i dreamed i had a pet elephant
and i liked the elephant although i had concerns over what to do with it, where to put it, how to feed it. (thought never occurred to me about what to do about his crap)
and i was worrying that he may be hungry as i had not fed it.
when i woke up i had to say to myself- hmmm- is this a reflection of the "elephant in the room" situation? it was interesting to note that i remember how i "felt" for it- it was like compassion---except when i had to worry about feeding it---is this possibly how my relationship with my future ex-alcoholic husband really was. i DID like that elephant!!!
more poignant though is i did not think about all the "crap" he would be producing. Note to self-- need to remember the "crap"!!!!
