Messages from the weird dreams and letterbox.

Must be the late nights that I've been keeping. After reaching home and washing up, I fell asleep almost immediately after I laid down on the bed. I had a dream. It was a strange dream. I was in my office. I met some people I have not seen since secondary school. These were people I never ever talked to. I was on icq talking to someone I had not talked to in a long while. I got disconnected in the dream and by the time I got back online, the person was no longer there. Someone also tried to ask me for my contact number in the dream.

I was in the middle of the dream when I woke up. Part of me was just telling me to wake up while I wanted to finish the dream. I don't know what took over me but I practically jumped awake. It was night time. In the few seconds after I woke up, I felt very dazed. I was trying to recall if it was the middle of the night or that I was just taking a nap. After realising that I hadn't had dinner, I figured that it was just a nap. I got up and my arm ached. I think I just promptly fell asleep on my arm and didn't move after that.

Do you believe in dreams coming true? Do you think they really signify anything?

My dreams never came true for me.

These days I'm the one who opens the letterbox. Everyday I open it to find junk mail and bills. Nothing interesting. It's been a long time since I experienced the excitement and joy of receiving snail mail from people I want to hear from.

Yesterday I had a minor disagreement with my mom. Was on my hp talking to her and my colleague overheard. Today, my colleague asked what happened yesterday and I just told her what happened. She didn't say much but what little she said struck me. Basically she told me to just give in to my mom. Even if she wants to listen to her mother nag now, she can't.

It's only when we lose something or someone that we realise how much they mean to us. I know this isn't the first time we have heard this but perhaps only when the feeling of loss is very real that, you really, truly understand the statement. Maybe by that time, it would be too late.
