Another dream before it fades~ I'm with dozen's of kids some teenagers, I don't know why or how I got among them but we seemed to be looking for someone...I kept asking who are we looking for?  I got no answer.  Then we were running along the highways, then running along train tracks...it looked like the desert or a wide open plain.  In the distance we could see mountains rising up...so I began to wonder if we were out west some place.  The kids would stop briefly to rest, some would drink water from bottles, others would just sit on the ground...it didn't matter to them where they sat.  I thought I was tired but didn't feel any joint pain nor weakness...it was as if I were young again..whoo hoo I began to jump up and down.  One big kid came over to me and said, "you might want to save your energy as we have a far way to go."   A little girl came up behind the kid pulled on his shirt tail and asked "how far?"  Her little face seem flushed..I noticed how this little girl looked just like a little doll.  Soft brown curls embraced her round face.   Then without anyone saying anything we got up..dusted the dirt off our bottoms and walked then we ran....it seemed like miles and miles...my legs were strong...I was in good form...never having to catch my breath...no coughing...it was wonderful to feel this supernatural strength.   Finally, we arrived at a train station...but it was no ordinary station, and by the look of the train it wasn't like anything I'd ever seen.  The train itself had no sides just a floor...there were long sturdy metal polls in which to hang onto, or there were cold steel benches to sit a spell.  I wasn't sure I wanted to ride anything like this ...but I got on that thing...and we rode what felt like a bullet train...I held on for dear life!  I wasn't as brave as these young ones were...   
....the dream starts getting choppy..and its not from all the detail mentioned above...that's just the way my dreams seem to go... well there we were, standing on some bridge or maybe like a dock...yes, it was a dock an old wooden place that had almost worn away from thousands of travelers before us.. it was weird...the place wasn't any place I had known before...nothing looked familiar.. I felt sad for my group of young friends...for it looked like we were standing at the end of the earth.  Then water seemed to unfold right in front of us...it was like the kids knew this would happen...I was in awe of this beautiful sight...waters with big waves in the distance,...I could feel fresh ocean breezes...now I thought where are the beaches?...couldn't we just stay here for a little while? Rest ourselves....we could see if there were any guest houses available if only for one night...then it hit me...my joints started to ache.  I tried telling the kids, I'm sorry I can't go on..  about that time...a ship appeared to be right in front of us...with a man welcoming us aboard...I thought wow what great service...and we don't have money!   Alright...we got on the ship...then, we found ourselves wrapped in big, thick bath towels...in a spa...oh it felt so nice...but those darn kids could not be still....they kept saying "where is she? I don't see her."  By now I wanted somebody to give me an answer...so I walked up to the big kid and demanded "Who are you looking for?!?"  I'm TIRED...you've got to be tired too.  Without a word, the little girl walked around the corner of a big wall..."Here she is!"  I just had to see who this woman was...then it dawned on me I'm still wrapped up in this heavy thick towel...I guess it won't hurt to meet her...after all... I was comfortable and didn't want to hide behind a big potted plant or behind a wall like she was..not now..I'd been through too much. A woman in her late 60's was now holding the hand of this little girl..as they quietly walked into the open room...she wasn't too tall...nor too heavy...seemed to be a quiet woman...the kids that were standing by me....were now walking up to her..I could hear some say, "Why did you leave us?"  "Are you coming back?"  "Are you safe?"   ....I thought it strange that no one said...I love you.  The woman just stood there, never saying a word just looking straight ahead as if she had been brainwashed...a prisoner of shame.   I wanted to reach out to give her my hand to say...I'm sorry...or to comfort.  She looked lifeless...pale...as if the years of work had taken its toll.  
Then it seemed like time had run out...there was a force saying we had to leave...we couldn't stay.....just when the dream gets really involved...I have to leave...I didn't want to leave such a place...I was in a Spa....on a ship...how often do I get to be with such an interesting bunch of kids....they were looking for their mother...I finally figured it out...they were LOOKING all over the place....then they find her....I felt a lump in my throat...I knew I was going to cry...    not a tear flowed.... .....how was I going to get home?  Where were my clothes?   Were they coming with me?..... I don't know how to get back!   I started to freak out.   The scene changed just like that!   It was totally weird.  We were now on a smaller type of boat...yes, we had our clothes on...yes, we had coats on...as we were drifting about in an open area of water....it wasn't as blue...it was rather cold, dark and gray,....in the distance...there were huge- I mean HUGE rocks...more like ice bergs  with a great Great Noise I saw flashes of white...then sounds of thunder...as these huge rocks were no more...
then I woke up.   Some of you might think I made this whole story up...nope, this was a dream....I had gone back to sleep...after being up so early this morning...  I dream in details...I always have.   I hope you enjoyed this wild n' interesting adventure... I don't know what happened to the kids...

Too cool, I have strange dreams like that occasionally and I wonder what they mean, but I never write them down. Now I'm thinking that maybe I should. I might get some new story ideas out of it.
