Eagle Dream
This morning I had this dream. And yes, this comes from a real dream rather than being a short story that I’ve created. It went something like this;
My memory of the dream starts with a baby eagle. I’m supposed to look after it. It clings to my hair as I hike along with a group of backpackers… seemed like six to eight people. Many days go by on the trail. The eagle is growing day by day.
One day a part of our group balks at continuing on the trail. (I think it was a safety issue.) But for whatever reason the splinter group refuses to go on, until some of those ahead realize we are missing. I hadn’t made up my mind yet whether to stay or go on.
We who have stayed behind are being told that we have no choice, that we must go on. The one who is speaking convinces us of the necessity of getting back on the trail. More days on the trail. The eagle is still growing, still hanging around me.
Until one day I realize the eagle is missing. How long has it been missing? It realize now it has left me for brief periods of time, but never for a day, or two days. I think it’s been two days, so I reverse direction on the trail and go back to where I had been.
Approaching the area of two days back, I see this hawk sized bird breaking for a landing on my head. He’s coming straight at me from the front. The eagle is so much bigger now that the fright of the possibility of it landing on me shocks me awake.
End of Eagle Dream
I know people in my home community who had dreams prior to Kennedy/Dallas. And I recall that there were people nationally who had dreams prior to Dallas.
I have dreams, but I don’t normally have dreams about eagles. So I’m curious. Anyone else having dreams that they feel are relevant to our current events and our reactions to them.
There is nothing below the fold, but our future, yet to be written.
