Some dreams are unforgettable...
It
was a stressful day at work. After falling on the bed like a dead bird, I never
realized when sleep caught me as I recalled my day loaded with work.
The
dream that night:
It’s a desert. I am sitting on my desk, the
same desk at office. I am typing something, my eyes on the computer & my
fingers rapidly running through the keyboard. Suddenly I feel strange and look
around. It’s all sand & huge mountains. The sky is dark yet there is light
where I am sitting. Leaving aside all the work, I push my rolling chair
backwards & stand up to figure out where I was & what was going on. I
look around & then walk towards my desk. The wires from the pc behind are
coming out of the ground like roots of a tree. The first funny thought I get
is, where is the electricity coming from? I looked around again & this time
with fearful eyes. Trying to spot a human around whom I can go up to, but the
place is alienated. I find no signs of life. Am I the only human left in the
world?
I
thought I’d close my eyes for a minute, relax & then things will get back
to normal. I do so. Nothing happens. It strikes me; maybe I can get to
communicate to someone the situation online through my pc. As I walk slowly
towards my desk trying to take in the situation I am in, think of ways to get
out of it. Taking a seat & a long deep breath I try login in on the
internet. It doesn't work. Is this a trick? What am I doing in a desert with my
office desk & no internet? There has
to be a way out. Next thing I know is, I am running, running all over the
place. I try to shout but there are no words coming out. And I realize the lack
of speech. I cannot talk, because I have no reason to, because there is nobody
to hear me.
A change is going to occur says my intuition.
The first thing I notice is the milky brown sand is gradually turning into
liquid, it melts. The huge mountains, they are flowing down, the way chocolate
flows down from a chocolate fountain. The sky is turning pink, purple, and
orange. The colors mix together and pour down. It was a sign. It was the end. I
am the last human. I get to see the world end. There’s a wide hole where I am
standing, right beneath my feet. I am floating in the air. The hole swallows
everything that passes through it, the sand, the mountains and the sky. It’s
all gone, it’s black. The kind of black my office keyboard is. Fear, is the
last feeling I experience before I get swallowed in too.
That
fear, woke me up. I felt relieved like never before. My phone beeped. After a
horrible dream, the message made me smile. It was a message from my boss. I was
promoted from being a junior to a senior.
