(Hey sorry if you see this posted down the list but can't click on it, I tried to post this last night when the Community Site decided to shut down, so it would not post the topic correctly, and it won't let me go in and delete those topics, so here is the official one)
Inspired by
the description of the deer totem, and based on an actual dream I had...
-------------------------------------------
"In meditation or day dream, go on a spiritual hike with the deer. See yourself walking in the woods with the deer leading you into amazing depths within your soul. Each step you and the deer take will lead you deeper into your spiritual knowing, and to limitless treasure within."
Chris came home from a long day of work. Finishing everything he needed to do for the night, he set his alarm clock for 6:00 and rested his head. The week hadn't been the best, and at times he had been doubting himself and wondering who he was.
He recalled a conversation he had with a coworker, who was part Native American. "Your favorite animal is your totem - your spiritual guide in life.", he said. Chris closed his eyes. He already thought of his favorite animal...someone in particular...
He opened his eyes and sat up. He wasn't in his bed but rather was laying on a path in the woods. He sat up and looked around - it seemed very real, maybe he slept walked outside.
He began to walk the path, hoping he would end up somewhere he knew, but the deeper he went, the more lost he was becoming. He finally decided to call out, and see if anyone would respond. "Hello? Anyone here?", he called.
Nearby, he heard something rustle. He took a step back as a figure appeared before him. "...Quad?", Chris asked.
