Dreamed over the last few nights, but don't recall many details. I know I woke up in both dream sequences and was aware of dreaming. Waited too long to keep the details in mind. Will dream again!

Reading two spiritual memoirs--When My Fear Falls Away by Jan Frazier and In the House of My Fear by Joel Agee. Interesting that both speak of fear within the context of experiencing a spiritual breakthrough.

Frazier's book is written as a journal format and recounts her feelings and sensations associated with her being in a state of continuous joy--which she realizes she can switch on and off with her attention. It is a diary of her experiences after she has had the spiritual break.

Agee's book is (so far--I'm still reading just its beginnings) is more of an autobiography and begins with his adventures as a young man who is exploring the world. Don't know when it gets to his spiritual experiences versus his formative escapades.

Yesterday, had lunch at GH's/BH's. I helped GH replace his DVD player. It was a simple task once we took out all of the old stuff (sound system, old DVD player and associated rat's nest of wiring). There was some mystery about how to control the new DVD through the VCR, but we figured it out. It was a fun technopuzzle!

Tomorrow I begin the PD exercise class at the PD Institute. Looking forward to what I will be doing there and what I can learn. Still haven't gotten back to doing a daily walk or even walking three day's each week.

Went by the Obama offices today and picked up an Obama yard sign for L. Person at front desk was a person I hadn't seen in probably 20 years or more. Surprise! It's a small world! My face recognition brainware still works! Amazing what the brain stores and does!
