A MIGHTY GIANT ROAMED THE LAND, LEADING A ROARING RED DRAGON. NOT ONE IN MIGHT OR POWER, COULD BE FOUND TO TAME THE TERRIBLE TWO. ONE LITTLE BOY WITH TRUTH IN HIS HEART AND LOVE IN HIS CARE COULD BANISH THE TERRIBLE TWO. HE SLAYED THE GIANT WITH TRUTH AND TAMED THE DRAGON WITH LOVE.

‎”According to me, the function of the parents is not how to help the children grow. They will grow without you. Your function is to support, to nourish, to help what is already growing. Don´t give directions and don´t give ideals. Don´t tell them what is right and what is wrong — let them find it by their own experience.” Osho

At school this morning, I gave Dorje a hug and tonnes of kisses and said “I love you my special love heart”.

He looks at me and says “Please mum you can no longer do that at school!” FARK, it ripped my heart out but, it was inevitable

Dorje’s having fun in his dreams. His nocturnal exploits inspired me to attend a workshop on lucid dreaming, and while I haven’t been doing much lucid dreaming myself, Dorje seems to have been making up for my lack. Most still involve the fun task of fighting monsters, not at all scary anymore now that he can defeat them easily.

I’ve been encouraging him to make friends with the monsters, which he seems to have done, but he finds it more entertaining that not only can he defeat them easily, he can control the monsters.

I have visions of Dorje leading an array of fearsome beasts in a quickstep – not close to as much fun as what’s actually going on I’m sure.

I asked him how he became aware he was dreaming. The usual technique involves looking at one’s hands, and it will change in some way, making us realise we are dreaming, but Dorje did this once and his hand turned “evil”.

His technique is a first to me but quite ingenious – he looks at his fingerprints!

Seeing that I’m not having much chance to lucid dream myself, I’m subtly planting suggestions for him to try out – a classic case of a parent living their life through their child I suppose…
