the creation mentor
(this is where one half of my nights' dreaming takes place)
i am in what feels to be a basement in a house. i feel sure that i am with elias and one older woman who is a teacher to us. there are others in the house. singer is there because i know i kept thinking of her name. at first, there a bunch of us together with this woman.. the color in the room we are in seems to be a turquoise-blue. the woman is helping us learn by doing.....how to create with our bodies and not our minds. she takes us to a strange piano. the keys are very thin, and they are all white - no black keys. they have the notes written on them. she is telling a man to play a piece of music on the piano. he fouls it up pretty badly. he says he cant do it properly because he doesnt know how to play and doesnt understand the song or the piano. she pushes him out of the way and dismisses him. she instructs me to come sit at the piano and play. i feel a force coming from the center of my body, showing me how to play. it is difficult to let go of my mind and just move with the sensation coming from my center. she appears to be very pleased. pretty soon, everyone else has been dismissed but me and elias (i think). the woman is now encouraging us to paint and play music without our minds.... just with the feeling from the body.
the feeling i had was that our (me and elias) particular strengths were similar, and being nurtured in dreaming by her.
later on, she tells us that it is our duty to do dreaming. that we cannot abandon our calling.

in a later scene, i am at the same place and drinking a martini.... i am annoyed at myself for having forgotten that i am going to have to drive the long way back to my house to avoid the freeway if i drink it...... i don't want to be driving that fast after drinking....
