well cared for house plants

I’m on my way to somewhere but before i go i think i should water my plants. There are a lot of plants on a big table. Most of them appear healthy and in no need of watering but a couple of small plants are dry so i water just those. I go into the living room (this is my VA house) and there’s a pot with a big plant in it. There’s smaller plants mixed in with the big one and they are all grown together and look nice. It is very healthy and bushy so i just spray it with a misting bottle to refresh it a bit. I go into the kitchen to see if there are any plants in there that need to be watered. At the counter i see somebody has left out sandwich fixings and i decide to make myself a sandwich. I put my ipod on to play Neil Young. It’s a song i really like and begin to sing along loudly. I notice that the battery is almost completely drained so i take it to the living room and switch it out for my other ipod. I plug the drained ipod in to charge and turn the charged one on to put the Neil Young song back on. I see that this ipod’s battery is in the red also and i’m surprised because i was sure it was fully charged. As i watch, the red indicator turns green and fills up the battery icon. Singing loudly along to the radio, i return to the kitchen to resume making my sandwich.

Strawberry Fields brought me back to 'now'. The phrase from the song Little Feat song Willin’ “and if you give me…. WEEEEEEED, whites and wine and you show me a SIGN….” is playing in my head and i can’t remember what Neil Young song i was listening to. Are You Ready For the Country? Down By The River? Can’t remember.

The plants looked very healthy. Sometimes when i have that kind of dream the plants are all dried out and dying because i’ve forgotten to water them for so long. I think that plants are symbolic of some aspect of my nature. Soul? Imagination? Inner well being of some kind. The fact that they were all healthy and green in this dream might suggest that i’m living in good balance right now maybe. If i think about it, i guess my mind does feel pretty lush and healthy.
