    I fell asleep at like 5pm and slept until my alarm at 7am. That was magical.

    I’m surprised the cat let me. I hadn’t fed him but he didn’t wake me up by pawing at his bowl, he mostly just cuddled up all night.

    Also had weird dreams. The one I remember thinking was important is the one I remember the least.

    Title

    All I can remember is walking through an unfamiliar landscape with my mum, but she wasn’t my mum. She was something else that looked like her and wanted me to be at ease.

    She told me that major change was coming. That life after wasn’t going to be recognisable to now, but that I shouldn’t fight it. That it was for the best and that I’d be okay. Everyone would be okay.

    I know it’s just my anxieties about the current state of the world taking form and that dreams don’t really have meaning. But it felt profound in the moment. I do think I feel better having had that dream.

    I also had a nightmare where I needed to pee but all the bathrooms had piles of random boxes in them that meant I had to squeeze in and awkwardly sit there. Also they were in public places.

    That one wasn’t profound I just slept for 13 hours and really needed to pee.

      Ha, I love the pee ones that aren’t about anything other than needing to pee - way to break the fourth wall, body!

      I do think dreams have some meaning insofar as it’s our subconscious unpacking stuff, they dont predict the future but they give some hints as to how we might act or behave about certain things. When I’ve responded in an unexpected way or intensity to something and I’m trying to understand where that came from, dreams have been a great clue. Even the ones I dont remember, aside from when I have a dream later and all I can remember is “I’ve had this dream before”.
