| | Man, I had another crazy, bizarre dream last night. I can't blame it on eating spicy food because I only ate a little meat and bread, nothing spicy at all.
First, let me explain the significance of my dream. My friend, Caroline had been married to Troy for a long time, but they got divorced, and he re-married and joined the army and went to fight in the war. He got blown-up last month, and I went to his memorial service, recently.
Here goes...
I dreamed that we were in some beautiful mountains. The trees and grass had a vibrant green to them. The path that led up to the lodge we were in was light brown with only a few rocks along the way.
I looked out the window and saw Caroline coming up the path with her mother. Caroline had on a beautiful wedding gown, and she was going to marry Troy, again! I was surprised that she looked like I remember her to have looked 15 years ago! And although I have never met her mother, I do know that she is part-Cherokee, and in my dream she suddenly looked very much like an elementary school teacher I knew long ago who was also part-Indian.
They stopped and turned around to see a mass of cheering crowds in the background. I told my friends at the lodge that she didn't realize they were cheering for her and Troy. I imagined throngs of people cheering. You see, last night I watched a T.V. special about Prince Charles and Camilla, and I never really forgave him for what happened to Diana... I guess that is why I saw throngs of people- that was how it was when Diana got married.
Then, I got worried because Troy never showed up on the path for the wedding. I cried to my husband, Ash, that Troy wasn't going to show up, he had changed his mind. Then I ran to another room and cried to God and asked why He would allow Troy to change his mind. He was supposed to marry Caroline, again. but God simply told me, "You'll understand someday, my child". But I kept crying, because I didn't like that answer!
Then, I realized that although I was supposed to be the maid-of-honor, I was wearing a white dress, also! I then became horrified because I was reminded of a movie I recently watched called "Monster-in-law" in which the mother-in-law showed up wearing a beautiful white gown to the daughter's wedding. But, then, I looked down and realized that my dress was now Royal blue. Whew! I was so relieved!
Then, suddenly Troy was walking down the path. I was perplexed because I thought God wasn't going to let them get married, again. But, perplexion soon gave way to happiness, and I was so happy. But Troy didn't look buff like his army pictures- he looked like I remembered him to look 15 years ago...just a black suit coat, nothing special at all.
Next I knew, I heard my pastor, Morris, speaking. And I knew that Troy and Caroline were getting married, again, in the other room. Funny, I could hear Morris reading Proverbs 31- (In Real life, I had just finished reading that chapter in the Bible). Then, I was mortified because I realized that he wasn't reading the KJV Version, and I knew that Troy and Caroline ONLY read that translation! (In real life, their church believed that all other Biblical versions were actually "perversions"! Don't ask- that's another story!)
So I ran into that room. But they were happy, so I forgot all about that. I snapped a couple of pictures with my disposable camera. I only had a couple of pictures left on it. (Funny, in Real life, I only had a couple of pictures left on my disposable camera, but I had taken it to the store, anyway, last night to be developed).
In my dream, Caroline and Troy weren't having a traditional wedding in which the bride and groom stand in front of everyone. Instead, they were sitting on a couch, and the church (my church) were having "home church". That loosely means everyone was sitting around in chairs and rockers instead of sitting in a "church building" in some pews. And I saw everyone from my church- I even saw Dan and Siew Lee- In real life, I hadn't seen them in ages. Oh, and I saw that my pastor's daughter had on blue jeans and an orange tee shirt. I think I dreamed that because I noticed a lot of people at Troy's Real memorial service had worn blue jeans. And I also dreamed about an orange tee shirt because Halloween had been celebrated two nights ago, so maybe that was fresh in my mind.
I remember looking down to make sure my blue dress was still Royal blue! Thanks goodness it was! And I saw that my dress was a tight, little thing, showing off cleavage! I wouldn't ever wear something like that, in real life! But... perhaps I would if I could- maybe that was why I dreamed that I could fit into that snug little blue dress???
Then, I woke up. I didn't jump out of bed. I sat there pondering why I had such a vivid, yet bizarre, dream? It was cold, and the kids were still in bed, so I sat down at my computer desk, and quickly wrote down my crazy dream before it drifts away into Never-land, never to be remembered, again.
