By all means, I should be studying, but this is more important at the moment.
I had a rather odd dream last night. First things first, now I didn't find this out till like a third of the way into the dream, but I feel that it is important to know from the start. The Bennings weren't royalty, but we were a very influential family, like the Rocketfellers, or Vanderbilts. I was getting married. It was an arranged marrage and he was seven. Apparently I was OK with this fact up until the big day at which point I rightly freaked out about marrying a seven year old. But it was a huge deal, like I was Marie Antoinette going off to marry Louis and I knew what my family duty was, even though this was modern day and I probably could have said no. So there I was, crying and freaking out in an awsome red dress and the wedding couldn't start until the Heinrichs got there becuase they were bringing some very important food item and I think Kelli was a bridesmade. She wasn't too happy about this marriage either when she got there. Also, there was something about getting a corset to wear because I wanted it.
So it turns out that he wasn't actually seven, he was seventeen. Which is still a little young, but much better than seven and I was OK with that so the wedding went on with a relatively happy bride.
Isn't that weird? What in the world is going on with my subconsious? I would appriciate some opinions on the matter, do your worst. This should be interesting. I find dreams to be lots of fun and I wish I remembered them more often. Though just hearing about Kelli's dreams is crazy fun.

ReplyDeleteI had dinner tonight w/Bro. & Sis. Shisley. When I asked them for their interpretations of your dream (cue Elvis from "Joseph & ...Dreamcoat"), Sis. Shisley said that the red dress means that you were sacrificing yourself (blood). Bro. Shisley said that you spilled wine on your white dress and what the heck were you doing drinking wine at your wedding? When we asked him to get serious, he said that your dress was white, but global warming caused it to turn red. So...there you go!
ReplyDeleteMy interpretation is that you think that your family asks a lot of you, and you feel obligated to comply even if it is something you don't want. Like marrying a 7 year-old. This scares me. I want you to do whatever YOU want to do. In the wise words of Maria (Toula's mom) from My Big Fat Greek Wedding: "I gave you life so that you could live it!"
