Paradise (Where is it now?)

DT writes: "My wife, Susan, as a child dreamed of past relatives, whom she never met, but recognized from pictures later shown to her by her parents." -This statement is rather vague, as all these sorts of stories are. Could you be more explicit as to what it was she "dreamed of past relatives". Did she dream their names, or just what they looked like, or some events that happened to them? And why did she think they were "past relatives"? The obvious interpretaion to be put on this experience is that the dream was re-remembered, reinterpreted, reconfigured, not deliberately, but as a normal activity of one's mind, to fit with the new evidence.
