This is probably boring to a lot of you out there, but I've had a few recurring themes in my dreams for the past few years, and one of them popped up again last night. I don't know what to make of them.

Water plays an important part in many of my dreams - usually flowing water, though sometimes the rivers are dammed and I'm headed towards a resevoir. SOmetimes, I'm looking for a particular ocean shore or beach (not one I'm familiar with, just one I am determined to locate in the dream).

You would not believe the number of dreams I've had about busses - usually looking for a particular route, or looking for the proper busstop.

The theme in my dream last night had to do with riding in a bus, but that wasn't the part that stood out in the dream for me. What was significant was the lengthly descent down a very steep hill. I get that a lot - a sense of vertigo due to a particularly steep decent while riding in (or driving) a vehicle. Every now and then, there is also the great climb, uphill for miles. And I mean dozens, if not hundreds, of miles.

I wouldn't even think twice about any of this, except that these things happen a lot - almost every week I have one of these themes in a dream. Whaddaya think?
