Now I don't often remember dreams, in fact, I have perhaps rememebered about three so far in my life, yet the following dream that I describe was so vivid, so real, that it's always stuck in my mind. It occured about two months ago:
I was on a beach, on a bright sunny day, sitting ont he sand with friend, yet i don't know who these people were. There were two groups of friends, and they seemed to be segregated. A larger group sitting on the sand to the rigt and a smaller group was on the left .. in between was a small walkway/path. I was sitting with the smaller group, yet walking between both groups of friends and chatting to them. I devised a plan to pull the group together and suggested we all go suvenier shopping. So we all started to pack our stuff. When I looked to the bigger group, I noticed that they had all left, so I ask the smaller group wher they had gone and they said they went on without them. I remembered feeling quite annoyed. So I told the smaller group to wait where they were and I would go looking for them and gett hem back.
Off I went into the street adjacent to the beach, a long road with pavements on either side. I remember walking ina nd out of shops, yet I couldn't find my friends. Slowly as I walked further into the road, i felt a change int he atmostphere ... and slowly the bright sunshine was giving was to clouds ... with each step I took, the darker it got.
I remember passing a restaurant called Hell's Coldren or Hell's Den ... and there were monks outside holding menus, and I recall thinking, how weird!! but I continued down my path. By now it was pitch black, hardly anyone on the street and I felt quite alone. Yet I could sense that I was being followed.
i was apporaching the end of the street and started to think that I should turn around and head back, because I could see a kinda roundabout, or even like a square approaching.
So i crossed the street and as I crossed, i could see int he corner of my eyes, two dark shadows also crossing, following me. I felt safe tho, because there was a safe distance between us and I did not feel threatened. I carried on walking.
After walking back down the road, I realised that I had walked further back intot he road than I had walked out of it, yet I did not return to where I came from, i started to get a little scared. it was at this time that I sensed the shadows closing in on me ... so i quickened by pace, they quickened theirs, I started to almost run and they also started too, then I started to panic and run as fast as I could and they did the same. But this time they began to close in on me. I was petrified. As they closed in .. almost without touching distnace, out of no-where another shadow appeared and walked inbetween me and these two dark shadows ... they stopped instantly in their tracks, i could feel fear in them and they started to slowly walk back. I remember feeling very much at peace, a huge sigh of relief. yet I could not see the face of this other shadow as it was facing the dark shadows, i coud see their back, like a long cloak.
I breathed a last sigh of relief then I woke up.
please, please, if anyother has any ideas what this may mean .. I would be so grateful to hear from you.
