I’ve had so many wild dreams in the span of 24 hours. The following two dreams just happened while I was napping.
It was an eerie dusk and I had come off the train in my home neighborhood. I don’t know where I had come from (outside of town for sure) but I was there with about five other people who were strangers to me. There was supposed to be another train/transport waiting for us, but all we could see was a simple platform on rails that was carrying a pile of soil. It was pointed in the wrong direction anyway, so it wasn’t meant for us. There were two girls my age whom I was talking to, and it became apparent that we were saying goodbye. One of them gave me a long hug that felt like years of friendship with someone I had just met. She was blonde, skinny and very tall for a woman, almost my height. Pretty much a female copy of me, now that I think about it. When we were hugging, there was a small river behind me, and I knew if she pushed me I would slip and fall into the water. But she didn’t, and for a moment I felt incredibly safe. This is the kind of dream that carries a lot of emotional power but is difficult to convey.
The second one was more straightforward. I was in a theatre hall, my grandma and mother were also there but I was sitting separately. During the play, my grandma started talking loudly to my mother, and the people around her were disturbed. When she started speaking for the second time, an older man asked: “Do I have to smack you to shut you up?” I acted as if I didn’t know my grandma and told the guy: “Go ahead and smack her, then it’s dealt with.” I didn’t actually want my grandma to get hurt, I was only being provocative. The old guy looked at me, gave a crooked smile and repeated to himself: “...then it’s dealt with...heh.” When the entr’acte started, I quickly packed my things together - I had too many things with me in the hall, among them women’s underwear - while the audience was applauding. I knew I wouldn’t stay for the second act.
Last night I dreamt of a super interesting fantasy/mystery story but I have to ponder on it more, not going to write it here yet.
