In my dream last night I was a woman from the 1700's who was given a plastic bag. I took the plastic bag and formed it into a doll filled with air. the head was punctured so I had to put a piece of tape over it. Then I took the doll home and put clay on it and made it into a little girl. I gave her hair and clothed her and formed her features to look like me. She then grew into a little girl. The little girl grew into a young woman and she was considered my daughter. My daughter entered into school... and then In my dream I became that girl... going to school every day and I became estranged. Others thought I was a curious oddity.... though no one... not even I knew that I was nothing... nothing at all... I felt it inside of me.... that I was not real. That I did not belong there... should not exist. Other kids made fun of me and tortured me for my ignorance.... They told me to go into this field looking for something magical that would explain my existence, knowing full well I would only be met with the plow. Something that was actually quite dangerous... Another girl... a tom girl outcast had had enough that day and decided to have herself permanently socially exiled from everyone by standing up for me. She beat up some of the boys who had sent me into the field to get plowed over ( in a heavy dress and petticoat ) and then informed a teacher and went out into the field with them to help find me before I was destroyed. On a side note... as part of our daily activities I remember as the girl... watching one of the boys sink and entire Three masted sailing ship single handedly. He caused some kind of chain reaction that within seconds sunk the vestal and then jumped gracefully into the water that was consuming it in the middle of the ship. He dived down into the wreckage all around him... straight down through the middle of the ship... all the way down to it's bottom as it sank and retrieved some thing that he had to attain. Then as the entire vestal plummeted all around him he swam straight up the middle like a skillful mermaid dodging beams and heavy wood all threatening to take his life with one blow as the entire ship plummeted to the bottom of the ocean. I remember both being the girl envying him... and the feeling of being surrounded by a large sinking ship and swimming up through the middle of it to safety....
