\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I almost always remember color in my dreams, as in my two recent posts, one being about a mystical unreal Los Angeles with everything lit up colorfully, or the one in Alaska with prismatic clouds.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I keep reading that most people dream in black and white.\u00a0 I wonder if this is really true or if most people just don’t remember the color in their dreams?\u00a0 I know I remember my dreams better than most.\u00a0 It’s rare for a night to go by where I don’t wake up remembering at least two or three significant dreams.\u00a0 That leads me to believe I just remember the color better than most as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 So how about you?\u00a0 Do you dream in c<\/span>o<\/span>l<\/span>o<\/span>r<\/span> or black-n-white, or do you remember?<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Or maybe I just like color.\u00a0 When I used to photograph with film, I NEVER shot <\/span>black-and-white film<\/span><\/span>, and that’s not to say I don’t appreciate the tones and patterns in a black and white photograph but I think I am more intrinsically attracted to color, brilliant, saturated, or subtle.\u00a0 Sometimes I can really enjoy subtle like the tones in faded old wood planks on an old building, or the subtle variations of color in a rock or the sky.\u00a0 Or the more brilliant colors of fall tree leaves.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I think it relates to my outlook on life.\u00a0 There are few issues I see as black and white, my Democratic liberal friends accuse me of being a conservative Republican, my Republic friends accuse me of being a radical liberal, a threat to the American Way, and I guess surely I am, or would be if I could actually affect change, because invading other countries, stealing their resources, and killing and mangling their population is something I’m against and if I could change it I would, but my inability to do so thus far leads me to think I’m not a big threat, as much as I would like to be.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
