There is dreaming, too,
that desires nothing.
It is not, as one might think,
of the man who has
everything, who possesses
all the gifts of the world,
but is of he who has
purpose enough to desire well
when he is awake,
and can make something
of what he has. Extraneous
wanting is solved;
all his dreams do is tell him things.
Too, some fire does not
consume that which it burns,
like the burning bush
which gave light to holy Moses,
as a sign: some fire
is as the breath of life.
For I think it is the natural state
of angels to burn
with a holy light, what we
desire to live as like.
And an angel’s dream
is full of signs, where he travels
to holy ground and listens;
the difference being
the angel goes in barefoot,
while we, like Moses,
must be told, even
in our deepest of dreaming:
“Take off thy sandals,
for where you walk...”

All I have to say is that what you write, are the thoughts I wish I could convey. I've been reading for hours now... I hope you don't mind this but I had a Dream once when I was young That An Angel Like being tore through my normal current dream and took me to a heat impregnated desert. In the desert there was but one large leafless tree. In the tree, sitting, were many little kids, the "angel" pointed to the tree. I climbed up to the excited children as if they were expecting me. I told them they were welcome to come back with me to play hide and go seek ( which is what i was originally dreaming about) but they told me they couldn't because they had killed themselves... a person i met i was telling this too and they had had the same dream... strange

sorry... ive read more... I know where you are coming from on the whole religious quest thing, when I had that dream I was about 10 years old. And had just recently Let god into me life, Due to Being awoken before in the night and having shadowy corpses kneling next to my bed that would just stare at me, It was when they started to move things and slam my doors and i heard voices in my head, but I was very depressed at the time too for no reason it seemed i would just cry, the "demons" are what made me turn to god and i have never been bothered since... the only sign that stands out from the rest now is the number "12" it comes in threes. I find this strange because 12 apostles, 12 months, 12 hours, 12 gates, 12 angels,12 pearls, 12 signs of the zodiac...blah blah blah, all this i have found out because it started to bother me... i dunno it seems liek you are intrested in this stuff and i don't really talk aabout it
