Swiss Cheese

Swiss cheese — solid but full of holes — often touches coming into substantial property and enjoying healthful amusements. The dream may ask where something nourishing is making its way to you, and whether you can savour the wholesome pleasures arriving, taking the good with its small gaps rather than fixating on what's missing.
