My Subconscious, Funny

So I took my little nap and I had a dream. It kind of put things in perspective for me. Here is the dream:

Me and kota had gone shopping to this big warehouse place. I bought a huge bag of dog food, cat food and other items that I don't remember now. The whole time I was shopping, kota was running around befriending all the employees. There was even one guy who came and helped me shop because kota had befriended him. Ok, so we run into my daughter while shopping. We are leaving the store with my daughter and my car has a flat tire. So we get in daughters car with her. I ask her if she can take us home. She says no because she had other plans. I looked at her funny and said, well I guess me and kota can walk home. (we are about 20 miles from home). she looks at me and says happily, are you sure? So we get out of her car and I am steaming mad that daughter would not take us home. Plus I have to carry the big bags of animal food! We find a shopping center and I asked this one store if I can use their phone to call a taxi. And thats where the dream ended.

Now first of all, daughter would never in a million years do that. She would do anything in her power to get me and her little brother home safely. So I think the dream was telling me, I really do have alot to be thankful for. I do have people in my life that I can count on when the chips are down. In fact, I talked to two of those people on the phone this morning. I just feel bad that I didn't let her know I was feeling down. No, brave me has to pretend that I am ok and not let anyone know I am having a bad day. more like stupid me!

Its good to laugh at yourself when you know you are being stupid. I was feeling like the world was so bleak and that I was to blame for everything. And then my dream reminded me there are people out there who care about me.

It's nice when your dreams tell you exactly what you need to know, and help you put it all into perspective.

Dreams do give us messages. It's always wise to listen to the messages. It's easy to try to cover up our feelings, but they do come out in the end. Not stupid at all... Take care.

I wish that I knew, Mary. But I always think, "I don't need people...people nee ME!" But I think that we're both getting there, aren't we?

Oh Mary...I'm so sorry that you were feeling bleak at all!I'm like you...when I'm feeling down, I retreat and don't share, even though it's the time that I should be sharing the most. I'm glad to read that you're feeling better and that a dream of being grateful brought that on.

It was a hard lesson but I learned a long time ago you have to tell people you are hurting and there is no shame in doing that or asking for help 'to carry the bags'!

Aha! I read and cmmented on your 'previous' post, before I read this one . . . I think I was correct in what I was saying there

Not sure about this, Mary. There are obviously somewhere inside of you feelings that she would desert you maybe, not leaving you and Kota to walk home, trust me, but somehow. I always know that dreams are an indicator of something going on inside. You do have people who love you! You're blessed beyond measure, but we all experience feelings of "rejection" occasionally. I loved my dad, but when he re-married after my mom died, he definitely deserted me. You never know. It might be something you just need to think and pray about. Love you

I don't think you were being stupid at all.
I think your dream also signifies the weight of that which you bear, ya know? The heavy bags, the long trek home, no help...
Just my opinion... I am glad your spirits are lifted though!

lol you 'do' have some wild dreams. what made me laugh is listening to this post with the Al-capone accent on tts, it was like I was imagining him standing there with a glare on his face when your daughter said no to a ride home ..
I have dreams like that, they make you feel mad for a while even when you've been awake for a while, but don't sweat, it's only a dream.
But you are right, you have lots of people who care for you deeply. I love you to bits, everyday I have to read what you have been up too, your a family member across the pond that I must check in on. I wish you lovely dreams tonight Mary
