Mr Eames
I realise "I've kicked around" sounds evasive but I have my reasons for being private. So: I was raised in Scotland--mostly the Hebrides--spent my high school and university years split between the Capital and kicking around Europe with my foster-father, and I've been back in the Capital, and here, since he died earlier this year.
I keep talking about it like it's a dream, and it does compare to some [...] I guess lucid dreaming? [...] but it reminded me at least as much of what I know of shamanic experiences. Except neither lucid dreaming nor the usual shamanic experience involves the physical body quite the way this seems to.
Most of the time you don't find yourself stumbling out of the cave [...] train station.
