Hello reader,
It has been a while since my last post. To be honest, I haven't really had inspiration or ideas to write about until now. Maybe it's because my relationship with God hasn't been growing too much on my part. Maybe I haven't been relying on Him as much as I should be. That does not mean I have not been doing anything at all. There are still times where I just want to have some alone time with Him. I have been going through things where I know I should be trusting in Him more instead of relying on myself or just not remembering that He provides or that He cares. I have to constantly remind myself of His love and goodness. With that said, it has just been hard for me to write about anything because I'm not really sure what He has been teaching me. I guess I just have not been listening hard enough...
Anyways, moving on to the topic of the title...I've noticed that the dreams I usually remember are the ones where I run around malls/shopping centers/department stores looking for something or trying to run from something.
Just last night I had a dream about going to a Real Life meeting at night. What made the meeting different in my dream is that we were meeting at a department store for some reason. Another interesting thing to note is that there were a few people from my youth group who were there for some reason. Anyways, in my dream I decided to put my backpack and longboard inside by the glass entrance/exit after asking the people working there if it was alright. Later in my dream, Real Life ends and everyone starts to mingle like usual. I remember seeing Michelle in my dream, stating I have not seen her in a while, then giving a side hug before she moves on and talks to other people.
Later, as everyone starts leaving, I decided that I needed to leave as well. I decided to go pick up my belongings, but when I went inside, I could not find them. I asked the people working on the first floor if they have seen them, but they have not. I started running around looking for my backpack, longboard, and anything else I might have put down. While searching for my belongings, I eventually found my stuff along with other people's things lying by a glass door to a balcony on the third floor. I also noticed my previous backpack I've had since 3rd grade to senior year of high school lying there, and I wondered why it was there. I remember giving it away to one of my youth group friends. I decided to put it on and take the rest of my stuff.
As I made my way through the department store, I saw either one of my good friends practicing lines for a production of sorts. I do not remember if it was Jordan from Real Life or Anton from high school/youth group. It would make more sense if it was Anton due to him being in Hollywood now studying to become an actor, but then my dream was about Real Life...with some youth group people. In any case, both of them are people I look up to during a certain stage of my life, and both are a year above me. They remind me of each other in some ways, but I do not know if Jordan is an actor. They both play guitar though...
So after trying to have a conversation with him, he kept on trying to practice his lines. I decided that he might be too busy to talk, and I continued down the stairs. I made my way out of the building and walked towards the street where I parked my car on the side. Then I woke up.
I feel like there is a meaning behind this dream. I am not sure what it is yet, but I should definitely pray about it. It would be nice to hear some thoughts about this too. I just find it strange that the most significant dreams I remember always have something to do with malls or department stores of sorts.
Well it is super late and I should be sleeping.
Until next time,
Kenneth
