| Actually living by the ethical standards that I've set for myself is turning out to be difficult.
For instance, I am a vegetarian. However everybody else in my family is a meat-eater. So yesterday, we went to Chris's parents' house for dinner. And his mom cooked a lovely dinner of pot roast and potatoes and carrots. And she roasted the potatoes and carrots in the meat juices. So, in order for me to have had any type of meal yesterday, I HAD to eat the meat-soaked veggies. Or eaten cubed cheese. for dinner. yum.
I don't buy cosmetic products from companies that use animal testing. The Body Shop used to be my go-to makeup store because they were so firmly against animal testing in every way. But now The Body Shop has been bought by L'Oreal who DOES test their makeup ingredients on animals which means I can't be too sure that the Body Shop makeup is still cruelty-free.
Leather and fur were a piece of cake to boycott. But do you know how difficult it is to find a nice warm winter sweater that DOESN'T have wool in it?
And I can't say that I'm TOTALLY against animal testing in the research/medical/pharmaceutical field; but I definitely don't support or like it. And because of that I don't take any prescription meds ever. But I do still take ibuprofen for headaches. So does that make me a hypocrite? | | |
| For the past two nights I've had vivid dreams about my teeth and babies.
Two nights ago, I dreamed that I found this really really tiny baby walking around. I stooped down and let her crawl into the palm of my hand so that I could take care of her. Then last night I dreamed that I actually had my own baby.
Both nights I dreamed that my one of my back teeth was falling out. I coud actually feel if coming loose away from my gums. It felt so real that I actually was checking my teeth when I woke up this morning.
To see a baby in your dream, signifies innocence, warmth and new beginnings. Babies may symbolize something in your own inner nature which is pure, vulnerable, and/or uncorrupted. Babies may represent an aspect of yourself that is vulnerable and helpless. To dream of an extremely small baby, symbolizes your helplessness and your fears of letting others become aware of your vulnerabilities and incompetence. You may be afraid to ask for help and as a result tend to take matters into your own hands.
One rationalization for a falling teeth dream may be rooted in your fear of being embarrassed or making a fool of yourself in some specific situation. These dreams are an over-exaggeration of your worries and anxiety. A scriptural interpretation for bad or falling teeth indicate that you are putting your faith, trust, and beliefs in what man thinks rather than in the word of God. The bible says that God speaks once, yea twice in a dream or a vision in order to hide pride from us, to keep us back from the pit, to open our ears (spiritually) and to instruct and correct us.
I'm still not positive about what significance these dreams have in my real life. I kind of think it's related to how overwhelmed I'm feeling at my job... | | |
