I remember an ephemeral fragment of a dream.

A feeling of purity pervades, like when we were children, [person A] and I are always enthusiastic about what we do together. It is like an adventure; [person A] insists on going somewhere and looking for something, and somehow the place feels like home to me. I think he’s searching for red paint, and [person B] is probably with us. I really enjoy seeing him doing what he loves and being free.

I dream that for some reason I have to wake up and disconnect the cord from the machine in the middle of the night. I realised I will have to restart the recording again and am about to do it and drink water.
