I tend not to remember my dreams for much longer than a day or two. but one that has stayed with me for years was one I had only days after my ex-wife bailed on our marriage after finally admitting to me that she had had an extramartial affair. I dreamed that she had up and disappeared. I was frantically searching for her in a variety of places--football stadiums, malls, etc.--but couldn't find her. Finally, after days of my searching for her, she turned up, but the odd thing was that she had a completely different face. She didn't look at all like herself. The ironic things was that in the dream I behaved as thought this made no difference. When I woke up the next morning I really puzzled over this, as well as all the stuff that had happened to me (that went on for months, as you can probably imagine). What I finally concluded was that my subconscious (or some other agent) was trying to tell me that the person I though I knew was completely foreign to me. She coudln't have been more foreign to me than if she had had a different face. Very interesting stories.

In fact, it was arguably the most spiritual experience I've ever had. As such, I'm not going to share it on an blog, but I will say that when I woke I had an incredibly clear memory of it which has persisted till this day (12.5 years later) and I was crying like a baby, evidently even before I woke up.

A very very clear impression in my mind of what that dream was about came to me after awakening. It was incredibly disturbing! P.S. – I don’t think I am just making up the interpretation.

My then boyfriend (who is now my husband) was with another close friend (a guy who I have always really liked and been good friends with to this day, but never my boyfriend). They were both in a small dingy apartment in Germany. A bare lightbulb hung in the room and the floors were wooden slats. The furniture was old and beat up. I was in San Francisco. I could see them at this party in that little German apartment. They were carrying on and partying and I was unable to get to them. I could see them through a crystal ball, kind of foggy like. They were hanging themselves - committing suicide, and therewasnothingI could do to stop them. I couldn't get there in time, but I could feel the depths of their soon to be torment as they would be cast down to hell. This dream meant that my boyfriend would feel the depths of hell if I didn't keep him close to me and share the gospel with him. It was my job to "save" him. Sooo, I've kept him close to me for almost 20 years now, but he still hasn't let me fully share the gospel with him. I'm still tryin' though!

Otherwise, I don't consider myself accountable for the information. Dreams are bizarre, random, meanderings of the mind. I can't be expected to sift through that stuff to find messages.
