Another night of dreams...

[worldoflucky]

That was annoying, I just wrote this post and dreamwidth lost it.

I had two dreams last night I do remember. They both came in the form of previews.

The first dream dealt with a shack that had wood shingle siding. It was out in the middle of nowhere and seemed to have a full set of windows and doors. I watched as several ladies ran up to the shack, specifically to the power reader (the device on the side of the building that tracks electricity) and then ran inside. I walked up closer and noticed one of the ladies come running up and put quarters into the reader. There was a quarter slot in the center of the reader, evidently you needed to put quarters in there to turn on the electricity inside.

The dream then switched to inside. It was about the size of a large living room with several washer and dryers. There was also a tv and a couple of couches and chairs, much like an apartment complex's small laundry room. I noticed the laundry machines were being used, but there seemed to be a lot of sex on top of them with the girls an different guys. It was sort of time lapsed and several people coupled (but didn't see anything too in depth). It ended with an older blond woman (forties I believe) playing with herself and watching the "screen".

Honestly, this dream wasn't bad, its the next one that made me forget my earlier dreams and bothered me enough to post it

Warning, second dream may bother some people:

My second dream I remember was far more horrific. It was a shorter "preview" and when it started I got the feeling I had watched the preview before, but that it didn't have the horrible parts. I was caught off guard with the more disturbing parts and couldn't seem to turn away during the preview. The film had that grainy feel of an old home video camera.

It was a path in a forest in the fall. Tree leaves were everywhere, the branches were mostly bare and there was a young boy and girl (8-10 years old). The "preview" zoomed in on the two standing in the middle of the path. They looked scared and the boy had a shovel. Both appeared to be siblings, blond hair, clothing bundled up around them and they huddled close by each other.

That is when both started screaming and running down the path. The dream focused on a large man (probably about my size in comparison to the children). The male ran up to the little girl and pushed her down. She was screaming as he hit her a couple times with a weird farm tool like implement. The hits didn't kill her, but they dug into her neck. He then started pushing the tool up while it was dug into her neck to slowly pull her head off. She made a gurgling scared sound and then there was a strange sucking sound as she twitched. A this point the dream switched to the little boy running and you could hear the death rattle from the little girl in the distance.

I didn't know what to do, I wanted so badly to help and the film looked so real that I was now thinking it was a snuff film.

The male caught up with the boy and he got pushed down. The man smashed him in the face several times, but it wasn't enough to kill the boy. He then took the tool and cut away the flesh around the boy's mouth and across his cheeks. The boy was just crying and screaming as the skin was pulled off and blood started to pool around the boy's face as he bled.

That is when I woke up shaking, tears and so angry I couldn't stop it. It bothered me enough that I had to come out here, sit down and write it out instead of doing my workout.

That sucked.

Me too! :(

I love you.

The first one was even a bit amusing, really, and when you said the second might bother some people, I didn't believe you. I thought naw, it won't bother me.

But wow. Even if it weren't children, that would still be terrifying.

I always look for the deeper meaning in dreams, but sometimes the form of the dream is so explicit that it's hard to get behind it. I think you'll get it all figured out someday.

When I lived in Hawai'i, I had extremely vivid dreams, and many of the people in the dreams felt entirely real to me, as if they were people who passed and needed to communicate. I really felt like I was helping them.

I don't know if that's what's going on here... That one was so awful that it's hard to imagine it happening, but... of course stuff like that must surely happen.

Anyway, my jabber is my way of trying to make you feel less alone in all this.

[bakersgames.livejournal.com]

It helped, thank you sir :) Honestly, I am not sure what is going on with the dream as well, if I figure it out I will let you know :)

I'm not sure if you believe in mystical whoopedy-doo and whatnot, but when I read about your dreams, I just can't help but think about things like that.

[bakersgames.livejournal.com]

I do have a mystical belief system (mostly deist), and I can definitely see that.

[jesse-dylan.livejournal.com]

Wasn't Thomas Jefferson a deist? Or am I thinking of someone else? I think a lot of those guys were deists.

[bakersgames.livejournal.com]

You are correct, actually almost all the founding fathers were, I believe Washington, Franklin, Adams and Jefferson at least (oh and I believe definitely Thomas Payne was)..

[jesse-dylan.livejournal.com]

I've always been curious about it. I should look it up.

What I know was told to me second-hand, really, and that's a terrible way to learn about anything. Well, maybe not a terrible way, but still...

Anyway, what I was told at one point was that deists believe a God created the universe, then just let it basically operate itself, sort of like a watchmaker builds a watch and then gives the watch away.

Is that in any way accurate at all?

[bakersgames.livejournal.com]

From the great Wiki (its mostly right):

The concept of deism covers a wide variety of positions on a wide variety of religious issues. Following Sir Leslie Stephen's English Thought in the Eighteenth Century, most commentators agree that two features constituted the core of deism:

Critical elements of deist thought included:

Rejection of all religions based on books that claim to contain the revealed word of God.
Rejection of reports of miracles, prophecies and religious "mysteries".

Constructive elements of deist thought included:

God exists, created and governs the universe.
God gave humans the ability to reason.
God wants human beings to behave morally.

Basically humans must use the ability of reason to find god, it can't be found in a man made religion and it can't be found in a book.

There is more, but thats a start.

[jesse-dylan.livejournal.com]

I'll probably have more questions for you, too. :P

[bakersgames.livejournal.com]

Oh, and the watchmaker theory does hold true for a portion of deists.

[jesse-dylan.livejournal.com]

Okay. Interesting. But, essentially, what I was told was a fraction of the picture. Sort of like what they tell kids about Buddhism and Hinduism in social studies class. :)

I will do more research. :) Thanks!

Wow, mate. Your dream-mind needs some lolcats or something.

Tell you what, get the teleporters working and we'll come up and wake you up to play video games when your dreams get wonky, deal? :)

Addendum

[bardon.livejournal.com]

Just re-reading my last post and it came off pretty flippant. I didn't mean to denigrate what must've been a horrific night, m'friend.

Re: Addendum

[bakersgames.livejournal.com]

Oh, my friend you didn't denigrate it, I appreciate some levity. Please by no means think you said anything wrong, you comforted me and it was appreciated.

you are awesome, and I am working on the teleporters as we speak!
