Dreams to Die for

Published by daynafrances at 11:54 am under Everday Living Edit This

I have very random, detailed dreams every single night. They are almost always BAD dreams. I hate to refer to them as “nightmares”, though most people I know would call them just that.

Most of the time they are about nuclear war, present day holocaust, terrorism, rape, murder. I have been killed in many of my dreams and when I wake up, I would sware that I really know what it’s like to die. The thoughts that run through your head right before you take your last breath, the feelings you feel in your body, it’s amazing.

I remember in one dream, I was running from a man and I went into a house which I guess was mine, and I hid in a closet and he shot me through the door. As soon as I got shot, it’s not that I felt pain, but I knew what was happening and that I was going to die. I prayed, and I became extremely aware of my surroundings. I started thinking of past things, and future things and the things I would never get to do or see. I also thought about the people I would never see again and how they would feel about this. What also crossed my mind was the man that shot me. Why did he shoot me? What was he going to feel like, knowing that he had murdered an innocent woman?

In another dream, it was about nuclear war, and a big nuclear bomb had gone off. It wasnt that close to me but eventually the nuclear fumes caught up to me. I started to breathe them in and I could feel and see myself slowly dying. At first it was just a little bit hard to breathe. I was running, but had to slow down since I could barely breathe. Then everything started to go in slow motion- and eventually I just stopped breathing, and that was it.

I wonder if dying in real life will be anything like my dreams?

    Weird that you dream of dying so much…I wonder what that means. I’ve dreamt of dying a few times, so I know the saying that “if you dream you are dead, you never wake up” is a complete myth.

    I just dreamed last night that my husband decided to move us all into a small apartment three floors underground in a big apartment tower in NYC, and I couldn’t convince him that he’d be miserable if he were surrounded by so many people, and I would be miserable if I never saw the sun again. It wasn’t about death, but it was certainly about descending into a sort of hell. Anyway, I’ve been reading your other blogs, and they are good. Thanks for sharing!
