Thread Name: BS: Dreams that Stayed With You
Subject: RE: BS: Dreams that Stayed With You
I have recurring theme dreams that involve houses and other dwellings.

The first dream I remember was from when I was around 4 or 5 years old. There was a crowd of people and we were standing on the ground while some of us were being loaded in to a large truck with wooden slats on the sides (like a livestock truck). This truck looked like it was made in the late 1930s or early 1940s. All of the clothing and hair on the people looked like it was from the 1940s. My mother (not my actual mother in the waking state, but in the dream, this person was my mother) was one of the people being loaded into the truck. I was very bewildered and couldn't understand why she would be getting into that truck and leaving me. It was very distressing. Upon looking back and remembering the dream, however, it is clear to me that she didn't really have any choice. People were being loaded into the truck whether they wanted to be or not. The last thing I remember from that dream is watching my mother waving to me as the truck drives away.

Probably my favorite one to remember was standing somewhere and looking up at the sky, and seeing an enormous planet that took up about half the sky, hovering not too far above the earth. It was breathtakingly beautiful.
