I am curious. How many among us have taken on a different form while in the dreamscape? Beyond the costumes we have been given to blend it.

I ask, as during the festival last month, I took part in the Storybook game, and upon entering the story, took on a different form.

Is there an intention to it? Or does it just happen? And if the former, how would one practice?

My condolences, that being the case. Humor's such a tedious thing to get right. And then there are some individuals who do so delight in getting a rise out of the rest of us purely for their own satisfaction.

And yes, anything can be made useful if one possesses the creativity for it. Perhaps you should look at your experience as a free gift, a form you might return to in the future should a need, or a use, arise.

With intention.

So you suspect that there is some entity having a laugh at our expense through these dreams?

[Dreams can get weird after all.]

But that might be a better way of looking at my predicament. Rather than dread.

Who can say? Such is not outside the realm of possibility.

Although personally speaking I should certainly hope not. I've more than enough laughter directed at me in a day than I currently know what to do with.

But what is there to dread? 'Tis but a temporary change, nothing more. In fact, with enough intention you might even be capable of rising above whatever form you take on within a given dreamscape.

Only my own worries, I suppose. Though, I have been known to dwell on those for too often. And the practice will help, as you say.

But let us hope there is no one to laugh at the attempts.

It sounds to me as if you are one of those sorts constantly fussing over every little detail that could possibly go wrong. And believe you me, I've tried my hand at it. Such tactics seldom work, for there is always something which one cannot hope to predict nor prepare for.

Know yourself, know your foe - it gets no simpler than that.

And indeed. Let us hope that we are not mere players on someone else's stage.

[iracorn]

You would. Not be in the wrong there. It's something I've tried to work on. I will do my best to take your words to heart.

[He means that, even if it's hard to convey through writing.]

But I agree.]
