I had a dream that I was graduating high school. The field was decorated so beautifully, as if I was in a rainforest. There were picnic tables that were neon-colored. I walked around the field, seeing people I knew, people recognizing me, and the mood was just overall happy. Some groups were playing a prank and a field pole toppled over onto a house's roof across the way. Luckily, there were workers there, and just fixed the damage right away with a thumbs up response. I walked around and around the people to see who I knew to sit with, and ended up next to Marianne. I saw the Ni sisters walk around. It was a happy day and I thought to myself, "I feel like I already graduated college," at which point I woke, realizing that I had already graduated college even, so this repeat highschool graduation couldn't possibly be real.
It's *amazing* how my sleep-state mind can process these connections. Recently, a Messenger group started up to plan my 8th grade 20-YEAR reunion. How did my mind remember that but also remember that Marianne and Angela Ni also went to my high school since only a fraction of kids from my elementary school continued on to ND? Amazing!
Going through a dream where I was social made me wake up feeling confident. It's so interesting to me that a dream state could affect my physical mood, i.e. when I have dreams where I'm stuck with my ex bf, it makes me wake up feeling negative.
I wonder if I'll dream forever. I'm grateful to be able to dream still!
