Paco and I would like to suggest that readers of Dreams, Bones & the Future: Queries & Speculations (Vol 2) re-read the last 38 pages of text beginning with Q& S Twenty-Nine "The Triage of Risk in a Risky World" (p. 140). We feel this may provide a much-needed perspective as our everyday lives become impacted by the CVID-19 pandemic, the economic fallout, collective fear and panic, and unseen and unknown consequences that will unfold.

Here is a taste:

"The unknown future will always excite the psyche at its deepest levels. One of the ways of attending to the deep psyche’s process is to take up a deep recognition of the values of dreams. I have argued elsewhere that dreams are always about the future. It follows then, that when dreams are ignored, we are ignoring one of our richest resources in relating to the future—whatever the nature of that future will be. Like so many realities that get ignored that will bring us greater harm, we must realize, at some point, that ignoring our dreams may be the costliest mistake of all." (p. 147)
