ותאמר רות אל תפגעי בי לעזבך לשוב מאחריך כי אל אשר תלכי אלך ובאשר תליני אלין עמך עמי ואלהיך אלהי׃
Y Rut respondió: No me ruegues que te deje, y que me aparte de ti: porque donde quiera que tú fueres, iré yo; y donde quiera que vivieres, viviré. Tu pueblo será mi pueblo, y tu Dios mi Dios.
And Ruth said, Intreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee for whither thou goest, I will go and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God.
After observing this for some time myself, I became jealous of their relationship. Since Nolan left for California for his comic book festival, "Comicon", my options were limited in a partner for myself. (Why I didn't think of becoming Siamese Twins with anyone outside of my apartment, I don't know.) I finally decided to take the oath with my computer chair...
For the rest of my dream I was glued to my chair, scooting here and there in order to use the restroom or grab a bowl of cereal. Bored out of my mind, I thought many times about breaking my oath with my black cloth, executive-style office chair--but I didn't.
The rustling of roommates outside my (open-doored) room eventually woke me up around 11am. Believe me, I had a fascinating scripture study this morning. I read the entire book of Ruth and spent some time cross-referencing.

DREAM
Last night I dreamt that my roommates Dan and Chen had become "Siamese Twins". They had taken same oath that Ruth made with Naomi in the OT. However, Chen must have misinterpreted the verse because he took it quite literally: Anywhere Dan went, he went. Where Dan sat down, Chen sat on his lap.

Hs ha, how funny. I loved the racing computer chair photo. :)
ReplyDeleteVery interesting dream. Looking for someone to be a Siamese twin with implies that you are thinking about finding someone to share your life with, intimately. To go where you go, do what you do. Frustrated at not finding the right girl, you turn to work (symbolized by the office chair). You are extremely loyal and keep your promises. Great dream buddy.
ReplyDeleteThat was fun to read your roommates dreams as well-in their own voices even! Love that racing office chair! Why didn't we ever think to dress as Siamese twins for a party?! We had the pants already, goodness knows!
