Had a macabre dream last night. It involved a white duck. The duck was either a pet or one of the farm animals that belonged to us. There was some kind of problem that required that the duck be captured and penned. But the creature kept escaping from our crude traps and snares. At one point the duck ran under the house and up behind a wooden stairwell. There was a huge creature that was helping us as we tried to capture the duck. When the duck ran behind the stairwell, the large creature picked up an anvil. He threw the anvil onto the porch and crushed the stairwell. The duck was trapped by the heavy anvil and was killed. We went under the porch and found the crushed remains of the duck. Its feathers and blood were smeared across a small sustaining wall at the rear of the stairwell.

Spent a lot of the day doing research on getting to Baja, obtaining medivac insurance, and so forth. Roundtrip fare will be about $400. Medivac insurance runs about $250. Truck storage around $150/mo. My storage locker's monthly fee will continue somewhere around $55/mo. to $75/mo.

Had a delicious breakfast--scrambled eggs with a salsa, avocado and sour cream. Rye toast.

Spoke with RS and told him of my sadness over the passing of his daughter. He continues to be a model of rationality and stability given the immense karmic issues he continues to deal with in his life.

No Power Healing class tonight. Columbus Day holiday being celebrated by some. Continue to listen to Tolle CD's. There is a clarity around what he speaks about, and what he's talking about, Living a Peaceful Inner Life, dovetails the Almaas writings about the enneagram of Holy Ideas. Out of all of this information and data, I seem to be drifting toward some conclusions and decisions. Everything is still nascent and premature, but some indications of direction are beginning to emerge.

The immense earthquake in Pakistan, India, Afghanistan dwarfs the tragedy of the recent hurricanes. So much turmoil in the world right now. It's as if the demons have been loosed and that there is no limit to what will keep happening.
