Dream – Rebuilding The City
Issues: ... getting better or worse … need to know … life … building anew … dream and reality …
Woke up just before 7 am. I was considering moving into a new neighborhood where a lot of activity was going on building a kind of village atmosphere. I was younger myself, and dressed smartly in a business suit. So was the young man I was talking to. He apologized and took from me a near solid gob of pain. I did not want to get it on my new suit though it gave me paint where I had picked it up. We were outside now on a new plaza his workmen had just built. All around me were colorful old buildings and shops with used equipment and parts so that young adults could buy anything cheaply they needed for their rebuilding. We all got excited with the community atmosphere developing.

I wonder to myself, with the rattle I hear in my chest upon waking, am I getting worse or better? I feel no pain. I have normal energy again, physical and mental. Am I getting better or worse? I have fewer coughing bouts but still a few intense ones towards the end of the day. What is happening to me?
Do I need to know?
I shall assume that maybe I could be getting better. But I may be getting worse with the horrors of physical suffering the specialist doctor would not tell me about still going to happen.
Be brave, Strephon, but strive to be relaxed and disciplined with how you eat, sleep, and handle things.











Dear Strephon,
Glad to read that you have normal energy again, both physical and mental. That matters, because it is here and now. Maybe you are getting better. One doesn’t know, but one certainly can wonder. Meanwhile, give thanks for the life one has and go on living it as well as possible.
Good living to you,
Arthur
