Last night (Mon 19 July 2010) I dreamed that it was my senior year at school. As I walked down the hallway toward the auditorium on this first day back of my last year, I noticed how small it seemed now and remembered back when I first started and the hallway seems so huge. Like when you visited your kindergarten classroom years later and the desks suddenly seem so small. I was now a big fish in a little pond.

I noted that I had only two classes left to take. And one other senior, a good friend of mine (who seemed to be all my good friends throughout my life rolled up into one person) also only had two classes left. There was only the two of us in this situation. One of the classes was a piece of cake class, something like beginning woodshop or home economics. The other class was about understanding being black - the culture, history, and struggles of being black - like an African American. I looked forward to this and knew I would enjoy it though it was considered challenging.

After jotting this dream in my journal this morning, I remembered that there was another dream of "two" I had a while back (Feb 18, 2010). From my journal:

It was at 3:30 am, after being awake for two hours, that I asked to get with someone (a spirit) whom I'd most benefit from. I opened my heart wide choosing to fully trust. I heard a voice (it sounded vibrating and very multi-D) say, "Come together [with me]". I felt it to be female and I wasn't sure what "come together" meant, but she said, "I am hugging you." I vaguely imagined a statuesque woman in a bluish robe (like a Greek Goddess) embracing me. Then I fell asleep and dreamed.

In the dream was Brad Pitt and Angelina (who represented this blue-robed female). At one point in the dream I ran along side her for two blocks before she left me behind. I was utterly surprised and pleased to have kept up with her that far, though I figured she had started by pacing herself -- Still! I was thrilled. I admired her and was pleased to be in any way compared to her, in her company, or heard by her. I yelled out to her, "You go, Spider Woman!" as she raced away. It was meant as an endearing compliment from me because she - in a way - fought crime, but mostly because her limbs were so long, like a spider.

Later in the dream I told Brad Pitt (and my husband) that I ran with her and they laughed at me to think I had even tried! But I knew I had kept up that bit and that it was commendable and promising.

In the dream I had interactions with an old friend of mine. I walked up to her, happy to embrace her though she was shy and timid-like and not very assertive or aware/conscious. And to my surprise, but apparently to nobody else's surprise, including hers, I was significantly taller than her. It was two lengths, but I do not know what the quantity was (not in inches nor feet), but I would say that I was a foot taller than her. Whatever the case, I knew the quantity to be two.

But I am so short, I thought. And she was taller than me, right? But not any more, in fact, she was smaller. So it was a combination of her shrinking and me growing which might have equalled the two lengths.

Throughout the dream my husband and I were on vacation and it was coming to an end. And I was disappointed. But then he reminded me that we had two weeks left! At least. So we decided to go somewhere else now, leisurely, no panic or hurry.
