Dropping Out of School
It’s a strange thing to occur in a dream, for sure. After all, I graduated high school 55 years ago. But a recurring dream after high school was that I went back to do grade 13 over, in order to improve my marks. It’s a metaphor for lifelong learning, especially of spiritual matters.
So why am I dropping out? Consciously, I am aware that having a spiritual ‘routine’ has become very stale. I need to just let go and let God.
My ‘goody-two-shoes’ attitude no longer works. I just want to be the authentic me. And my dreams are telling me that I need to stop being unreal. Now I’m pushing forward without pretence.
That’s a lesson that has taken me a lifetime to learn.
