Dream

I had a dream last night that has stayed with me all day.

In the dream I was sleeping and began rising up as I slept, floating facing up about 3 or 4 feet. I was terrified, and tried to scream, but had no voice. I kept trying to scream, but could not make a sound, and in the dream I could feel my voice laboring to try to make a sound. In the dream, Patrick awoke and tried to grab me to pull me down, but could not get a grip on me. I kept floating up, and trying to scream, but made no sound. Then I woke up.

This dream was almost a half-dream because it seemed like I was partially awake during it, though I knew it was a dream once I woke up. It was disturbing, and I found it difficult to go back to sleep afterwards. It think it was around 3am-5am in the morning, sometime around there, but probably lasted for only a few minutes I am guessing.

I think sometimes dreams are there to tell us things, but we have limited tools to decipher them with.

You should ask my mom. She used to have a good time analyzing my dreams many years ago. Send her a link to your blog if she isn't already reading it. I think she could have a field day with this dream. It is definitely rich with symbolism. I hate those ones where you scream, but no sound comes out!

Just read this now. I'll ask Golda about it. Do you think she checks her FB at all? Maybe I'll send an email her way. Thanks.
