Do dreams parallel real life?

blog

Last night, I dreamed that I was in a bridesmaid dress – a long, flowing, strapless sage gown.  My hair was lovely, my makeup perfect, and I felt pretty.

Except – oh no! – there was a war going on.  With bullets flying everywhere, I ran through a very chaotic Wal-Mart – only to take a shot to the abdomen.  My little sister (who was neither Becca nor Sarah) walked me to the bathroom, and I caught a glimpse of myself in the full-length mirror: terrified, disheveled, and blood-soaked.

Good morning!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

    I hope not! I usually have horrible dreams if I fall asleep listening to rock music… or after I’ve watched a particularly violent episode of NCIS or CSI.

    Happy St. Patrick’s Day! An old guy came into the tutoring center, today, and asked if I was wearing green. If not, I was going to get pinched! Ew.

    What, no heroics??? No taking the bullet for someone else??? No weeping friends/loved-ones?? No saving the day??

    I want a refund!!

    I’m gonna veture a guess that this dream is NOT prophetic.

    Maybe your subconcious is telling you that you can be/feel beautiful even when the world is going to hell in a hand-basket.

    Thats so weird, I had the exact same dream.

    Except I was in Target, not Walmart.

    Which was ironic because I was a target.

    I think the meaning is clear.. you should have a bbq tonight.

    I had a dream on Friday that my boss told me to pick up her daughter and “Jesse” from the bus station. But it ended up that Jesse was a llama and refused to get in my car.

    Hey, it was good for a laugh.

    i searched the internet for an interpretation of your dream, but found nothing. really, i only looked at one website. i was hoping to find something ridiculously awesome. but instead…i just learned that it’s impossible to dream while you snore. so, there’s that.

    remember the time that you had a dream you were getting married? and i was one of your bridesmaids, and you were like ‘becca, where is your dress? WHERE IS YOUR DRESS, BECCA?’ because i showed up wearing a grey plaid flannel dress. well, you told me about it. it will definitely parallel real life.
