Anthony,

I'm still trying to let all of this sink in. I'm glad I did post. I thought I was nuts when I had this dream. Its almost exactly as you put it. I felt trapped too. But I couldn't see anything but this swirling of me. Every part of my being now, swirling with this other personality that knows all. All of the reality that I know nothing of.

It just occurred to me why I might have been even more horrified than I should have been. I've always been afraid of developing multiple personalities. I think that added to my fear. Although, the fear of realizing that what we see is only a small part of what really is, is scary enough.

I'm now afraid of the dark. I know it sounds silly. Its so strange, because before this dream I was actually getting very comfortable with the dark. Now, if the room is pitch black I'm afraid of what I might see. Or perhaps, afraid of what reality I might see.

But now that I'm learning more about this, I'll be able to become less afraid. I think it was mostly the initial shock of this world, this reality we have before us now, isn't exactly what it seems. You know? That in a sense, my world crumbled before my eyes. Now I have to be open to these new facts.

Something I don't understand is why. Why were we giving this insight to this "other" reality? Insight to the fact that there is another part of us "filtering" what we perceive? I mean, I know we don't see everything. That we only choose to see certain things, we only see a limited reality. But why were we given the chance to actually see this? To know that without a doubt, its true. Why were we shown the great and wonderful Oz? Any ideas?

Love,
