3…number 3…
Agh!! I promised myself I would just write a blog about music and be on my way, but I can’t, this dream keeps bothering me. Last night my dream was somewhat uneventful. I was younger (teen), attending a prep school with all the normal social dramas a teenager faces. I played soccer of the American variety. When I woke up (just before I was about to win the game, damn it), it hit me, the number “3″ was everywhere! It was the reason we won the game the, my player number, the bus, the day, etc. etc. So instead of following my own rule about not “over analyzing”. That’s exactly what I started to do. I came up with some small leads or what have you, but nothing that points to the true meaning behind the gross over play of the number “3″. So I am going to list some possible reasons and then stop, before I become Jim Carey in the movie, “The Number 23″. Plus I am horrible at math, so that union of creativity would never work.

The number three appears to have it’s roots deep into religious and historical document. None that strike me as having ultimate significance but then again I am perhaps least spiritual person I know, possibly could be a calling? Maybe, but there are too many to list. You can reference them yourself. (Wikipeida Reference, “Number 3″)

As much as I avoid referring to these “dream dictionaries”, because they are honestly about as accurate as slamming my head into the wall several times over, I had to take a chance this one time. Most of them referred back to “the trinity”. I don’t really like to assume that God has so much time on his hands that he would take party in my minor soccer/prep-school/teenage flash-back dream. Although I did find one blurb interesting, “Three = The trinity. All 3 levels of the mind. A completion of creation. The solution of the conflict between the one and the two.”. A solution, hmm? Perhaps a dream-blog? Ha. That’s shameless self promotion at it’s finest.

Vices: In Buddhism: the three roots of evil namely greed, hatred and delusion. All of which normally invade my dreams. Perhaps this tame dream wasn’t all that tame after all. Underlying urges? It probably makes the most sense of all of them. Ironically enough, is number “3″ in my list.
And now I am starting to approach that “breech” between sanity and crazy. So that is the end of that.
Sweet dreams.
I find it impossible to write a blog about one topic. Mine was originally set to be my thoughts and ramblings, but I find myself going back and retelling some stories of my past now. I figure why limit what we can and cannot write about?
As for the dream, I sometimes wonder how much dreams really tell us about our lives. It could be that you heard something on the radio, or saw something on TV that just put the number three in your head. Sometimes dreams are just nonsense, you brain relaxing after a long, hard day.
