Dreams

The last couple of weeks I have had a hard time writing about dreams and what they mean to me. I figured I would continue to use this as a topic, but in a different way. At first I wanted it to be about your hopes and dreams of your life, but now I want it to be about the dreams you have when you sleep at night. What do these dreams mean to you? Sometimes I feel like I can understand my dreams, but it's hard when I can't remember half of them. Throughout my life dreams have had an effect on my life. Whether they were nightmares when I was a kid, or they were feeling more real these days, I feel like they mean more then my mind putting together thoughts of my days. I feel like there is a deeper meaning to some of them, or course most of them don't make much sense to me. I can say I have had some weird experiences with my dreams. My dreams have ranged from dreaming about things that took place the very next day, to taking things out of my dream. I don't mean physical objects, just feelings. There is not much to say. I can't really prove if these dreams are a message or a warning or maybe they are just nothing at all. Here are some dreams I have had that left me with questions;

On August 15, 2009,
"I spent the day fighting inside of my head where I was going to go with my life. I was very excited to see my girlfriend Rachel S***** and I couldn't hold my excitement in. I went to work that morning and I worked a full shift, and when I came home I met her there where we decided to go out of the house. I remember thinking that something was wrong. The way she would look at me, and the way she would kiss me felt strange. We went out to a bar and she began drinking heavily which she never does, and she passed out. When she woke up we were at my step-fathers house, and I wasn't in the room, but could hear what she had to say. I was like a fly on the wall. She started to explain to him that she had to break up with me. He started to yell at her telling her that she was going to break my heart. The next memory I had was she being wasted grabbing my arm and pulling me out of the room, and telling me to go away." 
            When I woke up on August 16, 2009 I felt depressed, and a sadness that attacked me. I got up and I went to work where I worked all afternoon. I met with her and friends to go hang out and watch a movie, but something was wrong, just like the dream she began to act differently. When she would kiss me it had lost its love. Her attitude had changed quickly, she start to act out by making fun of me, and making feel like I didn’t belong. Long story short she dumped me that night. A couple days later I found out that she got drunk the night before and cheated on me. She told me that she dated me because of pity, and I never talked to her again. Whether that dream was a sign or not, it lined up pretty well to what happened. It has always been one of those dreams I didn’t know what to think of about it. A similar thing happened a couple years later.

On December 8, 2011,
“I was walking around my Church waiting for Rachel J**** to get done with her singing performance, and when she got off of the stage she walked right by me like she didn’t know me. I chased her down, but when I asked her what was wrong she disappeared. I spend most of the dream looking for her, but her memory had run away from me. I looked in my room at my house and I found a letter on my desk. When I picked it up there was nothing on it.”

On December 9, I woke up and when I went to my Facebook there was a long letter in my messages, and she had left me. I didn’t understand the dream until months later when our once friendship turned into nothing at all. She ran just like the dream. She treats me like she doesn’t know me anymore just like the dream. This was another sad dream that I wish never played out in real life. How come that when a relationship is about to end for me I have to dream about it before it happens? I would be lying if I said I didn’t miss either of these girls. I am no dream expert or anything. I don’t really understand what these dreams mean. It’s a sad way to see them last in a stupid dream, and not in person. In both cases these were my fears that came true. It scared me to think that my worst fears can come true. I eventually got over Rachel in 2009, but I am currently having a hard time accepting not having the other Rachel in my life. Back in 2009 I thought that maybe that dream is a sign from God, but I never had anything to prove that. 

Job 33:14-18 “For God speaks in one way, and in two, though man does not perceive it. In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men, while they slumber on their beds, then he opens the ears of men and terrifies them with warnings, that he may turn man aside from his deed and conceal pride from a man; he keeps back his soul from the pit, his life from perishing by the sword.”

Warning Sign to a Lost Connection

I'm losing a little bit of me inside. All of the breakdowns drive them to hide. I'm wandering around hoping to find something that will never be true. My mind is spinning away from me. I can't see what's in front of me. I tried to be someone else, but the pain doesn't go nowhere else. I WANT TO BREAK!! I want to fall to my knee's. I want to scream out loud. I can't take this anymore. I'm stuck in this hole, and there is nobody to dig me out. With my back up against the wall, I can't see my dreams when your standing in my way. I'm staring at the future begging for the past. I know the good times, but they don't ever last. I WANT TO BREAK!! I want to fall to the floor. I want to scream out loud. I don't think I can take this anymore! My heart is still beating, but my breathing is getting weaker with all of this weight on top of my chest. I keep on fighting these angels wrestling these demons to the ground. I keep on walking until I los...

The Weight

rain falls from the blackness in the sky, the water soaks the earth. here we stay a float, but slowly we are drowning. the mud grabs us by the ankles, pulling us into the ground. everyday is a struggle to move. With all of these days, we carry out this weight, walking closer to the pavement. we tippy toe across the marsh, crashing faster each time. crushed to our knees, our hearts slow to a beat. we question our strength, savoring every last drop, like the very last scotch. and at the end of the day, when the moon covers the view. your soft hand pressures, then squeeze’s these muscles and slowly cracks the bones, you push down upon me, I pray you don’t break me. With all the pain and agony, we continue to push forward, but we question our lives, always struggling to stand up straight. fearing our inevitable fate. carrying this horrible weight. Note; In all honesty this is about the world and the struggle to live, have faith in God, but the weight some t...

Where I Belong

It is such a marvelous light, This beautiful ray still shines during, The darkest part of the night. How selfish are we to take what isn't ours, We build on the beauty of your world. We take down trees and burn them to the ground. We turn what is rightfully yours into a wasteland. We dig until we can’t stand anymore, And we blame you for our mistakes. We are abusing what was once beautiful. I will follow your beauty to the edge, And when I know where you are, it is where I want to be. When I don’t know where you are, you are where I belong. Here I am breathing just to breathe, I am dreaming just to dream. So quick to take advantage of all you give me. Here I hurt because she has hurt me, And I bleed because he has cut me. I am so quick to blame everyone else. Here I am fearing just to fear him, I stay awake because I believe I am free, And do what I want because I think I have the control, But you’re the only one to put me in ...
