I have gotten some interesting feedback on this dream....

Okay, now I don't dream to often at least not dreams that I usually remember too much but last night I did and it had some people in my dream that I haven't seen in years. So the dream starts off as so:

I am some sort of a police officer who doesn't wear an actual uniform, but I am dressed up kinda nice with one of them fancy gun holders that staps on around your shoulders and what not. The strange part of this is my partner is my dad (a man I have never hit it off with, aint talked too in almost 8 years and do not keep ties with because he is a complete loser and our relationship was never right) and he is the driver of our car. We pull up at a house that is in a court it looks like and it so happens to be my mom lives there and when we walk in there are like 5 kids there around her. Mind you, my mom and dad are no longer married and haven't been for some time now because he had a drug problem, cheated on her, hit on her and all the usual things a punk in a relationship would do...so I was kinda trippen that we were there. Cause it was like they were together still the way he was talking.

Well, Apparently she had some problems there with some young asian cats showing up at the house lookin for trouble I guess. We went inside to make sure she was okay and to see what was up. She was kool, but before we left my dad and I were walking out and I said "damn, I need to make sure she has the gun and knows how to use it just in case". I ran back in and said mom, do you have the gun? She did I asked her if she knew how to hold it and whatnot she said yes and she was okay. I said goodbye, walked out and as we were walking to the patrol car my dad and I were mumbling to each other about what we would do to these asian cats if they camed and fucked with her. We get in the car and leave.

The crazy thing is this; asian's were the ones who shot and killed my best friend Jay in 1995 in a gang related shooting while he was sitting in my car. (this will have another tie shortly)

So we drive off in this car and get a phone call that there is some sort of hold up at a liquor store. We show up there and as we pull up, the gunman is having the owner and all his patron's come out of the building the back way and lining them up against the wall like he was gonna shoot them. We pull up and drive between him and the people strangely and then out of the way and park and I get out of the car and immediately take charge of the situation. I don't hear a word from my dad. As I raise my gun to the guy pointing and asking him to do the right thing and to please turn around and look at me, he does and it is a tall skinny asian cat in a blue long sleeve sweater wearing a black beanie on top of his head.

He seems to be cooperating and almost to the point where he is in tears. I ask him to walk towards me and to tilt the gun upside down and hold the tip of the handle with his finger tips. He does so and we walk towards each other as I am still holding him at gun point. When we get close, I reach for the gun and grab it. He gives in surprisingly easy. Strangely to me, I give the guy a hug and hold him as it seems he is very troubled and is hurting kinda bad. I walk him to the back of the police car (never handcuffing him) and help into the back seat for detainment. This is where the dream takes a crazy twist for me and had me in literal tears when I woke up.


When he sits down I look at him and he seems to smile at me and it turns out to be my younger cousin Manuel who is encarcerated facing life in oddly enough Colorado a place where I am moving too in 2 weeks. He is locked up for murder. You see Manuel was with me the night my best friend was shot and killed so we are linked together for life with that horrible memory. Plus he and I were close as hell...I was the person he looked up to & my mom was basically his mom. Anyway, back to this dream...as I am stuck looking at him I look to my left because I see a young female walking home across the street wearing blue as well, a hoodie and soem jeans. It is his girlfriend apparently and I yell for her.

She looks and drop her bag and runs towards us and when she arrives to the car she looks like she is trippen that he is being taken away. Manuel gets up out of the cop car without asking and my partner (who strangely enough is not my dad anymore but just some guy) looks concerned that he may run, but for some reason I say it's okay..he won't run. So my cousin gets up and walks past her and strait towards an empty lot filled with weeds but one bush with yellow roses; odd. So he goes to that rose bush and plucks one from it, the biggest one; and then returns and gives it to her and says he loves her and they hug goodbye. He gets in the car I shut the door and we drive off and she is left standing there crying.

The dream ends and I wake up...for some reason I woke up feeling the need to cry and I did. I have no idea what all this meant or if does mean anything but I just had to get up and type this into my notepad real quick. I haven't dreamt in a while so this one got to me and I figured I'd share it...

Peace -

dam..... im sure i could tell you what some of it means...... sounds real interesting....
I'd like to hear some of that J.

Flamboyant -I can't stand the man...he has been such a negative in my life brotha...the way I am feeling of late...he may be the thing to push me off the edge...believe me, there are a few people I'd like to bust out real BIG like.

Tappy - I ain't wrote in a minute and that is my fault. No excuse...I was like a big brother to him and my ass ain't kept in touch...another good reason I am off to Colorado...he's locked down there and so is his brother. I will take steps to restore connections with them both.

Peace.

Sometimes, when you have a lot on your mind, a lot of that comes together in dreams. We all know you've had a lot on your mind lately.

I think maybe your dad was there because in your heart you wish he WAS your partner and you had a relationship with him, a good father-son relationship. You both went to check on your mother because that's what you're about to go and do and again, you wish he was like that.
With this move coming, obviously it's been on your mind to re-establish the connection with your cousin and I'm sure you'll do that. Maybe you were close to his lady and haven't kept in contact? I don't know. But yellow roses are a sign of friendship ( I believe). Maybe your cousin lost contact with her or vice-versa and one or the other or both wants to change that?

A lot of the dream seems to involve the emotions and connections here that maybe you feel you're leaving behind. The drama, the heartbreak, the good times and bad. It also has an underlying tone that everything is gonna be alright in the end and the changes that are coming are good ones.
These are all just my opinions though, but it is what I think.

Yellow roses homie,
peace

Doom - Thank you for your kind words man & taking the time to read this and break it down with your thoughts as well. I think what you said about my dad can be somewhat true. I do not have the urge to re-new a relationship with him, however I do wish at times I had a good father in my life to teach me more about being a man. I feel I have alot of my mother's traits which are trusting too much, emotions easily expressed and so much more and I think that if I actually had a good father figure in my life it would have been different and so would I have. I have just recently had my trust, love & heart thrown in my face all in one shot and I am kicken myself in the ass for not learning from my past and I hate it cause I questioned myself for a long time, like it was my fault...I am now barely realizing that it wasn't....I was being "ME" and I can't change that...cause when your being "YOU"....your never wrong...your right cause your true to you.

I am happy I am going out to Colorado to be with my mother and help her as well as her help me get some things straight in my life. I have alot of questions about my past and things I need some answers to. I haven't had a relationship with her in over 7 years because of our distance apart and I haven't spoke with my father in 8 years. He was never there, so I am emotionally drained and need to be re-rooted again and learn about family, I lack that unlike alot of people these days and I really need to get that back.

My cousin, yes...I do need to re-establish that connection. I was like his Big Brother and the one he looked up to and I need to be there for him and his brother because I haven't been and that is my fault. I have strayed away from the TRUE people in my life and ended up fucking myself up emotionally and much more.

This can get so much deeper but I will not touch too much more on it. I thank you for this again...I aint spoke on dreams with folks in years...mainly cause I dont dream often in my sleep but this one kinda stuck out to me.

Thanks Again.

PR. Trippy ass dream. Sounds like your stressed out. I been there many times. You seem like a strong man, and we all cry about shit like that at times I can tell you quite a few stories that still hurt. Drama in life will always be with you. You just gotta be the strong one and not follow the same paths others have traveled before you. Stay up, and good luck

I've noticed that drinking a couple of beers before bed usually gets rid of the dreams. LOL
Drink away the pain!!! LOL

Well, I think your right brotha...about the stress cause I was for a very long time....I am now so much better I could praise GOD! Well, wait a minute...I have been praising him for lifting it so I guess that aint nothing new. Man, drama can be the downfall for folks...and for a minute it was mine....no more tho, I have lifted that weight. Thanks for the compliments on being a strong person brotha...I really try, but let's just say now...I am now going to give it my all.

Respect.
