Short story: John's flying dreams allowed him to see the bigger picture view of his life.

Most nights, in his dreams, John would find himself flying through the air, in some way, or another. Usually, he would be flying along, in his own body, alone. Last night, though, John also had a flying dream, but this time, it was just a little bit different than his usual flying dreams. John was dreaming that he was in a large hall, with many other people in it too. John was seated on a wooden chair, and then two young kids jumped up onto his lap on the chair. They knew, somehow, that John could fly. So, John flew with them on the chair, with the chair, all around the room. John was using his mind strength, concentrated onto the task of flying, to do so, but it was harder for him to do this, with the extra weight on board. John had to concentrate and focus on the strength of his thought of flying, even more to so, to avoid his dropping down again. Possible meanings for John's dream Dreams about flying generally show us that we are flying through life because of our inner understanding of how life works, and yet here John also realises that it is the strength of his own thinking that either lifts him up, or pulls him down, or allows him to stay where he is. In the air, John feels that he is above his problems, and that he has left them all far beneath/behind him then too. This is why John enjoys his flying dreams. He is always happy to be flying. John's psychologist told John, that he was probably unhappy in his waking life, and that he felt that he had no understanding or power to control its working. Alf, the psychologist, then went on to tell John that flying allowed John to have a bird's eye view over things, and to have the chance to realise also that this method of escape never works in real life, unless you really do jump out of your limited thinking, and attach it to your soul's wider purpose for your life, instead. In this dream, this particular flying dream shows John that as his soul, he will see above his everyday thoughts, and really sit down in his life, as his real self, with his mind, and his emotions, as depicted by the two kids, here in tow with him too, enjoying the ride also. John needs to realise that he is his soul reaching down to living a human life, not just his human self, trying to reach up to live a spiritual life (A very perceptive psychologist indeed. I wish that Alf was my own psychologist too!!) Photo Credit: The photo used in this article was sourced from the free media site, pixabay.com John's last dream really chaired him to himself!
