I routinely have weird dreams. Some say that it's just your brain processing memories, tossing some, keeping others. The dreams I have are surreal and appear to have nothing showing that I've experienced these things. A common dream alerts me to the fact that though I'm not afraid of heights, I do get anxious when I'm far above the earth, in an unrestrained position.
I cita a dream I had a long time ago, where I found myself on a pole, with a very small seat. I could not see a way to get down, nor did I see how I got up there. On the sides of this little platform I was sitting on, where two rails, like the kind that are attached to diving boards at swimming pools. When I was 15 or so, we had moved in with my stepfather's mother, and she had a house with a pool. It had the singularity of being the only one in the neighborhood with a high dive. The high dive was about ten feet. It didn't bother me. i jumped off it regularly, but I nver dove face first into the water. One of my friends slipped off the steps and broke his arm, but that was the only accident in this high dive's live. The pool did have a really deep end (about 15 feet) so it was safe.
But this dream really frightened me. I had these rails, and I looked below to see no steps of any kind. As I looked out, I could see a city far below. It appeared much higher than 100 feet. As I sat there, thinking about how I was going to get off, this pole and platform I was sitting on swayed wit the slight breeze. I was not secured, so I hung onto the rails for dear life, afraid of slipping. I couldn't move either. My legs started to cramp and I tried to move my legs to relieve the cramp. I had no where to go. I woke up.
I don't delve into what dreams mean. I did date a sister once, who before she came to learn about Jehovah, was really into interpreting dreams, but I never asked her and it wouldn't have been right anyway.
So, I guess I can put my dreams here, and try to see how they relate, and maybe I can make the connections between them.
