It is appropriate time to make some plans for the future and it is time to be happy. I have read this post and if I could I wish to suggest you some interesting things or tips. Perhaps you can write next articles referring to this article. I want to read even more things about it!

What I’m interested in is a book about dreams. Not what they mean, but how they’re formed/created. Like for example, when someone in my dream is really witty, is that wit actually coming from my subconscious, or is it something I picked up along the way from someone else and it plants itself into my dream? I’m particularly interested in art. For example, I have had dreams where someone is reading aloud from a really lovely book. Is this a book I’ve read and don’t remember? Or is my brain making it all up? Sometimes it’s very, very good writing. or sometimes someone will sing a song. Is it a real song I’ve got imprinted on my brain somehow? Or is this dream person creating it? And if I have the ability to write books and songs in my dreams, how can I tap into this? Or can I?

Lauren,
When I was a junior in college, I signed up for the History of Western Civilization. Being from Oregon, I thought it was going to be a class all about the west…how it was won, etc. Haha! Boy, was I surprised! It was a great class at least!

Thanks for the replies, everyone! I’m off to buy the Kurlansky book now.

And I can’t help thinking that perhaps what I’d really like is a big wall chart chronology. Maybe a history one and a literary influence one, with big enough type that if I put them on the empty wall right in front of my desk, I’d eventually learn them as I stare off into the distance while pondering my blog entries!

It’s certainly the best way for ME to learn it! Only problem is that you’ve got to have a reliable source to say, “Well, not exactly like that…”

Oh, thanks for giving me the benefit of the doubt, Kristin! But no, it was just all kinds of wrong. It’s not so much that I THOUGHT that, exactly, so much as I said something that would only have made sense if it were true. I hadn’t really reasoned it through, and I’m sure if I’d have tried to work it out, I’d have known the Ancient Greeks predate the New Testament. At least I hope I would have–BC versus AD makes that pretty clear. It was more that in my brain I was thinking “very olden times” and “very olden times” without actually having any easily recollected chronology in my head. I think I’ve done the same with the Greeks and Romans at times. Both are just sort of way back when to me.

And coincidentally, I’m almost sure it came up specifically in terms of literary influence. I think I alleged that some mythology was ripping off the Bible, when it was clearly the other way around. If you find out what that book is, do tell me, because I’d like that, too!

That does sound great! Glad someone here found a match of the perfect book for the thing they’ve been wondering about!
