Dreams are the amazing ability the mind has to take you on an adventure, sometimes good, sometimes scary. Some are about the past while others give you a glimpse of what the future may hold. Some even involve people you know or have met along life’s journey. There are some you can’t wait to tell everyone about, some you can’t remember and some you wouldn’t dare talk about.
Now I’m sure most everyone has had an encounter where you couldn’t remember a name but carried on a conversation and then wondered who the heck was that. Julie and I were in Wal Mart the other evening and bumped into someone that we both should have known, neither could think of his name though. I tend to forget about encounters like that pretty quickly and move on, Julie will keep looking until the cell with the stored information is found, sometimes hours or days later.
We finished up the shopping list, checked out and headed home.
After several hours of surfing and posting on the internet, my eyes and fingers were worn out so we took a late night walk. Nothing came up about the Wal Mart trip during the hour we were gone or after we returned. I grabbed a quick shower and off to bed we went.
It was a quiet night, not a sound other than the air conditioner humming in the window. I had been lying there for at least half an hour thinking about what was on the calendar for the next day when all of a sudden Julie shouted out this man’s name.
In that instant, a couple of old dreams flashed through my mind and my only response was……”I hope you are awake.”
