We will call both of these #20 since the first one was so short. And actually both dreams have a link with Grayson.
Dream A:
I am climbing a very rocky mountain, lots of boulders, around and underneath them emits a blue glow. I see the foot of the climber above me step off a large loose rock and I think, "well I can't climb on that and I need to take care of it". So I get on the opposite side of it and push it off the mountain. I hear it crashing below me and look to see it blocking a river right where it leads into a lake or ocean. Well, that can't be good. Other people stop to notice what I have done.
Just an FYI - I don't rock climb. However, I have been handling issues and problems that come up in a calmer way than I did 5 years ago. Sometimes it feels like an uphill trek on rocky ground.
I mean I guess he could be a Louie
Dream B:
I enter a house that belongs to an old co-worker/friend - she greets me and we walk into a very large closet where there are fluffy blankets hanging on giant coat hangers, and she hands me either a pink or blue one. I look around the house and notice large windows with a beautiful natural view, the rooms having multi-level floors, lots of people. We chat for a minute then I say I need to find my youngest child, Louie. I walk around looking for him and realize I might not recognize him. I ask someone about him - Spencer? - but he has no information about him. Where could he be? How will I find him? How old is he and when is his birthday? Is he my 5th child? These Q's swirl around in my head as I come across Grayson. Are he and Louie one and the same? I ask him how things are going and he says not great. But he has some news he thinks is good. There is a man seated at a table with no shirt on, sweaty and red. Turns out he is trying to sell Grayson a scheme to make money. I tell the man "so you're a scammer" and I start questioning him. He gets angry. Grayson moves off to the side to talk to this man's associate. But in that moment I know that the deal will fall through.
Make of this what you will, but I think it has to do with the last baby (blue and pink blankets!) growing up and moving into the wider world. I haven't seen him or Spencer in person for months. And I worry about them and the adult choices they make.
Widowing and Parenting - weighing heavy on my mind, I guess.


I bet you are right in your dream interpretations. I especially like the metaphor of rock climbing for what you have overcome and how you better handling things these days!
ReplyDeleteThanks - step by step, literally
DeleteYour interpretation of your dreams seems to make a lot of sense when you consider where you're at in your life. It's hard not knowing how our grown kids are doing.
ReplyDeleteIts going to take me a little while longer to get used to that!
DeleteYup, even when we sleep, we're worrying about our kids!
ReplyDeleteDoes it ever end?!
DeleteNo, I'm pretty sure it never does end.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I feel like no news (from them) is not always good news ):
DeleteMy dreams make no sense lately. I just hope to not lose sleep at night when they're a bit off.
ReplyDeleteYes, I hate it when that happens!
