Dream Goal

To remember a dream (It had been a while since I remembered one)

Meditation and Sleep

No meditation. Went to bed at 1:00am. Woke up at 6:00am and remembered this dream:

Emily and I were driving a chopped-up blue Toyota Echo, like the one we used to own when Toby was born. Tailpipe was exposed, and muffler had been removed. I could see that it was spewing green exhaust, which looked like coolant.

We stopped at a service centre. The door was unlocked, but when we went inside, there was nobody there. I called out “hello”, and my voice triggered an alarm.

I had to explain to the police what I was doing there.

Contemplations and Connections

I seem to have ongoing issues with:

  • Things not working at intended.
  • People we trust failing to serve their purpose.
  • Having to explain myself to people and relive trauma

For example:

  • A car, which I had been in a collision with, poisoning us.
    (I’ve been having concerns that small particulate matter from cars might have contributed to Toby’s cancer).
  • A storeowner not doing their diligence to keep their store safe.
    (Like doctors failing to discover Toby’s cancer to keep him safe)
  • Having to describe to the police (and relive) a scary situation.
    (Like having to explain to my kids teachers repeatedly what happened to their sibling)
