I find The Thought Lion from The Jim Henson Hour to be a rather depressing character. Are you ready to find out why!? The night of YSK's death rumor a month or so ago, I had a dream that I was sitting at my computer screen when all of a sudden I turned around and that white lion was standing right behind me. It talked to me in a way that sounded familiar through it's use of words and attitude towards certain topics but I could not figure out where I'd heard such a similar tone of speech before until a profound hit me. That lion who randomly appeared to me was YSK's angel being reincarnated as a beautiful white lion. I then hugged the lion YSK as I cried and she comforted me. After a while, the lion said to me,

"Remember, I may be gone but I will always live on in your dreams," as she proceeded to disappear majestically. I don't know why that happened in my dream but I assume it involves the character's name, The Thought Lion. A lion who can only be seen in your dreams. Now looking back at that dream, I question everything about it. Why was YSK reincarnated as a lion (much less a Muppet lion of all things?), why did she just randomly pop up in my room for no reason, and how was she able to teleport herself out of my room Star Trek-style at the end of the dream. None of it makes sense whatsoever but here's my theory:I was grieving over YSK's alleged death at the time and Muppets are something I've always used a tool to help myself feel better when I'm depressed. Watching The Muppet Show, Fraggle Rock, and other similar things has been my form of anti depressants for as long as I can remember. Maybe that dream was just my subconscious mind using something I like and often use to cope with stressful situations as a way to comfort me or something like that. I dunno, but that's probably not the case at all. It was probably just some bizarre dream with no deeper meaning whatsoever.
