Well, here's another dream I had last night...
I was graduating (from what I don't know...school?) and I was wearing these nice royal blue graduation robes, but they were really wrinkled and I thought 'I should have ironed these before I put them on.' The graduation was happening in this weird but pretty place that was kind of a combination of a mall and a park...parts of it were outside, but it was still part of the mall.
Some other stuff happened that I really can't explain very well. I had a really interesting conversation with a guy that reminded me of Alton Brown (the guy that hosts Good Eats on the food channel). Then, after a bunch of random weirdness I was in Kroger (the grocery store I work at), and it was getting remodeled. I had some artifact that this evil agency wanted. Another of my story characters made an appearance, as Batsu, who plays the role of a semi-insane government assassin who is very skilled with the blade, got sent after me by the evil guys. He was surprisingly polite, and said it would really be better if I just gave up and gave him the artifact and ended it peacefully. They had me closed in and there was really no way I could win. I said I knew that, but I couldn't give up without trying my hardest. He sighed and said if that's how I wanted it, fine. Then the chase began, and I was running around, trying to find a place to hide...a way to protect this artifact.
The part that kind of disturbs me is that even though I was trying my hardest not to get caught, I was secretly looking forward to the inevitable moment I was captured. I knew they were closing in on me, and Batsu was going to get me, and I was probably going to die (he is an assassin, after all), but the thought of that moment of surrender was...I don't know...strangely erotic? Weeeeird....
Anyway, I woke up before anything actually happened. I think the graduation theme would be an obvious interpretation...maybe the whole wrinkled robe thing would be my doubt that I've sufficiently prepared for harvest.. I constantly feel like there's more I need to do instead of just letting myself Be.
The artifact...a piece of my self? My beliefs or the value I put in my being? Batsu I guess would be an aspect of my subconscious self...probably my dark side, which I tend to swing between accepting and battling. However, I'm not sure the appropriate interpretation would be that I secretly want to give in to the dark side. Parts of it I find alluring, sure, but if anything I've been becoming more concrete in my desire to serve the light lately. I dunno...about to go to sleep again. See if anything new pops up.
