Teaser: A dream about a bus with no destination… and what it means to trust the road before you know where it leads.
Description: Miki reads "The Bus Dream" — an unpublished short story about a dream that arrived mid-transition, mid-uncertainty, and taught her something she couldn't have learned any other way. This episode unpacks self-trust, Right View, and impermanence through the lens of a bus ride that ends a thousand miles from home, and asks: what does it actually feel like, in the body, to trust something you can't yet see the end of?
