"Old Place, New People"
This week I had a dream that I was in my grandmother and grandfather’s house that they used to live in a long time ago. I remembered where everything was in the house and what was in it. The weird thing about this dream though was that with me in the house were some of my friends that I had not known when they lived in that house. We all were there for a big party and were having a great time; it was just really odd that I was in that house again with people that I’ve only known for a short time. While I was there, I saw my friend’s sister who I haven’t gotten along with in the past and we were totally fine and she was actually really nice to me. She was polite and kept on helping me with everything for the party and gave me a hug goodbye. It wasn’t a very interesting dream it was just really weird to be in that house again with new people in my life.
"confused"
in this dream i have learned a lot about myself. this was probably the worst dream because of how it made me feel. it tore me up inside, and i felt as if i were dieng. it all started with me crying to my mother about a habit that was in my boyfriend. i told her how much i despised him for it, and that i wanted to throw him out of my life, because i was not able to forgive him for it. as i am telling her how i feel, my mother starts to cry as well, and tells me that she is with me. the news of his habit spreads from me and my mother to all my relatives. everyone is in shock about what he did. everyone takes my side, and shuns him into a corner. he is treated like a dog, thrown to one side, with no respect, care, or love from even one person. meanwhile i start to feel good that i got this problem out of my life, and that my boyfriend is gone forever. my aunts and uncles and cousins are all consoling me and caring for me. after a while i start to feel lost and confused, and hurt. i don't want to shun him out of my life. i hate him for what he did but i am not able to throw him out, and see him being disrespected the way everyone is treating him. i feel sooo torn up inside, i cannot even explain the feeling. it is like you are being tugged both ways, not sure what to do. i cry and debate on what to do. should i forgive him? should i leave him? should i let him be disrespected? at the end i realize that i cannot live without him, and that i do have the heart to forgive him, even though i was really hurt. i realize the love i have for him is greater than anythign in the world. in the end i hug him and tell him i love him and i decide to forgive him. than the dream ends. this dream proves that the unconcious part of your mind trys to figure things out while dreaming. this one dream made my decision for me, before i made the biggest mistake of my life. this dream saved me.
Nina,
That is amazing that your dream helped you figure out what you should do. I also agree with you on following your heart and doing what you feel is right no matter how others feel. You are the one who is spending your life with him not everyone else. Definitely continue to follow your heart and dreams because they seem to lead you somewhere.
Strange Confrontation
In my dream, I am talking with my best about random things. All I remember is that we are talking about a girl that I used to be really good friend with and during this talk we are discussin the aspects of what makes a good friend and how I should trust the people that actually there for me. This turns out weird when the girl we were talking about walks through the door and is cryign her eyes out saying how she misses me being her friend when she was the one who stopped talking to me. I believe my dream is trying to tell me something that I miss but I'm not quite sure of what it is, but after she leaves my friend and I continue our conversation this time talking about my dad. The weird part is the next day after he called. I found this dream weird because I have never had anything like it. I'm not sure what to think.
"no shoes"
this week i had a dream that i was back in elementry school and walking the halls. all of a sudden when i looked down, i wasn't wearing any shoes. I was the only kid in the entire school that wasn't wearing any shoes, and i couldn't find them anywhere. Then i woke up

your dream is telling you something. in your dream you saw your friend return, maybe it was you who still missed her unconciously and never really realized it. maybe you were upset that she stopped talking to u. i think you projected some of your own feelings on to her. think deeply about it, do u still miss her? do u wish she would come back? i think somewhere deep down u still do. and talking about your father, when you just spoke to him the day before is just ur brain filtering through the memories. i have had plenty of dreams in which i dream of things that happened during the day, or things that i plan on doing the next day, i see myself doing in my dream.
A reply to "No Shoes":
Tell us more...this looks like a condensation example. However, what do shoes represent in this dream? Why do you think you were the only kid on school without shoes? What emotion did you feel when you "woke up"?

This past weeks dream was a little strange...I was at a family party but everything was in black and white. For some reason my aunt (who is "that relative" that everyone has but no one really likes) made everyone introduce themselves like it was the first time we'd ever met each other. Then suddenly my moms friend and her 3 boys showed up there...but everyone already knew them.
"Family"
I had a dream that I drove to CT, to visit my older sister.She just had a baby by the way. On the way there, a huge thunderstorm prevented me from driving all the way. So in the middle of the ride there, I turn around and go back to campus.
"Tell or not to tell"
This was SUCH a scary dream. At home there are me and 3 other girls that are best friends. Theres this kid named mike who is the son of our good family friends. In my dream two of the girls killed mike. They drown him in water and then pulled him out and he was dead. They came to find me and the other girl and we had to help them hid the evidence. It was horrible. I remember taking him to the nearest park and we burried him 2 feet under the ground and it was right near benches and a basketball court. I kept telling the 2 girls that they had to go and report this because if not and we got caught we'd be in so much trouble. They wouldnt do it. They were too scared so I was freaking out because I thought I was going to go to jail. Then we were sitting on the benches right near where we burried mike and some creepy guy came over to us. We started to run but he stole my cell phone and started chasing us. He chased us into a convienent store and started throwing gallons of milk at us. We then ran out and ran all the way back to one of the girls house. We didnt know what to do. I finally had had enough. I gave the girls till 4pm to fess up and it was only 12pm. Once 4pm rolled around they still wouldnt do it. They convinced me to not say anything and that no one would ever find the body because we burried it pretty deep. I remember a dog going over to the dirt where the body was burried and right then a cop car driving near and then I woke up. I dont know why but I keep having wicked scary dreams.
"Short"
I had a dream the other night that was very short. I swear it was a 5 minute dream and all I can rememeber of the dream is that "my relative" ( and when I say my relative is that relative you have but you no longer get along with, see or speak to that much for personal reasons) Was there and I confronted her about being the way she is aand I told her to leave us alone and no longer be in out lives and all I can remember her saying is "never" Its weird because I never have "in real life" stood up to her and told her to leave so maybe its a way of telling me that maybe my time is coming where i need to stand up for myself against her or to other people that I need to stand up against.
Odd Dream
I had one very odd dream, I was at my summer house for a weekend and while I'm unloading my stuff I notice in the house I notice a dog is in there and I chase it out of the house. I then realize theres a broken window where it came in, just as I reach the broken window, I wake up.
"Road Trip"
This weeks dream was with me and a couple of my buddies going on a road trip that we have actually been talking about in real life. But in the dream we just start driving and make lots of stops that we all want to go to different place. We finally end up at some beech not really sure where. And then i wake up form my dream.
"Possible Insecurity"
I was hanging out with one of my friends and she seemed to be extremely skinny and fit. In reality this is not so. When I looked at her I was so jealous. she seemed to show it off even more knowing that it bothered me so much. I honestly have no idea where this dream came from in respect to that particular friend of mine being the one in there, but I do think it has to do with my own insecurities about myself.
In response to the "Old Place, New People"...did that house have any particular special meaning for you?
If you were/are close with your grandparents, maybe you are trying to share that connection or good feeling that house brings with those friends close to you in your present life... or maybe that house is symbol for your "good place" with "good people."
"Witches"
I dreamed that a red headed witch was walking down the hallway in my house towards my room. i was laying in my bed. i could hear her footsteps getting closer and closer. i ran out of my room to my parents room, and the whitch tried to grab me, but i ran through her as if she was invisible or magic or something. when i ran into my parents room, the witch was crawling on the floor after me, and two more witches jumped out of the closet! then they flew out of the chimney!
"Police and Trains"
I am at a cape house with my mom and some other people. We all decide that we want to go swimming at the indoor pool down the street. My friend Kate and I head up to the pool and when we get there I realize I forgot my bathing suit. I run back down to the house and my friend MaryLynn says to follow her to the store. The store is right next to our cape house and is a little convenience shop owned by Bates (the equipment manager here). Me and Mar see a bunch of candy we want so Mar starts putting some of it into her purse. She looks at me and walks out and waits for me outside. I grab a Reese Sticks and put it in the waist band of my sweatpants. When I turn to walk out, I see a police woman waiting in line to check out. I get really nervous and put the candy bar back and leave. When I get outside, the area looks like Town Park in Milford. A creepy looking guy comes up to me and says he saw me leave the store nervously when I saw the police woman. My friend Kate suddenly reappears and asks if we can go up to Brookside elementary to go swimming now. We start to walk away from the creepy man but he kicks me on the ground and puts his foot on my head and says I have to go with him. I feel scared and all of a sudden a basketball hits him in the back of the head. A kid named Kevin starts yelling at the man to leave us alone and to let me go. I get up and Kate and I start running down the street towards the school. We can see the crosswalk leading into the school and realize we are just about there when all of a sudden the creepy guy catches up to us and tackles us. He made us lay down in a scissor lock on the ground and continued to fight Kevin. I tell Kate to push him on the count of three and I put my feet behind him so that he would fall and Kevin could beat him up. It worked and me and Kate ran into the building. We start running around and the school strangely looks like Middle School East instead of Brookside. A janitor finds us running around and says he saw my mom and points us in her direction. All of a sudden, I see a few policemen coming after me and I don’t know why. I get nervous and start to run and I suddenly end up in a train station. Kate and I see a police guard sitting in golf cart that we wanted to steal to get away faster. We ask him if we can “use the radio” and he says yes but takes the keys out. Kate starts to pretend to actually use the radio as I talk to the guard. I suddenly snag the keys out of his hands and I throw them to Kate but she drops them. The guard gets mad and starts to chase me. I run away and jump a gate and land on the train tracks. The guard stops chasing me and says the cops are really going to get me now! I get nervous and start running down the tracks. I see trains coming and I dodge them all. I jump onto a steep hill and close my eyes because I am afraid I am going to get hit by the last train that is very close to me. The train passes and I can hear the cops coming. I start to run again and find a gang that I hope can hide me. They just tell me to lie down next to the track and to stay quiet. When the police catch up to where I am, the gang “plays dumb” and says they didn’t see anyone come by. However a cop suddenly spots me and I start to run again. They all start chasing me. I come up to a fence that has a cemetery on the other side with a twenty foot drop. I climb over the fence and climb onto a tall grave stone. The gravestones start moving and help me down on to the ground. I run through the cemetery and I randomly end up in a theater. There is a guard standing by the door which is my only way out. I dodge him and jump through the window in the back room. On the other side of the window, I find myself back on campus standing next to Olsen Hall. I wake up when my alarm clock goes off.
