Let's dig a well together, then we'll fill it with all our dreams; Precious gems, secret treasure, a myriad of fantastical things.
So when reality gets caught in our throat, and we get that feeling like we can't breathe, we can just go out to the well that we've built. We'll never again go thirsty.
And if a nightmare slips in - attempting to poison our well - we'll just fish it out, and bury it in the backyard.
