Dream Diary, May 1st 2019.
6 years ago
This is what I think...
... I had another one of those short, everyday life, specific kind of dreams that tend to bum me out more than they should
only because they're usually unsettlingly specific or de-script about something that has yet to happen but sometimes does.
It was a simple dream in all respects, I was watching an episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
During the video the camera panned stage left (our right) to show the band area empty.
Then Stephen recounted how they lost their lead musician and long time friend Jon Batiste the week prior.
... I don't remember anything specific about how he supposedly died, just the somber mood and scene.
I really hate my brain sometimes, especially when it's something predictive that I don't want to come true.
Of course I'm reminded of the dream I had before a friend of the family passed, it was more subtle mind you.
I believe I shared it here in the past but if not, here's a short breakdown version of it for you.
A long time friend of the family became ill and was put on oxygen under home care.
Things were grim with the combination of the illness and his age, so we expected the worst.
Then I have a dream about being at a car show (I grew up around that kind of circle with my dad).
Everyone from the car club was there, we were all in the sun having a good time.
I look over to see the ill friend with his car in the shade, next to another friend and his car who passed years prior.
I woke up in a panic, honestly scared about what it might have meant as this wasn't the first time I felt
what I did from such a dream though it was the first death.
Eventually my mother called them to see how he was doing, he was still alive. (I was still in high school)
(for reference, I've always had odd senses about things, so much so that my parents acknowledged it since childhood)
After time passed and I calmed down, we eventually started seeing him at car shows again as his health improved.
Then suddenly he passed away with no warning, he was doing better so it made no sense.
There is of course the thing about feeling better right before your time comes for some people, but still...
I'm usually the type that enjoys being proven right about things, but not like that.
