Strange Dream

It has been a while since I remembered any dreams. I don't often have a deep sleep, and usually if I dream, by the time I wake up, I've forgotten the details.

This morning I recalled something of my dream last night. It was strange. It was as if I was in some competition. I only remember bits and pieces. At first I was running or walking or something on a difficult surface, as if it was slick outside, and I was barefoot. The next challenge was to be at some bar, singing karaoke or something, but the third leg of the competition was to meet the rest of the team for bowling.

Because I was filthy from being outside and I had no shoes, I chose to skip the 2nd challenge and went home to get cleaned up so that I would look okay and would be ready to do the 3rd challenge the bowling with the rest of the team.

I will need to talk to the therapist about this on Monday. I wish I remembered more of the dream, but if I had to guess, the dream was more about being socialable and with others.  The first challenge whereby I was running or walking on a hard surface that was causing pain and my feet were bare, seems like something I was doing alone and it made me feel icky inside. The bar with the singing, is more about recognition from the crowd if they were watching the karaoke competition. But this too, is something I would naturally be doing alone even though there were other people. Instead I skipped this to go home and hurry up and clean myself up, get dressed and in comfortable shoes to get out to the bowling alley to be with my team so I wouldn't be late for that.

Again, I look forward to talking this over with the therapist.  For now, I had to log it.

I'll keep you posted.
