Dreams...

Last night for the first time in a long time I had a dream that I can remember...I got married. Perhaps we can attribute this to all my readings of bridal magazines (in preparation for an interview), online searches for non-traditional engagement rings (out of boredom), and talking with friends of what our weddings would be like, but in any case I had the dream. It went something like this:

I was getting ready, putting on my dress, and I remember feeling that my friends didn't know who I was marrying. I didn't tell them for fear of their disapproval based on past conversations we had about my future husband. There was a slight pang of anxiety there, but I was really happy to be marrying my love and knew that it was meant to be. Then I was with him, both in our full wedding attire smiling and feeling deeply in love, and this guy, my love and husband was none other than my good friend! My friends and family surrounded us all bedecked in beautiful shades of blue, but my friends were stunned at who my love turned out to be. Some with questioning looks in their eyes that betrayed the smiles on their lips. I didn't care though because I knew this was destiny. I was enraptured, enveloped in his gaze, warmth, and love...then I woke up.


It seems highly bizarre looking back on it, but it felt great. What does it mean? Am I secretly in love with my friend? Am I looking for love...lifelong love? Or am I just lonely looking for something to take the feeling away? Who knows...if you can decipher dreams, I'm open...let me know what you think or if you've had any dreams you want to share.
