Life Update?/Weird Dream

So, I had some vocal issues about two years ago and a chronic sinus infection sort of brought back some minor issues. I have a little tremor now that I didn’t used to have, but it’s going away slowly - thank goodness. My lower register is completely unaffected now, but my upper register (C5#- F5) is still sort of spotty/missing. But, each day is an improvement and I’m happy for that.

Anyway, that’s important to understanding this dream I had the other night. I’ve been itching to write it down because it was kind of sweet.

So, in my dream, I was frustrated because my voice warm ups weren’t going the way I wanted them to. (Usually the beginning of either a long ass day and/or a nightmare.) However, as I was like panting for air ready to give it another go because perfection is key - one of the Fraggles (I think it was Wembley?) pops out of my bathroom wall because DREAM LOGIC! Anyway, he asks what I’m doing. I’m sort of frustrated at this point, but I mentioned that my voice sucked now and everything was awful. I should never sing again ever because I’m terrible.

Obviously shocked, Wembley said I wasn’t terrible and that singing is an important part of expressing yourself. He said that Cantus would know if I was really a bad singer and that I should follow him. So, I did. Somehow, (Dream Logic) I fit into the Fraggle Caves and walked down with Wembley to Fraggle Rock where Cantus was visiting.

Cantus looks at me and says that he knows me. He knows I’ve struggled hard to get my former students to “listen” to “their songs” and “sing them.” He told me that my voice is still lovely and still a gift and many moons from now other children will benefit from it. But, for now, I get to listen and enjoy music for the gift it is. He said that there is nothing wrong with a little rest and time to slow down amidst the play and fun of daily life.

We sang a song together (sadly don’t remember the words/which song from the show). And, then Mokey found out I wrote poetry. Then, I woke up.

Anyway, not sure if there are any Fraggle fans that follow me. But, it was a fun dream and I wanted to share.

.+:｡(ﾉ･ω･)ﾉﾞconvincin john, eh?

once there were two fraggle brothers, hatched from the same song egg.  

one was a wembler.  he never knew what he wanted to do with his life, and he spent most of his time following his brother around.

his brother was a convincer.  he had a confident demeanor and a melodious voice and he could convince any fraggle of anything- except for this brother.  though immune to his powers, the wembler loved him and helped him with his schemes- in truth- were not the kindest.  he would play jokes on creatures underground and use his convincing powers to get things he didn’t really need.

the fraggles became wise to his convincing powers and banished him, not just from the rock, but from all of the underground.  his wembler brother went with him because he of all people loved his brother and saw that he actually was a good person.

the brothers spent many years traveling in the world the fraggles call ‘outer space’.  they learned about alien customs and vocabulary.  but the more the convincer saw of the pain in outer space, the less he wanted to abandon his old ways and make people happy instead.  meanwhile the wembler’s discover his own power of convincing, which he thought he’d use to make people’s lives better.

they returned to the underground, but not to the rock.  the convincer set off on a mission of music and friendship, to bring song and peace and love to the creatures of the underground.  eventually creatures joined him in his mission, and he would later return to the rock, unrecognizable.  he was still a jokester at heart, though his games of misdirection were harmless this time.

the wembler returned to the rock and tried to use his convincing to make people’s lives better, but the fraggles still distrusted the gift.  he retired to a cave just outside of the rock with his three new girlfriends, and decided that he’d stay away until called upon.  he was still a wembler at heart, which made him a stronger convincer even than his brother.

John could never convince Cantus, though.
