The Dream Thread

[Brittany]

Hello, All. For some reason, I wanted to share this dream I just had.

I was at my usual job, but I was working at a Kroger in Cincinnati. This Kroger was really awesome. They had all this really healthy, good-looking food on buffets in the front of the store and couches in the back. I was working with my supervisor and another guy and girl. My supervisor got really upset because the manager kept bothering her and she burst out crying and ran outside. He went out and tried to talk to her and I realized that it was time for me to go home. As walked outside, I felt happy because my job was turning into a fun place to work at, but then I realized I was still in Cincinnati and I had to go back to my Kroger in Kentucky and that bummed me out a bit.

I got in my car and turned onto the road, but it turned out it was a 1 way street. I freaked out and turned into this little driveway to turn around. As I went further up the driveway it turned into sort of a little dirt road and I saw a beautiful little bridge coming up. Beyond the bridge was a wonderful farm that I could have stayed at forever. An older woman came out and asked me not to drive any farther because it would mess up the road. I told her I was just trying to turn around to go back to Kentucky.

The woman and her husband were really nice and helpful to me, and I turned around and I guess I drove home (time skip?) and suddenly I was coming out of my parents' house and I looked up and there was what looked like a plane falling out of the sky. The plane then turned into some kind of train, and it fell into the back yard and exploded. I just stared at it, dumbstruck, then I finally came back to my senses and ran inside and got my dad.

My dad came out and poked around the crater the thing had made. He said it wasn't a plane, it was a baby dragon still in the egg, but a claw was starting to poke out.

Haven't quite figured out what to make of all of it, but I got the distinct feeling that my driving onto that farm was me somehow returning home. I felt such a longing for that place, but my vehicle wasn't suitable. Then I felt like the man and woman were my guides, very politely turning me around and showing me the way back so I can finish my work here, until I can abandon such a heavy vehicle and come back on foot. It was so beautiful, and it made me feel really good when I woke up.

Thanks for listening.
