Puzzle Description:

I used to draw this scene over and over...a sunset between two hills, a road leading between the hills and a phone booth on the left side of the road. Now, what does that say of me psychologically?

No idea, but I loved the puzzle.

wishing to escape and asking for help?

I like Claudia's explanation. Or, you could be watching too much Dr. Who.

the more important question is why did you stop (until now)
haha

Cool puzzle

wanting to explore the world but wanting to stay in touch with home?

Ooooh, I love to analyze things like this.

LOL @ Ellen's comment (too much Dr. Who) and @ Bugaboo's comment (why did you stop)

It's pretty obvious that the road is your life, and since it's a sunset, you are looking at your future rather than your past. What that road means can only be interpreted by you. Straight and narrow? Well paved? Lonely? The telephone booth is very close, seems like an invitation to engage in communication with someone.

If this were a dream, you would most likely be in a vehicle. Do you imagine yourself in a vehicle? That part is VERY significant, but since it's not depicted or described, I will say no more.

The fact that you drew this over and over when you were younger indicates you perhaps had some anxiety or concern about your future - where will your road lead you? If you don't draw it anymore, maybe you don't worry about that anymore.

From a psychological perspective, I would guess the greenery is good, denoting healthy growth, but you really can't see what's ahead. That always bothers me about the future, I just can't see what's around the next bend. It's probably better that we don't know. :-)

That phone booth still bothers me - very significant. So what does that mean to YOU, Robert? If you really want to analyze it, a psychologist might suggest you describe the scene in more details. Then go back and look at your description, word by word, and write down a feeling or idea or memory you associate with each word or phrase. It's a very interesting exercise. Tell us what you discover, if you do this, if you are so inclined. :-)

Well, now that this puzzle is back on the home page, perhaps we can see where Shmily has progressed in the dream interpretation.

Very impressive Teresa!
