Fear is the lock, and laughter the key to your heart

4/9/2012
I had a dream last night that my shower was filled with these giant blue bugs that looked like a mix between a grasshopper and a butterfly. I was afraid to step into that shower, and so I went to the other shower in the house, and they were there as well. With no other options,  I stepped into the shower, and started the water, and these bugs opened their giant wings and were gloriously beautiful. I was touched by how colorful they were. It was magic. I woke up this morning, and decided to think about what my dream could have meant.
 I am by no means a dream reader, but I do think the bugs in my dream represented my fear.  When I stepped into the shower, with those big blue mysterious bugs in it, I was facing a fear. And in doing that, I saw the beauty in it. There are so many things I am afraid of. As humans, we naturally cling to fear in the absence of love. But I really want to step into the shower of my fears, and let the water wash it all away. I can no longer allow my life to be run by my fears. And sometimes, when you just jump wholeheartedly into it, your fears really do transform into the glorious and colorful butterfly that is real love.
