Slightly Stabbed

My Unconscious Mind:

Present:  Me, Ashton, Daniel, other friends that I cannot remember

We were somewhere…there were picnic tables outside and a staircase inside with a hallway which included doors of various sizes. While we were sitting at the picnic table outside in front of a large tree that had some sort of bus station next to it. Ashton was beside me and she said, “I just HATE the doctors, they KNEW they could have fixed it…” Then I turned around and saw Daniel sitting at the picnic table behind us to the left, the one in front of the bus stop place, and he grinned at me but he looked sad…disappointed almost…so I immediately turned around and suggested that we all go back inside although there was a negativity looming over the house as there is in most dreams as though there is a spirit that is unwelcome in the house.

We walked down the stairs and into the hallway full of doors when I noticed that there were several opened doors that were closed previously, so I freaked out. I said, “We have to leave!” and as we were running out of the room I noticed a tall man hiding beside a doorway against the wall.  I said, “There he is!!!” and we all ran, they were all behind me, I spread my arms in a way to protect them and squinted my eyes, then the man lunged toward me, stabbing me in the chest…but not stabbing me all the way for some reason, just a little bit, almost like it were a game. I toppled over the couch that was beside me, grasping my chest, and then I woke up.

What does this mean? I feel like Daniel was disappointed that we were all sad, looking to blame someone, but then again I felt sorry for him because he wasn’t  at our table, he was alone, behind us…he was missing out…was this my unconscious mind working out the grief that I’m feeling about how much Daniel is missing out on? Or is it a sign that I know Daniel wouldn’t have wanted us to all be so sad and angry because he is gone?

Was the bus-stop-like area, that Daniel was closest to, a symbol that he had to leave us? Is that why he was sad, because we had to stay in the house with the evil spirit and he got to leave?

What was the stabbing all about? Was it a symbol for my heart being broken, crushed, ever so slightly because I have more to lose than one of the best friends I’ve ever had in my life???? I don’t know what it means and I don’t know if I even believe that dreams have meaning…I just miss my friend and had a really bad dream.

I’m just glad I got to see him grin again, and I hope he continues to visit me in my dreams, even the bad ones.
