To live in North Korea is a nightmare I dreamt that I lived in North Korea and so did the people that I know. We were finding all ways and means to leave that country but to no avail. If we leave, Kim Jong Il is going to get his ninjas to hunt us down and most likely kill us. But if we stay, we will not be badly treated either. Just that the me inside my dream wanted to see the world, and wanted freedom from all the farce we are living in...and we tried many times to strategize a plan to escape from the country. I dreamt of Danny Yeo too, who was the courageous and witty one to lead us out! Haha...my dream can be made into a drama already. It will be too long if I describe my dream. But I did not dream of an ending. But it was a nightmare because I woke up feeling defeated and totally not in the mood to start my new day....it was like a heavy weight causing me to sink. But it was amazing that (I think and I believe) when people are hardpressed against the wall, having no more space to move, the only way is to fight back. In chinese it is yu4 qiang2 ze2 qiang4. That means when we meet a strong opponent, instead of being overcomed, we rise up in strength comparable to the strength coming from the opponent. This lesson taught me that there is substance in every human being. Our human nature is really not that weak as we may think. Just that at times, we need something that will provoke us to unleash our full strength/potential. For me, I realize the way I get myself provoked is to feel really defeated like I did this morning. I haven't felt an awakened and fearsome giant for a long long time! I like that feeling. But I know it's not just a feeling. It is a DECISION. So it isn't going to come and go, but it is going to stay for a long time because it is a change in my mindset. Labels: contemplative, daily rantings, dreams 11:32 AM
