Dreams have always intrigued me, I suppose because when I do remember my dreams they are so damn vivid to the point where I can remember them years down the line.
Last night I had a dream that I was in one of the buildings on campus, when all of a sudden about a hundred cops were outside and I could hear my name come from their lips. Apparently, they had accused me of murder because I happened to be in the same building around the same time as someone was murdered or perhaps committed suicide. Instead of confronting them and admitting that I played no part in the death, I ran. I don't know why, it is something that I would never do. Family and friends were helping me hide, but only for short periods of time because, in dream world, the cops were all over the crime and in high pursuit of finding me. Posters were up, pictures on the television. News reports. Finally, I found refuge in a cottage that my brother and sister in law had just recently moved out of, but had not sold. This is when I woke up.
According to dream interpretation, the dream represents that I am failing in honoring my commitments and obligations. It also implies that I'm being overwhelmed, shocked, and disappointed. It also says that I may be getting a sense of rejection from people around me and that I harbor inspirational emotions. It also talks about internal battles with myself and anxiety over the future. It says that the cottage may represent an altered sense of reality and escaping responsibilities.
It's funny because I think that these dream interpreters look way too deep into dreams, but for once, the interpretation is pretty accurate. My laziness has really peaked to an all time high and I want to change this so badly.
