strange dream
by subacati
I just woke up a short while ago. it's still a little early. …
I had a very strange dream a short while ago. I dreamt that I was traveling abroad, somewhere like Israel possibly. I was in a field surrounded by a small crowd of people, maybe fifty to a hundred people.
I was a tourist but most of these people were Jewish. It was some kind of early morning prayer, just before sunrise. Anyway, the time came for prayer and most of the people moved toward the front and started arranging themselves into rows. I decided that I should leave. Another man was also trying to leave. We were both stopped by a line of young people wearing white t-shirts with red and yellow emblems on the front. They looked like students but it was clear that they took thier task very seriously. I explained that I was a muslim and could not join in thier prayers. They demanded proof that I was indeed a muslim. I told them I would show them my South African ID book. they took me, along with several others, to a table in the corner of the field. I rummaged through my bag, While I was looking for my ID book, I came across my passport.
.
Now let me just point out that my passport was issued before I embraced Islam. My Id book, however, reflects my registered name. So now I had to explain to these people why my name appears differently on my passport to what was on thier laptop.
Anyway. it seems that I did succeed in the end. But I couldn't help wondering what became of those other people who were trying to leave?

hummmm, interesting Aadil, you found yourself in a situation where you were asked to participate in a ritual that you could not, and they didn't take your 'no' well, by any means.Then you were pressured into having to 'prove' yourself, identification wise, and your papers were not in order, and the outcome though, was a good one.You were left wondering the outcome of the 'ones' who were being detained.I personally have found that dreams are thoughts/actions/situations we deal with on a daily basis but have not yet fully understood them. So, they are locked away in our sub conscience, processed and the result is the dream. Our conscience mind now will think about these thoughts/actions/situations and when we're ready, and only when we're ready, we will understand their full meaning.Hey, thanks for sharing this!!!:up: 🙂 :sherlock:
I find dreams fascinating, and I always dream, many in one night. I guess I have a lot on my mind.Some do escape us as soon as our eyes open and I believe it's because we're not ready to remember them. It's like a defense mechanism, of sorts, our minds allow us to view what the mind can process, at that time.I have some that are so terrifying that I cannot wake myself up, and I know that I'm dreaming. The sheer terror of having one, sometimes keeps me awake.:no:
I was going to make t private, but I decided to make it friends only instead. I seldom remember dreams but even when I do, I forget them very quickly. At least thier is now an easy way to record them. 🙂
