Dreams

I've been having lots of stress dreams the past week or so. you know...the sort of dreams where you're trying to solve a problem the whole time and you just can't solve it? or your plans go desperately wrong?

my dreams have had all sorts of different topics - but they've all been stressful! (last week was a really full, and stressful week at the office....for lots of reasons, that are not nearly exciting enough to go into)

i had a dream that a bunch of strangers crashed a party we were having...and started taking gifts that other friends had given us...and eating our food.

I dreamed that i was trying to buy something and the clerk took my credit card and went away - and i just kept trying to get my credit card back, and i kept asking people and no one would give me a straight answer.

I dreamed that something i ordered came in a pink instead of red

and lots of other little snippets of stress all over my dreams (and usually they're somewhat rooted in reality...or i can find the connection between the stress dream and what i've recently been stressed out about).

last night i had another stress dream.

and then later on i was thinking about it and i remembered another part of my dream that is just downright beautiful!

last night in my dream i heard a song on the radio. my mom was with me. after listening for awhile i realized that it was the liturgy that we sing at my church. the melody was different...and there was music along with it (we sing a capella).

beautiful huh?!?! as my subconscious works out its stress...apparently its also started reciting the liturgy. i'll take it!

That's so crazy...I have really weird dreams when I'm stressed too!! Nice though when it's something familiar that makes you smile!

"I'll take it!" -I love that! I also resent pink things. :)
