These past few months, I’ve had a recurring dream. Well, that’s not accurate. It’s more like I have a recurring dream pattern. These are the elements, in order:
- An escape from my grandparents’ house. Not just leaving said house, but an actual escaping. What I’m escaping from and what I need to do to escape varies from dream to dream.
- Me taking a car, typically one of the three cars my grandparents own
- A chase/race. My grandparents live on a hill. The chase starts at their house, and continues down the hill to the right.
The chase/race is where most of the dream takes place, and it usually turns into more of a podrace than anything else. At the beginning of the final lap, I am usually in the lead, but I always force myself to wake up before the finish line.
I had one of these dreams this morning, so I’m up writing this, instead of trying to go back to sleep, because I don’t want to fall back into the same dream.
