Ok Thanks, It's just going to be dificult... One thing that makes it easier (at least it did for me) was to first eliminate what you don't believe or what you find objectible or dogmatic. For example, do you believe in your heart that Jesus will return and take up all those followers, including the ones who have already died, to live forever in a kingdom of worshipers? If not, you are not a fundamentalist Christian. If on the other hand you do believe in reincarnation, then you may be wise to look into some eastern religions such as Buddhism or Hinduism. This doesn't mean you have to follow the teachings of the religions to the letter, but take only those teachings you believe and accept. For example, I believe in the validity of the eight-fold path, but I dont' believe in reincarnation.

What you should do is what your heart and intuition tell you to do. Ask yourself some questions such as:
What spiritual path is me?
Is there one path for me?
Which spiritual or religious teachings do I believe in and which do I think are based on myth and dogma?
Once you figure out all these nuances, you're on your way to a new spiritual path.

Ok so in the dream, I am Jesus (Not Kidding) I was in some arab country I think and I had a quest. I had to do something...but I don't know what it was.. The dream is a bit hazy and that part (My Quest) is no coming to me. ;D Why WAS I JESUS?!?!?! *Twitch* Need some answers. The part about being Jesus I think is your life's spiritual journey. You are probably or have gone through the search for spiritual truth and have sought different religious beliefs and practices in that search. You've probably "tried on" different spiritual beliefs and denominations. In the dream, you "tried on" Jesus, hence being him for a while. The quest is part of that search for spiritual meaning---the one that fits you! You want to utilize your spiritual talents and gifts, but havent' found the right "fit" yet. You say, " I had to do something...but I don't know what it was.. " tells me you are still searching.

Oh yes, I see now. I missread it. That's never happened in my dreams that I recall. They just collapse or are on the verge of collapsing.
One thing in your dream that has in common with alot of mine is the combing of jobs. I'll be at one of my old jobs with either co-workers from my current job or another old job and we are working on something related to a third job.

In my dreams, whenever I dream of a floor collapsing, it always feels like a lack of security---like I'm "losing my footing" or I have no "strong foundation to stand on." I always have those dreams when I'm in a transition such as going to a new job or when I started community college.

This is the best summary of dream incubation I've read. Excellent. Easy, simple. That's the way I like things.

Have you considered holistic medicine? I have a friend that went into therapeutic touch. With a job on the side, classes can be affordable, as well as the equipment needed. Find out what the needs are and what is available in your area. Remember, the key to success is location. Just make sure once you have completed your schooling, you can find an area where your business will be profitable in the long term.
Good Luck!

The jobs you described are solitary in nature. So you could start there. My guess is that you are an introvert and would prefer to work with things rather than with people. You probably would not want to teach, be a nurse or doctor, lawyer, dentist, police officer, etc.
Instead, look for occupations that could put in touch with nature like the ones you described. There are lots of different fields for each of those jobs you mentioned.
If you are looking for temporary work to get you started for money, check out the temp agencies and let them know what you are interested in as far as what they offer. They offer both skilled and unskilled labor. In this case, you could go for a license to drive truck. That job too is solitary in nature and you could spend a lot of time on the road and seeing different locations. Or you could get a job mowing lawns for the summer. This will help get you on your way to getting technical training or classes at a local community college.
Good luck!

I saw What the bleep do we Know? The most interesting parts were about how the mind effects our physical well-being, even to the tiniest sub particle.

This is creepy too: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7a9Syi12RJoWhat exactly are they talking about? He mentions "rule of law." Whose law exactly? And isn't it interesting that daddy Bush just loves the United Nations, while today's right wing Republicans loath it? Perhaps this is what George W. Bush is trying to accomplish in Iraq. Let it be a history lesson to all future politicians. It can't work when you have poverty, tribalism, globalism, religious fundamentalism, nationalism, and power hungry bankers. If world powers want a "new world order," the only way to get it is not through "peace" and "prosperity" but through a military police state.

I wonder what it would be like for them to hear those things while eating something else. You grab a snack bar in church, rich chewy granola and suddenly the minister starts reciting the lords' prayer and realize, yech, these flavors don't mix.
