dreams are very much a part of my real life. And due to the stresses and strains that we all go though these days, my dreams are often the closest I come to the enchantment I experienced as a child. I admit I'm a bit of a 'dreamer', still spending my sleeping hours riding a magic carpet over the twinkling lights of the town below.... and I hope it always stays that way!
