Had a weird dream about an alarm clock ringing. It had a strange box-like portion on top with little windows with scenes and a peephole in the side. I spoke to a couple people who said something about a "chapter two" problem. I had my old denim shirt, the one with "Gimme Shelter" on the pocket, and it was unbuttoned. Father came for a surprise visit and I tried to button my shirt but couldn't because both sides had buttons and there were no button holes.
I have heard a lot about chapter two problems since I have been here. It is very deep, being the source of all sin, or original sin.
I tried to go back to sleep but was very uncomfortable. So I prayed and had an inspiration to write home. I wrote a pretty good letter, I think, but didn't mention Father or the UC but did mention Yankee Stadium. Then I went back to bed. When I got up I was completely bombed. It was such a change from being completely wide away before.
I had difficulty staying awake in lectures and was also fasting. The combination really spaced me out. Bob, the team leader, suggested I go outside and pray for seven minutes.
Father says Yankee Stadium may not seem significant, but it is. He compared it to a scale that is perfectly balanced between God and Satan. Yankee Stadium is like a penny. It may be small, but it can tip the scale to the side of God.
