VISION'S OR DREAM'S - A Journey To The Spirit World
VISION'S OR DREAM'S-A Journey To The Spirit World(PRT2)
The difference between a dream and vision can be complicated, or better yet easily misinterpreted. Some believe dreams tend to be more associated with the past and present, as visions lift the curtain to reveal the future. Although forgetting, sometimes dreams and visions come in similar forms, thus leading to the confusion. A vision may come in the form of a happy hunting ground, reuniting around the great fire with family and friends, or as Calvary charging down on your tribe. To fully understand and absorb the power of a vision, one must purge the need to find a answer.
I feel it is safe to say that most people have had a vision. Do they understand that it was in fact a 'vision'? That is the question. A vision can be compared to a dream, it feels similar and is often about the same concerns.One must focus more on what has been communicated in their vision and less on what you want to see/hear. True visions are closer to real events, if you make your own history, you will eventually repeat that history. A vision is a sneak preview and is not set in stone.

WAGON'S HO
Back then, the folks of the west would not go anywhere without bringing weapons, where today it could cost you some heavy jail time. Most of the people on the "road" then, had to hunt and prepare their own food where as today, we have a Dennys every 10 miles. This would create a problem for everyday folk of today, but back then it was a daily ritual. Food was a scarce item for them, so competition for it in the open country could lead to trouble. Many on long trips across the plains of the southern states, would often find themselves confronted by hostiles/thieves of all kinds whom would steal their food, take their weapons, and cash leaving them only a bucket to 'do stuff' in. This also, could have serious effects on human life.
All in all, I think that the way they traveled in that time period 'paved the way' for us modern folk. If you really look at it through the eyes of the men and women that did what they had to do in order to survive, to them it was just everyday life. Most of the people today have a hard time respecting these mens' and womens' hardships, for if they do not have a brand new SUV they are looked at as being "under achievers". Unlike all, some of us are just as happy driving around in that same old 1969 rusty mustang, for it takes us to where we need to be.
In the time before time, travel was a challenge not a leisure activity. These days the trail is just as long but made of asphalt, concrete and steel. It is traveled by tribes of a new breed, on horses with names like Ford, Chevrolet and Honda. The time spent setting up camp is now spent at diners, rest stops or local attractions. The long treacherous road now smoothed over.
The spirit of striking off into the unknown is still alive, bringing with it sensation's of freedom and danger. Although still looked at as an adventure, it should be compared to viewing wild exotic animals at the zoo. There eye's showing the loss of their killer instinct.
Now some would like to say that things have changed for the better over time and that we have come a long way from outhouse's and saloon's. But can one really grasp the full understanding of a lifestyle without experiencing it firsthand. I have to admit, the thought of a journey through hostile Indian country, sounds better with a car.
