I have taken the last several days off since I met my weekly and monthly goals for July, and I was tired! It's time to start thinking about August goals now though...

Last night I had an interesting storm dream (common theme for me). At one point, the twister took the shape of a scary ape-like creature and was terrorizing the person hiding next to me. The wind was terrifying and roaring all around me, and I was scared it was coming for me next. I told myself if it gets too intense I can just wake myself up. I then wondered for a moment if that was true. I decided to try to stay with the terror and see if I could survive it, which I did. The strange "storm" left me alone. It wasn't a lucid dream, but it still feels like progress. I've noticed a pattern over the last few weeks of standing up more confidently against negative DC.
