I descend downwards.

Sometimes I can jump great heights ... over high fences or buildings...kinda like the scenes from the Matrix Movies.

I've dream't this several times over the years .... been a while now since it last happened.

Here's one for yah...!!! Ever been in a dream and whilst in that dream ... you have realized that you are in a dream. That has happened a couple of times to me.

Just thought I'd share that ....
That is a common experience
The secret of flying is to throw yourself at the ground and miss it.
Arthur Dent discovered that in "So long and thanks for the Fishes" (I think.)

I had a very, very intense dream last night. I was in the Ala Moana shopping centre not far from Waikiki in Honolulu when I heard a lot of rumblings and explosions. I rushed outside into a park across the road and saw a volcanic island a few kilometres off the coast (yes I know there isn't one there) undergoing a massive Plinian-type eruption creating a spectacular rising column/cloud of ash riddled with lightning & thunder. Absolutely awe-struck and wondering if I'd get a better view if I moved right down on to the bay or whether I'd be better off heading in the direction of the mountains behind, where I'd have more elevation.

Reality hit hard seconds later when it starts raining boulders the size of lounge-chairs up to the size of small cars. The first one landed a few hundred metres away and I can remember seeing it in flight, fascinated by the beautiful parabolic arc it was describing as it hurtled toward ground. Then several more landed quite close-by and there were people in a panic fleeing and being killed. Things were being smashed to pieces and then I saw one that seemed to be heading directly for me and I quickly figured that if I thought that, it was more likely to land just behind me so I ran forward several steps. It smashed into a couple of eucalyptus trees (on Honolulu -- go figure) and just shattered them into matchwood. Seconds later, I could see a huge tsunami-like wave heading into the coast and I started to run for my life away from the sea -- that's when I awoke.

All in technicolour, HD, 3-D and surround sound. Extremely impressive.

I don't attach any sort of significance to what I saw as a "premonition" -- at first I was just fascinated and awe-struck and it then turned to blind panic.


Best,

Les D
Les,that scared the heck out of me just reading it!
Whoa, you must have woken up feeling really drained. What a dream!

Had an odd dream the other night, I was trying to convince my uni teacher to destroy Justin Bieber.


Then another time I dreamt I was about 30cm tall and piloting a paper plane thru my local Coles, trying to get with various female employees. The store appeared to be merged with the Big W I work at and then all of a sudden I was full size again and was trying to get my hypothetical girlfriend to go to liquorland for me... this shopping centre was based on the real life one near my place but everything was psychodelic and it was alive and colourful like the cartoon representations of being high on dope

Back when I was younger I used to watch those Malcolm Douglas shows. One night I dreamt I was at a beach, with the tide rushing in and was trying desperately to climb the sand dunes to get away from the rising water. Somehow I could never climb it, when in real life it would've been a piece of cake...

It was a great dream! The uni teacher in question is generally a very gentle guy and gets along well with everyone
