Dreams to Nightmares

I've been dreaming about fishing lately.  Maybe it's a subconscious yearning to be in nature and to unplug from the busy hustle and bustle of the city.  Lately, however, this peaceful, relaxing hobby in my dreams quickly turns into a lot of work.

To set the scene, we're on a big lake and the fish are biting really well.  I'm using a bait caster (not the normal spinning reel) and every time that I try to cast my lure, my reel ends up with a massive bird's nest.  After I spend a lot of time cleaning it up, I try re-casting-- only to have the same thing happen over and over.  No matter when I stop the flow of the cast, it always ends up a giant mess.  I'm serious when I say I can't stop dreaming about this.   When I wake up, I'm more tired then when I went to sleep because I've worked all night trying to fix the mess, instead of relaxing and having a good time fishing….weird, I know.  Who's a dream interpreter out there?  Any thoughts?

Wow, every time I listen to this song I choke up.  Does this song speak to you?  Is there some way that I can be praying for you?



If you're interested in the story behind this song, you can watch it here:
