A Breath of Fresh Air: What Dreams May Come?
From a Fresh Air Interview today:
Terry Gross: {Avatar is so dreamlike} do you have an "active dream life?"
James Cameron: Yeah, a lot of Avatar came from dreams I've had.
His tone of voice was what got me - I used to dream vividly, and often, sometimes lucidly.
I have, up until recently (and I mean like, the last few weeks), lost almost all of my ability to dream coherently, almost to a point of not dreaming at all - since I've been coming out of my Long Funk and started practicing, and dreaming again, I notice how much I've been missing in my dream life which surely is a bridge to creative living.
JC sounded emotionally grateful, mortified at the possibility that he would not have a dream life, and gracefully suprised at the question - I hope he gave Terry a hug and a kiss after that one :)
I'm glad I hard this today because, it increases the amount of hope I feel as I move along...
