Open Question: Help me analyze this dream?

Help me analyze these spiritual dreams 1) I was in Buenos Aires when a Hurricane hits. Mind you I have never been to this city. I was there attending a Jewish youth event for people ages 18-23. I am Jewish by the way. I then hid in the bathroom and put a mattress over me. When I emerged from the bathroom, the camp director instructed me that I had to go home because the I had caused the storm. Before I had a chance to call for a Taxi to the Airport, I heard this one young man. Skinny, medium height, dark hair, no glasses, reciting Hebrew.To my knowledge all I could make out was that he was saying some prayer. I don't know what prayer it was though. I told him to repeat in English and he didn't. I then woke. up. 2) I had a dream where I was somewhere in St. Louis. I am from there by the way. I was with my friend David and some other individual. The individual looked like the one in the previous dream, he kept on calling for Daniel. I told him, no, my friend's name is David. He would not listen. 3) I have had 3 dreams saying that my friend David and I should move to Kansas City, MO and get an apartment together. All of which within the last 3 months. more

Resolved Question: I need help with this first paragraph please?

The story is about an eleven year old girl who visited her grand parents, she learned from her grandpa how to build etc. She later went to see him in the nursing home and read a letter of how he had helped her and he spoke for the first time to her. Anyway the first paragraph is not right. Can you please help? Grandma and Grandpa have been a guiding force in my life since I was born. They were a perfect couple, she was short with permed gray hair and always smelled like Dove soap. Grandpa was was about six foot tall with a thin frame, silver hair and always smelled like Old Spice after shave. When I grew old enough I spent more and more time with them every summer. When they built a one room cabin on the side of a hill to stay in while building their dream home, I was there. It was during one of my visits that I realized what they meant to me. At age eleven I became Grandpa's helper and began the journey of learning from him. That one room cabin with it's wood burning stove and pitcher of water with the metal wash pan became a wonderland for me. There was little room between the table, stove and full size refrigerator that Grandpa converted to propane gas. Their perfectly made up bed was in one corner with a rose covered comforter on it. My blowup mattress was on the floor nearby. this is an essay for schoolIt does not summarize the whole story in the introduction. At least that is what the grading rudric wants. more

Voting Question: Why is my Memory Foam mattress so hard?

I bought a Comfort Dreams 10-inch Memory Foam mattress (twin XL size) a few days ago, but... It's REALLY hard. It's like sleeping on a rock. I woke up incredibly sore this morning, is this supposed to happen? Is there anything I can do to make it a little softer? I'm almost ready to just bring my old 20 year old spring mattress back. Here is the mattress: http://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Comfort-Dreams-10-Inch-Anti-Bacterial-Allergy-Dust-Mite-Silver-Treated-Memory-Foam-Mattress-Twin-XL/4416190/product.html?rcmndsrc=2 more

Resolved Question: dream about kittens (20 characters) ?

In my dream there were 2 kittens, one being really small, the other being around the average size for a newborn. They were playing with a small yellow ball i think, while me and my cousin were sitting on this hammock/mattress/set up bed thing, so there was a gap underneath and the kittens kept going underneath and we had to continuously check that they were ok under there (except i was scared to put my head down to look incase they decided to scratch me), and then i kept on getting worried that we were going to squash them as the mattress would sort of sag under our weight and after a while, i couldnt hear them anymore and they were lying in front of us like they were sleeping and i got worried in case they were dead. My cousin stroked the normal sized one which moved and i was a bit relieved but didnt want to check on the small one incase that was dead. im kinda freaked cause people say dreaming of kittens is never good and represents conflict :/ more

Voting Question: Ex is now sending me love songs, what should I do?

Long story short, a girl and I were really close, awesome together. She tore things apart, quit talking to me and I left her alone. This was in April, in June I got a blank email from her and assumed it could have been an accident, although I was the only recipient. 4 days ago she sent another email that just said "John Mayer - Edge of Desire." I don't know how or if to respond, I feel like if I do, I'm giving her the power to ignore me and be chased by me, but then I don't really care because I have nothing to lose, so if she gets off on wanting attention it's not going to bother me. But if I ignore it she'll think I don't care at all and blah blah blah. I'd like to work it out, though it would take a lot of effort on her end, I'd like her to know I'm open to it. I just don't know if or how I should respond right now, or wait until she says anything again. Help. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0B5tBJXT_c8 <-- the song Young and full of running Tell me where has that taken me? Just a great figure eight or a tiny infinity? Love is really nothing But a dream that keeps waking me, For all of my trying We still end up dying, how can it be? Don't say a word just come over and lie here with me, 'Cause I'm just about to set fire to everything I see, I want you so bad, I'll go back on the things I believed, There I just said it, I'm scared you'll forget about me. So young and full of running, all the way to the edge of desire Steady my breathing, silently screaming, "I have to have you now" Wired and I'm tired Think I'll sleep in my clothes on the floor Maybe this mattress will spin on its axis and find me on yours Don't say a word just come over and lie here with me 'Cause I'm just about to set fire to everything I see I want you so bad I'll go back on the things I believe There I just said it, I'm scared you'll forget about me more

Resolved Question: What does a big black scorpion mean in your dream?

ok this early morning I woke up having this dream. I was close to my bed or maybe in my bed, I can't remember, and my sister was near me (she's 10) and my mom was standing somewhere close to the bed by the door. the room was not familiar at all, I don't think I was there before, and it wasn't my bed. Then somehow the bed was empty like there is no mattress or spring-box, it was just the bed skeleton and you could see the floor underneath it. Suddenly we saw this huge scorpion, with really big white eyes and a big tail on one right top side of the bed. As I and my sister were standing on left end angle of the bed the scorpion appeared close to our feet. It was going toward my sister first. so she backed up, and my mom was telling us something but I can't remember, I think she said don't mover or something like that. after my sister backed up the scorpion started to come towards me I was scared but I wasn't screaming or crying, I actually stood there without moving and I guess I felt it touching my feet but not stinging, and then it went, it appeared on another angle of the bed, but I could see it still. That's as much as I can remember! oh it is so nerve racking I've been trying to figure out what the dream means since morning, I looked at the interpretation for scorpion in dream but it does not suffice me. I still think it should have a different meaning or maybe a more completed meaning, I'm sure coz it was towards the morning, and it had nothing to do with stuff I was thinking about the day before. I don't think that it means someone in my life either, because I almost checked any close relative or friend's birth date, but nobody is a scorpion! please help, it is so nerve racking, help help help, real help, please don't just copy the dream book for me I've read it 100 times by now. answer me if you could really interpret everything in this specific dream. Thanks.help pleaseeeee more

Resolved Question: I think I'm a monster with out feelings, HELP!!!!?

I was diagnosed with Schizoid Personality Disorder SPD at age 15, now I am 21, I can very well see when someone is sad and I can even be empathic but I don't really feel it thou I do act kind of accordingly but is due to a compelling-real-feeling sort of feeling I guess, I am very well capable of emotions or so I think as for I enjoy catharsis, I am very spot on resolving other people's problems but I cannot seem to understand the deepest of my own, I do am cold and very lonely, I tend to attach my self with objects and I'm actually scared of departing from my mother, who seems to be the fondest of my own, she is very ill, deepening about it I see her condition, she had cancer 16 years ago in her large intestine, it was removed and she got stuck with an ileostomy (Basically she has to recollects her own faeces on a special bag through a hole 2 inches to the right side from her belly button) the doctor said she would eventually have her kidneys collapsing, which is already happening along with kidney stones, he also said her liver would, that hasn't happened thou, she was left with a very acute sense of physical pain (The slightest touch hurts her, saying that a pea under her mattress would really hurt her wouldn't be so far fetch), She has the most awful and worsening menstruation since the surgery, she is constantly in pain, and full of an erratic sleepiness (specially when seated), the worst of all is the saddening memory loss, which not close to senile but certainly noticeable, all of this as result of her cancer which happened due to severe starvation through childhood and most adolescence, for years I blamed her and my self for her coldness (She was the most sweet innocent woman I ever met, too innocent perhaps as for she cried out to heal her injustice, until god knows what this psychologist told her she went stone cold, I would never meet my mother again as she was, I'm not saying the constant crying was a good thing but it was certainly a million times better than a stone for a mother, this reminds me, she once dreamed she was having a discussion with her mother who was a rock in the ground, she didn't but I did see the pattern, may be it's our family heritage, and I too will one day be a cold stone in my child's sleep, when I think of my real mother I see that 37 year old caring intelligent mother, I'm afraid her sickness has taken the best of her) but know I know better, It was my grandmother what ever her problem is (I do not know if I should have feelings for her as most people do for their own, What I do know is that she only loves the idea of a grandson not my self, she doesn't even knows my mothers name, she goes through all my three aunts names before reaching her, sometimes my mother just goes along by her sisters names, the only reason I am her predilect grandson is because I am pale white and really blond, which I don't know how to feel about that obvious feeling, certainly not pleased or anything, the really sad thing is my mother has got traces of that, she won't say it out loud and even if she technically (And I'm certain of this) doesn't have a problem with other ethnicities, she does tend to generalise them, which she didn't use to, I think she is carrying inhabitance to an evil ever so strong), she doesn't even seems to be mourning her recently deceased husband, my grand father (He also mistreated my mother, thou he was just her wife's puppet, his words:...my daughter, you know I have to agree with your mother; obey is the word he be-feared using within her dwellings). This helpful digression sets the scenario, I always blamed her, and in-admittedly my self for her seeming odd craziness, I called her a two-faced liar, I used to believe this to be true, an evil Machiavellian adept, I even told her to be her husbands fearing bitch, this I sadly still believe, not bitch but a willing slave of her sadly disgusting, first and last companion of seeming "salvation", her believed choosenles fate to an unrotten loneliness to come of a husband... Now I see she has just been dying, body and soul. I want to save her, but I sealed hers and my destiny at a yester day, when things fall in to peacefulness at the beating of my godless yet not devilish choice to set the long lasting unsettled settlement to sell my soul for cheap earthly peace, I just wish and hope this guilt for having enclosed my never nurser mother away from my wishful mind in to thI just wish and hope this guilt for having enclosed my never nurser mother away from my wishful mind in to the darkness of it's own. Could I ever accept she will never return... I am crying, Is this a feeling, just an under reaction to the loss of this far ever so lost woman who could not nurse me, or a reaction to the sad story to this pitiful life I call my own, could it be the sad song I hear as I write... I ask?.Oh!, How could I? I told her to ...pleasure ...him, for mine and brothers sake, I just realised I sold her, and she laughed nervous, perhaps; I'd like to think so, but happily at her cheap price, at this instant I see she lost all her sanity, and all is left is her mad cow hollow brain only minding its senseless dead once beating core, of sickening love I say. For that's all is left, a smutty love starting letter, not so finished yet, still lies an always to last cold hand writing on the patchy sheet, she might as well be trapped in her bodily form in a bed in a drooling ever state in nappies. Am I a monster for the wish of a her mind to dipper away in flight to reach the seven dippers land, were a ploughing child is no more. more

Resolved Question: What do you think of my writing style?

Hey guys, I was wondering whether you could tolerate reading an entire novel in my style of writing. I apologise if this excerpt from the novel I'm writing isn't the most grammatically correct or sophisticated piece you've read, but I'm 15 and starting out in this! Room 18, Block H of the Rochester Discipline Camp has been my residence for the past ten months, sixteen days and eight hours. They call it a 'Discipline Camp', but the name doesn't explain the bars in the windows, the crap they make us eat or the pile of corpses that are festering in The Ward. Camp wouldn't be that hard to bear if it weren't for your heart colliding with your ribcage every time a warden came; a warden came for one of three things- to either give you your food, let you out for recreation time or to drag you to The Ward. Needless to say, people who go to The Ward don't come back. My roommate was Alice. I knew her before we came here, when we lived in the little village of Pluckley in the borough of Ashford. At that moment she was in a deep sleep, curled up on her thin mattress opposite mine on the floor. Her straight dark hair was splayed across the pillow and every so often a quiet snore escaped her nose. I couldn't sleep. The screams from The Ward had died down in the past hour, but then came the smell. No one here, no matter how long they've been in Camp, can stand the smell of burnt flesh. I nuzzled my nose into the coat that my mother had given me on her last visit; the scent of her perfume filling my nostrils. Of course, it was old and worn- no one of non-white descent could afford new clothes, but the fraying tweed and the faded purple satin lining were enough to drag me away from the hell I was living for a few minutes. "Zaf, you're still awake?" came Alice's voice, heavy with sleep. "Did I wake you up? I'm sorry," I replied, pulling an apologetic face. "No, it's alright," she said. "Was I talking it my sleep again?" "A little," I sat up on the mattress. "Bad dream?" Alice stretched her pale arms in front of her. "I can't remember." Any thoughts or comments would be hugely helpful, thanks (: more

Voting Question: What does this dream mean?

Okay the dream started out to where I was asleep. I then noticed that the whole room had changed. Like, my furniture was in the wrong place, my bed was only a mattress on the floor covered in pillows thrown around and blankets. My laptop was right in front of me. I heard my phone ring and I answered. I couldn't hear their voice well at all. It was like they were only mumbling. After I said I couldn't hear them, I hung up. I turned around and my laptop had changed to being much bigger. My laptop is a 15 inch screen. When it got bigger it looked twice that size. I was confused and looked at it and it wasn't even mine. I blinked, and then it got smaller. Much smaller. Like the size of a portable DVD player. Someone called me again and I still couldn't hear them well. When I got off the phone, I looked around and the whole room had changed back to normal and my laptop was the way it was. That was when the dream ended and I woke up.I was asleep and then woke up in the dream. more

Resolved Question: Does Any1 Else Experience Sleep Paralysis On A Whole New Level?

Does any1 else feel "Sleep Paralysis" is an outer body experience? I have common experiences: 1) Once i was sleeping in bed and awake with sleep paralysis. Paralyzed really from my bed yet what i am doing was "sitting in a black folding chair" that is actually standing next to my computer desk; paralyzed next to my bed facing a coffee table with a "computer" (really isn't there either) placed on it. My eyes were open faintly trying to see clear but my vision was blurry. I felt myself trying what felt like minutes to move and than just drop lifeless to my mattress...after the paralyzed state subsides, i "splash onto my bed" i open my lids seeing the ceiling fan spinning. This never happened, yet it wasn't a dream. IT was just as real as me typing this now :/ 2) I was sleeping at a friends house in an open bedroom and all of a sudden i awaken with this unfortunate feeling. What I am doing during this is "walking into another room" and "talking to a friend, lights on" & than I head back to the one room I came from. All of a sudden I realized I am actually sleeping because within an instance, what just happened was like a blink of an eye. I am paralyzed to the bed with my eyes shut because with all my strength they could not open...A minute later, I think I am "seeing a friend of mine, standing up and looking down". I am pleading for the friend to lift me up because I cant move. I feel my arms raising into the air & than *snap*, half way of being sat up; My eyes really open and what I saw flying towards me from the pitch blackness...the most evilest thing. From what i remember, it was a demonic apparition flying towards me like lightning. I felt myself "screaming like a girl" as I "snap the sheets over my face and curl". What felt like a second later, no longer am I paralyzed. I woke up, the room filled with sun... P.S. I have had many paranormal experiences since the age of 6. The hearing of the name whispered into my ear, poltergeist, the white sheet standing in front of my bed. A full apparition of an old man sitting on my bed with his hands placed on his lap, even a wheelchair moving out of nowhere doing a 360. Alot more stories which would be even detail. Mostly it would be the man who died in this house prior to living. His name was Alex. Yet he is friendly and makes his appearances without meaning or causing actual evil harm...The 2nd incident of the sleep paralysis had taken place at a friends; I looked it up and what they told me about the demon i saw flying into me is that this happens normally in west African tribes. They described him in detail and said this means "you are not possessed by a ghost, you are the ghost's possession; he owns you". I cant find that site anymore and have since tried many occasions to find the link. Not shocked, I always knew I had a 6th sense but was little nervous discovering I am actually owned by another spirit like I am his slave or something. Again this is mostly experienced (that demon) in west African tribes...the weird part, I live in New York :/ Any1 else experience the horrible experience and that demonic apparition evade your body and i guess "take over your soul"???P.S. IT IS NOT MENTAL, I HAVE FAMILY AND FRIENDS WHO HAVE SHARED EXPERIENCES. I AM KNOWN TO HAVE THE HAUNTED HOUSE IN THE TOWN...I HAVE A LOT OF WITNESSES TO THIS PARANORMAL INSTANCES :) U CAN GO SEE YA OWN SHRINK more

Voting Question: Really weird dream, can anyone interpret it?

I almost always have bad dreams. I recently got a dream catcher because i believe that they work. I got a small one awhile ago and just now i had a bad dream last night.. In my dream I was sleeping on an air mattress with my friend Caila and we were in my room. Then I woke up and she disappeared and a little girl with short black hair and a white long dress came crawling out from under my bed with scissors trying to kill me. The first defense I had was to grab my pair of scissors right next to me and start stabbing her crazily. I thought she was dead but when i turned my head for a split second she came back to life. I kept stabbing her and she wouldn't die. I called my parents in the other room over and they came over to the room saying what are you doing? thats the girl from the pool! (implying that we knew her and that we belonged to some sort of town pool, which we dont) then i showed them that she was trying to kill me with scissors and so we tried tying her in a sheet and keeping her in it. Then i just kept screaming to my dad get a gun get a gun and he came running with a gun. Before he could shoot her my cousin Molly and her boyfriend Devin walked in my house and I told them to leave because we were trying to kill this girl before she got away. But her boyfriend insisted on telling us something so my dad dropped the gun and ran downstairs to talk to them. The gun fell apart and so i frantically tried putting it together right in front of the girl so i could kill her. My mom was next to me trying to help. Then I just woke up. Does anyone know what this means? by the way, i didn't watch a scary movie last night. i wasn't thinking about anything scary. does anyone actually knowwwww what it could mean? I do like scary movies, but this one was just weird. and the part where i stabbed her with scissors keeps on replaying in my head and freaking me out. 1 day ago more

Resolved Question: I had a dream about finding and keeping a baby girl?

I had a dream that I found a baby girl in a stroller - I am unsure of the location. She was white and sweet and sound asleep. I held her and looked down at her sweet, sleeping face. I took the baby out of the stroller and carried her and took her up an elevator to see my three daughters (in waking life, I only have one daughter). The eldest daughter's name was Erica (about 7 yrs old), the second daughter's name was Heidi (about 5 years old), and the third daughter's name was my actual daughter's name (the girl was about 3 yrs old - my daughter is actually 16). A black woman was yelling that I had stolen the baby, but no one, not even her, was coming after me. We were all sitting on some platform in a warehouse. I wanted to start going down a metal ladder that was attached to the platform. A hispanic woman had placed some bed mattresses against the ladder which blocked our descent. I yelled at her that I was going to beat her up if she didn't move it, and I wasn't kidding (I am not a violent person in waking life). What could all of this mean? more

Resolved Question: How can I get over my fear of the dark?

Ok so im 17 and im afraid of the dark and I want to get rid of my fear. I was afraid of the dark when I was little because I was always paranoid, i'd always have to have my door open, a night light on and be huddled up in a ball. I got over most of it it by the time I was 13 and was able to break free from the ball, having my door closed came a lot earlier due to my mother always having her god damn tv on, and I got rid of the night light. I moved into a house at the age of 12 and about 1-2 years later I started having waking dreams. I'd wake up suddenly and their would be some horrible creature almost human like coming towards me. I'd always have that feeling of it's going to kill me and i'd scream, some times it would run away or disappear but other times i'd just come towards me until my mother came in the room. It would usually happen about 3-4 times a month till I was 15 then it started coming back about once a month. Theirs one that had come repeatedly, it was a huge white spider. It was more annoying then scary, i'd often kick at it when it came down from the sealing on it's silk. When ever I kicked at it, it would sway as if I had touched it then it would run back up to the sealing and disappear. The second last time I ever saw it was when it brought a big black and red spider with it, I got scared ran to turn on the light and I could still see the spider for a second. The last time I ever saw it was when I had a paralyzed dream accompanied with a delusional dream. Im afraid of my brothers room and I used to keep it closed because I always had to walk buy it and i'd often try to run past it but i'd often get hurt because a little set of stairs is literally right next to his door. I got over it but recently I find my self being creep ed out by it. I almost never go into my parents room at night unless I have to, it just creeps me out so much. I'd heard voices at night, they have never been nice and often ended up on threats, I also have a lot of little stuffed animals in my room and some times they creep me right out because I think their going to come after me. Im terrified of my closet and literally only go in it on rare occasions. When ever I go to bed i'll run and jump onto my bed as fast as I can and try to go to sleep. I used to sleep on the couch for about a year when I was 15, my parents hated it but I was to afraid to go into my room. When we first moved in I slept on a mattress then they got me a bed frame and I couldn't sleep in my room for a few weeks because I was so paranoid. I often have bad cases of paranoia if I have sugar right before I go to bed. But I know it's not the true cause of it because it happens even when I don't have sugar. I think my paranoia and waking dreams have started up again because I noticed im displaying odd behaviors like I normally do when i'm afraid of the dark. I was fine for a while but now I can't even go into the kitchen with out a light on and I freak out if I do go in with out a light on.I currently sleep in my room with the door closed. I do face the dark a lot but im getting in to my paranoid habits.Again! and I don't want to see a doctor again. more

Voting Question: What is this called, i dont really know how to describe it, its like sleepwalking?

Ok so first let me say that i remember these episodes clear like a memory. However at the time i was 'sleepwalking' my mind was acting like it was in the dream. Here's what happened once: Ok so i went to sleep. I woke up and threw my cover on the ground. I felt scared like there was a creepy bug monster thing that was going to come from under my blanket. When i threw the blanket on the floor i was kicking it away then i raised my legs back up and held them tight because i felt like the monster was going to attack my feet from under the bed. The whole time i was pretty scared, sitting on the middle of the bed, and focusing on the blanket. However, i remember that time clearly. Now i can say that i was half awake because i remember it so clearly and i remember finally picking up my blanket and going back to sleep. Another time i woke up thinking that someone was going to come into the house and into my room to find me. I was listening so carefully i could hear the small sounds the house makes normally but was freaking me out. I remember so clearly listening so intently on any sound because i was really scared my senses were on overload. I finally thought to myself that if i covered my head with my blanket and acted like i was sleeping he wouldnt notice me. so i did that and fell asleep again. This has happened recently, im16 years old almost 17, and its probably happened like 5 times over the past 3-6 months. Every time this has happened i can remember it clearly, the only reason i forgot some of the times is because of time not how deeply i was sleeping in the episode. The only factor i can see in this is i get really restless when im uncomfortable for some reason. The heat of summer is in, or my mattress is bothering me, or pms is giving me restlessness or aches. Also all of the times were of me being scared. Only once was i looking through a drawer trying to get something for a friend i thought was there, not actually scared of something. So what is this? i doubt its sleepwalking because of the vividness of the episodes. Is there a way to explain it, does anyone have some websites with information on this specific problem? Any research or help is appreciated, also dont tell me to go to a sleep center or see a doctor. Its not terrible for me or life altering, plus we cant afford to see any kind of doctor especially these days. If you know something let me in on it, if not and your just going to tell me to see a doctor please spare me, i dont need to hear it i already know thats an option.Thanks for everyone's input! ^_^ more

Resolved Question: Creepy dream. Please interpretate! Please no imature answers!?

Dream I'm in a room with nothing in it except for me, a mattress and a gray fluffy kitten. It looks like I am cuddling with it. The light is off in my room and the hallway light is on. I think it is night out because my room is very dark. Then there is a fox running around in the house then it starts down the hallway. At first you see the fox's feet then there is a close up on the face. It looks like the fox is growling. The teeth shows and it's drooling. There is no sound in the dream till it starts running down the hall and I hear it run. The sound of the fox running gets louder and louder then I wake up. The creepy part...well I think so I've only had that dream twice so far. The first time I don't know how old I was but I was young. Probably around the age of five. The second time I was 11 and I just moved into a new house that was built a couple years ago at that time. The thing is when I moved into that new house the room that I had, I had in my dream both times. And the thing is when I had that dream the 1st time, that brand new house wasn't even built. more

Resolved Question: Which mattress to buy, stuck between 2 types!?

I am in the middle of buying a new mattress, have just recently bought a new bed. I've narrowed it down to 2. One is a dorlux pocket spring, with 1000 pockets, the other is a dreams bed, with 600 pockets, and a layer of memory foam on the top with a quilted cover. I'm stuck between the 2, so any experiences with similar mattresses or these 2 brands of mattress would be helpful! cheers :) more

Resolved Question: How is my book so far not finished yet btw?

this is long and not the full thing if you want more email me (but im editing it so when i give you the full it may not be like the first chapter here) Chapter 1. David David sprang up sitting straight up on his bed the sheets were mangled around him. A cold sweat was coming down his forehead. He shivered and gazed down at his wife. She was stirring wildly. He put a hand down to sooth her. She settled at his touch. He sighed and lay back down. The sun rose and shined on a ring on the night stand reflecting onto the couple. They sat up then sat on the edge of their bed and rose up from the old creaky mattress. The women grabbed the ring and slipped it on her finger. David had already started to get her cane. She gratefully took it. They walked out to the front patio and they sat on two lawn chairs. Facing the trees and road the scenery was great. But no matter how nice the scenery or temperature or anything else was this was the worst day for Jane and I’s life. “Jane” I said to the old woman next to me. I was staring into the horizon avoiding her eyes afraid I might cry. “I know it is time but, who will I give it to” she reached out for his hand squeezing it gently. I glanced over, she was staring at me. I moved my head slowly and steadily and gazed at the wretched ring and then met her gentle, wrinkled face. Her face had a long scar from the first time one of the wishes the ring had granted went wrong. My big warm hands cradled her face and I stroked where the scar was. Jane shivered slightly. I held her hand to my chest and felt the cold bump that and always had been the ring well ever since that dreadful night at the market. It was cold and dark out. Jane and I were young and in love I was thinking about proposing to her but I didn’t have enough money for the diamond ring. We were walking down the marketplace dirt road she stopped at every jewelry stand, none had nice diamond rings. Although she might had not been looking for them but I did. Then, since Jane was a nice person, we saw a poor person and she gave the poor woman money, Jane didn’t hear and walked away as I stopped to listen she gave me what I was looking for a quality ring. Although it was not a traditional ring I said thank you. Then right there I knelt down my hands already sweaty my heart thumping. “Jane Trevose will you marry me” I said smoothly “Yes” she jumped up and down and hugged me I lifted her up off the ground and spun her. I slipped on the ring then the woman asked to speak with Jane and then me. She told me Jane knew the same thing and just a bit more. That’s when I realized my mistake. My memory faded in and out then I ended up back in the real world. “Ti amo” I said in Italian and then whispered in case she didn’t understand “I love you” “I love you too” she whispered back. I could tell she drifted into space. Remembering something or thinking, thinking about what I thought. A dim memory whisked into my head, the second time I was taken into a dream like memory It was the accident when the rings powers had went bad. She had wished a wish she had made a hundred times before. It was where the place would prepare a meal and clean its self up, or that’s what she told me. The knives had darted at her instead though. She had dodged most and it had cut her cheek deeply. Than had fallen down the stairs from the shock. But I made the feather dusters catch her before a serious head injury. Then she and I came back to reality. She watched me with grateful eyes because only later on, after the incident, she had seen that her ring had slipped off her finger and I had wished for the feather dusters under her. I knew from the look she was giving me that moment I came out of the memory that she was thinking of the same thing as me, we were always on the same page. When the problem with the ring had begun that was our signal that they had to pass on the ring. Or at least Jane had to because she had used it the most. But in order for her to be able to pass on the ring she would have to lose a loved one. Or in better words she was forced to leave me permanently Jane glanced over to the horizon where the trees had the sun slowly rising above them. The birds chirped. When she looked over back to her husband he was nothing but a thin mist in the shape of his figure. She quickly closed her eyes and opened them where the horizon was again. Then she looked back over to where her husband used to be, hoping that he would be back. She sighed knowing that it had been no use to look over once again, because no matter how many times she did she would never see her husband again. more

Resolved Question: Pregnancy dream, help please?

Last night I had a dream that I was pregnant. It was in this Tim Burton meets 'It's A Small World' place and there were little rivers and canals with boats on them for transport and it was all dark and red. When the dream started I was very early on in the pregnancy and there was only a very small bump showing. I was with my mum and she didn't seem to happy because I was pregnant. We were standing on a little bit of land and waiting for a boat. When we got on, there were lots of people and she had been swallowed up by the crowd. The boat left and we came to a garden part. There were lots of thorns and nettles and menacing looking plants but through all of that I could see roses. My stomach was bigger by this time and I kept walking. Soon I met one of my friends and she talked away quite happily but refused to look at my stomach, she didn't like it and it was all quite tense. Then we were in another boat this time with a nurse. The boat was like a dark gondola. The nurse was checking my stomach which was even bigger now and somehow I knew it was a little boy. She leaned down and put a stethoscope to the bump and listened. I had been complaining of difficulty breathing and feeling lightheaded. She looked up and told me that the baby had an irregular heartbeat. She told me to rest completely and not to move, not even to talk. She told me to go to a bed on the other side of the hospital (the Burton World was actually a hospital). To get there I had to get a boat. My friend had been next to me all the way during this but she was getting fainter and fainter and disappearing. When we got to the landing stage at the beds after taking the boat over she was like a ghost. There was a man at the landing stage and he was huge. And in my way. I asked him to move but he refused. I asked him again and the same thing happened. Then I snapped I started screaming at him to get out of my way because my baby would die if he didn't. Once I had done that, he disappeared. By this point so had my friend and my stomach was ready to pop. The place with the beds was very different from the rest of the hospital. It was light and calm and it was like a lagoon with very clear very blue water. The beds floated around them and when you lay in them, the mattress became almost level with the water. I found an empty one and lay down in it and curled up around my stomach, there was a happy chatty nurse swimming next to me and was just talking for the sake of talking. I curled up and hugged my baby, the skin that had been the bump was now just sort of clinging to him and I could feel his little heartbeat and his breathing. I felt odd..... Sort of happy, and sad, and alone, and very excited all at the same time and it's stayed with me ever since I woke up. What does this dream mean? Any help welcome :)I am definetly not pregnant =P more

Voting Question: Why would I dream about maggots in my bed?

Last night I dreamt that I was in bed with my ex-husband (we were just sleeping) and he said to me that he felt like something was crawling on him. I looked and he was covered in maggots. They were all in his arm and leg hair and falling from his hair on his head. I jumped out of bed and began feeling itchy and noticed that I had maggots all over me as well. We stripped the bed and under the covers were maggots. We then flipped the mattress off the box springs and there were just piles of crawling, large, gross, maggots... Then I woke up. What the heck. It was so gross and disturbing! I usually do not care about the meaning of dreams, but this is the second time in the past week I have dreamt of "bugs" in my bed. The first time it was spiders!! Anyone know what it could mean? more

Resolved Question: What do you think the story of "Princess and the Pea" is supposed to mean?

Well, Cinderella talks about how you follow your dreams and hard work pays, Snow White talks about the power of true love, the little mermaid tells you not to do something dumb for love, and sacrifice (by not stabbing the prince then jumping into the sea). Although these stories don't really tell good and meaningful morals, at least they sort of make sense. But what about "the princess and the pea"? Not being able to get a good night's sleep because of a little pea under all those mattresses? Or if it doesn't tell a moral, then what is it talking about? I mean, it's not a very interesting story, and if it doesn't tell a moral, then why is it so famous and what is it there for? more

Voting Question: Need criticism on my story? Thanks!?

Okay well a few things you need to no that, its copyrighted, and also i want you to answer these questions after you read it! :) but sorry about the grammar and spelling mistakes, im a fast writer! and also i will probably fix it up, and make it more better but what do you think of it now? okay these are the questions! 1.Was it boring? 2. would you read it, even though you don't no what the plot is? 3. how old do you think i am? (Don't look at my profile, its cheating). okay here is chapter 15. Enjoy! Somebody's snoring made me jump straight up. It was still complete darkness. It felt like my bladder was about to burst, I was busting to go to the toilet. I pulled off my covers and made my way to the bathroom. Something made me stop half way as I got in the basin. I heard somebody weeping in one of the toilet cubicles. “Hello?” I whispered. “Anyone there?” The crying stopped. I heard one of the doors creep open. I took a step back. I saw a little girl standing there, her eyes and nose where red like a cherry. She sniffled. “Yes?” her voice was frail and weak, it sounded familiar. Her long orange locks bounced up and down as she walked closer to me. “Philippa? Is that you?” She came closer too me. “Shh” She whispered, putting her finger over her red cherry lips. “You will wake her up!” She was acting really strange, her eyes where looking straight at me. Her hands dangled beside her waist. “Wake who up?” I asked. I took another step back. She stopped walking, and stood there, staring deeply into my eyes. Her legs started to wobble. Her whole body collapsed right infront of me. I bolted over to her. “Philippa?” I Whispered, shacking her body. “Wake up!” I saw red thick ooze flow out of her mouth and onto my clothes. My eyes filled up with water. “Philippa!” I cried. My voice was weak and shaky. “Philippa wake up!” her eyes rolled back into her head. I shook her body. “Philippa wake up!” I screamed. My hands where covered in blood. Her body started to shack uncontrollably. My mouth felt dry, my tears rolled down my face and onto Philippa's arm. How can a ghost die again? That's impossible! I looked up and saw another little girl standing there. She was covered in blood. Her blonde hair fell over her shoulders. “She deserved it!” She screamed. “She killed me!” Her voice echoed the bathroom. I looked down at Philippa. My hands where trembling as I rocked her back and fourth. I looked back up at the girl but she was gone, just disappeared in thin air. I jumped up. My palms where sweaty, and so was my face. I was in my own bed. I looked down at my hands, no blood. It was just a nightmare! I stared out into the darkness. I heard people moving about, trying to get comfy. I tried to catch my breath. Just a dream! Only a dream. I laid back down, staring up at the top bunk. I felt sticky and wet. I was busting to go to the toilet, but I didn't want to go in the bathroom. I was afraid my nightmare will come to life. I couldn't hold It in any more! I pulled off my covers and sat there on the mattress staring into the darkness. I have to do this! It was just a nightmare! I made my way over to The bathroom door. My palms where sweating. My eyes glued to the door knob that started back at me. I slowly reached out for it and pulled the door open. I stared down the corridor. I went up near the basin and turned the hot water on. I splashed it onto my cold trembling face, sending shivers down my spine. It was only a nightmare! None of it was real. I looked up into the mirror, seeing my face drenched in sweat. My eyes wondered from my face to a pale ghostly figure staring at me with it's sad worn eyes and a smirk of evil. Waiting for me to turn around so it could do something terrible. I jumped in horror and gasped. It was the little girl who killed Philippa in my dream! I let out a scream that echoed the bathroom. My body spun around, trembling. Nobody was there. It was just me and my imagination running wild. My heart pounded against my chest. I swear she was in the mirror staring back at me with her cold blue eyes! Who was she? Why is she doing this to me? It doesn't make any sense! I went back to my warm trundle. I just need some sleep, that's all. I slowly pulled the covers over my trembling body. I laid on my back staring up at the top of the base of the bunk bed. I tried to catch my breath. Who was she? Why is she in my dreams. I think she was trying to tell me something, something about Philippa. I kept tossing and turning all night. I couldn't get any sleep. I kept thinking about the little girl and my nightmare I had. I imagined her at the end of my bed. Watching me sleep. Singing me lullabies every night. Her blonde hair would fly with the cold wind. Her blue cold eyes would stare at me all night as I tossed and turned. I started to drifted off. My eyes got really heavy, every noise that was made got blocked out. I pictured the gigirl in my head. Her blood stains on her white baggy gown she had on made me get the goosebumps. She was pale like Philippa, her rosy cheeks stood out like her blood stains on her white gown. Okay what did you think? and dont forget to answer my qeustions! thank you so much for your time! have a nice one aye? :) more

Resolved Question: What do you think of the beginning of my story?

My eyes fluttered open and immediately I sat upright. Like in my dream I wished I would begin to see a lavish pink canopy and a maid dressed in a ridiculous uniform,fakely smiling at me,and asking what it was that I wanted for breakfast. I would reply with "Whatever." and roll over in the bed to get back to my rest. Unfortunately though,instead of the canopy, there were cracked ceilings to wake up too. As I got off the flimpsy mattress I slept on, I stepped on a brown bottle. It cracked under my weight. Cursing under my breath, I examined my foot to see if there was a cut. Before I got a chance to check though,the pain rippled through my foot. Blood oozed out of the broken flesh, I stepped over the glass to turn on the lamp on my nightstand. From what little light the lamp provided, I discovered many more bottles were taking up space. The one nearest me said Bud Light and recognized that they all did. Gosh,why didnt she do this in her own room,I thought to myself. The clutter she had created in my room was quite awful; my mom's dirty clothes from last night,a skimpy black halter top and a matching mini skirt. Beer stains were now in the carpet and on the once white walls. I rolled my eyes and wiped my forehead, although there wasnt any sweat. I made my way to the bathroom. In the hallways,my mom's drunken episode was evident here too. Ciagrette smoking hung faintly in the air and I was surprised I hadnt woken up to this during it all. But then again,I'd been too tired from work. Twisiting the knob to cut on the shower,I caught my reflection in the large mirror. If it were anyone else,they would have jumped back and screamed in horror. This was a usual sight for me though. My frame was was sort of built,with muscled arms. And if it werent for my long cinnamon colored hair, someone would easily mistaken me for a boy. I was tall like my dad and had bright emerald eyes like my mother. Well thats before she went crazy,and I have no idea why. The reason I stuck by her was because I had faith she would change. My dad had taught me to never give up. But I always wondered why he had given up on her. Puntaction and spelling and all that isnt correct so you dont have to comment. Im still working on the details and such. But do you like it? And I'm not quite sure where I'm taking this but I do now that the girl in the story doesnt have her dad around and her mom is into drinking and smoking and she is never there for her. She is a really troubled teen and she has a little sister. Thanks in advance xox God bless more

Resolved Question: Can anyone Rate my beginning to my story please?

Many hours have past since the night was young and the sun has started to rise yet again. John sat still staring out the bolted window in his cluttered room. The garden that had caught his eye was just outside his own dead, dull garden. Full of beautiful flowers and trees the garden stood high upon its throne in the small town. The very essence of the town’s life belonged to it. The garden looked very out of place compared to the ‘box standard’ garden’s that surrounded it. The house itself matched the garden’s elements. It towered upon the small town folk, with its pure white walls, and god like appearance. The dark damp stone work of the surrounding houses suffocated the one sanctuary in the town. The colorless, lifeless, emotionless buildings were lurking ever so closer to that beautiful garden. Yet they stand still, in jealously they wait. On the ground lay a messy a cobblestone street. The ground had been visibly worn out from the countless hammering of the horse’s hoofs and ignorant behavior. In the distance the sun rose over the town which was surround by a thick forest or green and red. The light from the sun reflected of the damp stonework, illuminating it and giving an effect that seemed as if the cobbles were engulfed in fire. Steam oozes out the nearby houses into the air creating a sort of smog effect, something you would expect to see in a much larger town not Hoverville. From behind John, as he day dreamed out his window, echoed a voice. It was his mother. He shook the dream away, walking from the window he had left steamed by his presence. As he neared the door he stopped, looking back on his room. It was far from a dream bedroom but it was the sort of room you’d expect to see around town. To most people it was just a load of junk, but to him it was wonderful. From the burst springy mattress, to the old broken grandfather clock, it all belonged to him, something he appreciated. Giving a sort of cheerful sigh he twisted the door knob and left his room. The hall was no change of scene from his clutter filled bedroom. Half broken pictures dangled from the walls struggling to stay upon the wall. John’s mum would often defend the broken pictures by saying “some people say they’re half broken, but I say they’re half fixed.” The carpet was a light shade of brown but John had suspected it wasn’t originally brown. There were three doors to his right, one was his mother’s room, one was his sister’s room and the other was the toilet. The toilet however, had ceased to work years ago. As he approached the stairs leading down into the kitchen more half broken, half fixed pictures lay plastered to the walls. Years of family history lay still on the walls, from his great grandmother Merareida, to his Cousin Bandafell. With each step down the splintered wooden stairs, came a loud creak, eleven loud creeks. more

It was like half my brain was still in my dream and the other half was awake. This just started happening like a month ago. Its happened at least 3 times. Soooooo what is this?!?!?!?! maybe i should just tie myself to my bed. more

Resolved Question: Can people please pass judgement on this first Paragraph of my story!!?

Many hours have past since the night was young and the sun has started to rise yet again. John sat still staring out the bolted window in his cluttered room. The garden that had caught his eye was just outside his house, full of beautiful flowers and trees. The very essence of life itself. But the garden looked out of place with the rest of the street. The dark damp stone work of the houses suffocated the rural town. The colourless, lifeless, emotionless buildings lurking ever so closer to that beautiful garden. Yet they stand still, in jealously they wait. On the ground lay a messy a cobblestone street. The ground had been visibly worn out from the countless hammering of the horses hoofs and careless behaviour. In the distance the sun rose over the town surround by a thick forest. The light from the town reflected of the damp stone, giving an effect that seemed as if the cobbles were actually covered in fire. Steam oozes out the nearby houses into the air creating a sort of smog effect, something you would expect to see in a much larger town not Hoverville. From behind John as he day dreamed at his window echoed a voice. It was his mother, presumably to let him know his breakfast was ready like she done every morning. He shook the dream away and walked away from the steamed up window. As he neared the door he stopped and looked back on his room. It wasn’t exactly the best bedroom and probably broke several safety rules but it was his. From the burst springy mattress, to the old broken grandfather clock, it all belonged to him, something he appreciated. He twisted the door knob and left his room. more

Resolved Question: i cut myself...im depressed.....i have no one to talk to...suicide?.....what do i do?

hello everyone....... i know its long, maybe you will read this and help me. id appreciate it iv grown up with a mother who has schizophrenia, anxiety, and depression. she is a drunk and used to do drugs, she married my dad when they were 20 and 21 had my sister and 2 years nine months later had me. everytime my mom gets upset she rampages, she rips at my hair, throws things crazily, gets drunk, gets angrier, and sometimes hits me. i went to school till i was in 2nd grade where they told my mother i should see a psychiatrist because i "reacted in an unusual behavior to things" and thought i had a mental illness, pretty much because i was terrified of everyone and flinched when they brought there hands toward me. and started crying and ran away if i ever got in trouble or anything. my mom didnt like that so she decided to homeschool me. but she never taught me anything i just did nothing, and everyonce in a while when she did teach me, if i got a singe thing wrong she would go crazy screaming and abusive behavior. i finaly got the guts up to convince my parents to let me go to highschool for my freshmen year which my dad thought would be amazing because he is normal and awesome, but my mom relucantly let me do it.......... i got average grade i think maybe below average, first semester 2.8 gpa second 2.3 gpa my dad was tremendously proud but my mom went crazy angry everytime i got something under an A my dad finally decided to divorce her after being terrified into behaving for her..... for 17 years. but while that cured his problems and he met a wonderful woman, it made my life 100x worse. i cant even explain...... so i used to have alot of friends but they all left because i started pushing them away, because they were always asking what was wrong when i was sad but i cant tell them, they woudnt understand....... so now all i have are 2 friends from school who are just like me but they do drugs and alcohol which i dont. i only get to see my wonderful dad 3 days a month and the rest of the time i am stuck with my mother. she hates me even tho she denies it i dont believe her because she always moves from house to house apartment to apartment, i have had 18 homes in my life, 10 of them this last 2 years. and we have been in the current place, a apartment since april in which all i have in my room is a mattress and a garbage can, that it. she gets over 2,000 dollars child support for ME 2 tims a month, yet she spends it all on herself. i took karate..tae kwon do for 2 years because i was so terrified of my mother hurting me. and while this story sounds kinda sad, you have no idea.... the pain, the feeling that nobody loves you, nobody can save you, your trapped, yur ugly, fat, depressing to be around, and what iv told you isnt even half the story.... she has thrown a water jug at my head so hard that i passed out and she didnt even care she just left me on the ground. i cut myself... nobody knows, its my secret obbsesion. i consider suicide every day but i dont for the hope that someday i can fly away from this horror once and for all and have a life of my own and heal from this maybe get a therapist. i have scars all over my body, i hide them from everybody, NOBODY knows, i cry myself to sleep everynight, and its just been getting so hard lately its overwhelming i feel like im going to shatter into a million peices and never get back together. i dont know what to do, maybe if i just kill myself now it would be so much easier, its not like anybody would miss me, or notice that i was gone. i just dont know what to do, the dream of escaping seemes to be dissapearing..... theres no way out... i dont know what to do.my sister was treated in the same way but she is diffrent then me, i act out in dramatic ways.....cutting depression ect. she doesnt act out she takes everything calmly, but i know it hurts her bcase she is insanly antisocial, shes 17 and hasnt had a single friend or even anyone to talk to not even online since she was 11, but at least she can almost escape, im still 14 so i got another 4 years of helll waiting for me..... i cant seek teh school guidance counselor, they send alerts to my parents anytime i do anything, trust me, iv askedthis is a real story, my father is very wealthy, he owns his own company, but with paying for himself, my mother and his girlfriend plus paying off major debt thaqt my mother caused its been really tough for him,im not POSITAVE about the amount for child supporr, i hjust know the check says 2,000 dollars, maybe that includes my sister, im not sure. the mattress isnt exact6ly bare, it has a mattress pad and sheets, and in the winter when its cold a sleeping bag.I cannot seek adult help! my father i barely ever see and when i do i pretend to be happy so that the time can be enjoyable but the time with him a ctually isnt enjoyable because the whole time im with him im just dreading leaving. im not close to any relatives, there distant people who live far away i barely know them, all my teachers are jerks, and i literally have no adult to help me. i dont want to call any police type thing on my mother becase im hoping that i can last throughout the next 4 years just long enuf then i can escape without any mess, because deep down in shes an ok person but her childhood was f-ed up so bad rape, father left, mother didnt care, running away and ever coming back at 16 y/o mother didnt care, that kinda shit. so she just takes it out on methankyou veryone for your feedback it means alot..... i cannot live with my dad...... so i gess goodluck to me for the next 4 years..... ill try to keep my eyes on the prize. thankyou more

Resolved Question: Recurring dream meaning?

Well, I've had this dream that have recurred in different forms, but are similar each time. So, there's this one where I'm at my school (which has three floors) and the top floor, in my dream, is an attic. The rooms are quite scary(in a haunted manner) but tonss of children (my age, actually) are up in the rooms playing in them-there are mattresses in the rooms? But these rooms look like a bedroom, not a school room. and this dream is different each time, but It picks up at the same spot each night; as if you were pausing a movie, and starting it again. more

Resolved Question: what can i do to get a urine smell and stain out of a mattress?

This a little embarrassing so :/ we ll Friday I had a dream I was at a friends house using their bathroom. I went in and I was peeing it seems like forever. I woke in the morning and I realized I peed on my self. I've cleaned up as much as possible, soak as much as I though was there sprayed some bissel oxy pet cleaner, cleaned that, put some baking soda on the area, vacuumed that and sprayed just a teeny bit of another cleaner and cleaned that. Its Sunday now and my bed still smells like pee!! What should I do now?the only good answers I got were the febreeze one and to take it outside so those are really the best answers, but I didn't use either one. I actually went to petsmart and got natures miracle urine destroyer and it worked perfectly. Thanks anyway. more
