Dreams. Premonitions. Paranoia.

I had a weird dream. And the rest is history, they usually say.

It took me minutes to digest if I'm gonna write and publish this particular post. But I thought that this might be a good one, and by this note I could reflect more on the subject plus hearing what my close friends can say.

Just the usual lazy Saturday afternoon, I had my power nap before running errands and maximizing the day last weekend. Knowing that when I wake up, I would feel better and more energized that is. However, the opposite happened.

On my dream, I was sitting so healthy. Not the lacking pose, but a good relaxed sit. To death :| I was perfectly fine and on the dream I just had my pay. It was unclear though, if I'm on a bus or a cab but what I can remember is that I'm perfectly tucked in a seat. Safe and sound. Loud and sudden pound on my heart made my body felt cold. And on the dream, I had a conversation with God.

Me: Lord, eto na po ba talaga? (I was pertaining to my life's end)

God: Yes (A stiff fatherly voice)

I was never scared to die on my waking life, coz' for me when it's over, accept it that it's over. After all, God had granted you the gift of life and the chance to live it. It's a fair share. That's my perception. But I find it hard to believe that on my dream, I was even trying to win a bargain with God. 

I sited that I just had my pay and I'm planning to buy things for family and friends and myself. Christmas and New Year is coming, would I no longer spend it with them? Those bargain questions overflowing from a frail Pollie. But I lose the bargain. Coz' life's never a bargain at all.

On the dream, my right fist was clasped so tight. (I'm not sure what does that mean) But when I asked God one more time, if this is my end then I heard again the close ended YES. 

I raised my white flag of submission. And accepted the end of the story.

-It was really a weird dream. You know a dream so real? That you feel like it really happened. And that I was not feeling that I am dreaming on the picture. I'm not scared to die really but the dream just made me think and look back to realize of what I have right now and what should I be doing to seize the days and make every single day special. Of how grateful I should be. But I was left puzzled and thinking. But not worrying.

And this is not yet the end of the story. There's a dream my sister had yesterday morning. I won't go into details. But she's someone who dreams of things and happening, that next day you'd be able to see it in the news. Creepy I know, but a gift of seeing those things is undoubtedly disturbing for her.

It was in blur...
I was on my bus ride at around 5AM, when my phone rang. I answered the call and I heard a worried voice on the other line. My sister asked me, where I'm at. And I replied somewhere in Ayala. What bus are you riding at? she said. I replied AC Trans. I heard a broken reply from her. "Magingat ka Pops, Kakapanaginip ko lang. Banggaan ng AC Trans bus, yung mga taong sakay.....Blah Blah". And I was left shaken on my seat.

I reached the building safely, and Thank God for that. But all through out yesterday, I was lost and mystified. Up to the moment I punched out to go home and wait for another bus ride home. I had my rest at home. And now I was awaken....

Then a news just broke in from a phone call. A bus just shifted out and skidded sideways along EDSA, leaving it in it's coasted position. And the other details, I'm not sure about it. And I don't want to know it at the moment.

It's 2:22 on the clock, and few minutes from now, I'll be prepping up for work and take a bus ride for work. 

I just thought that this could serve as another nudge of realization for me and for us too. To seize the days we have. Beautiful nor ugly days. It's part of our life. Live it and treasure every single snap. 

May God continuously bless and guide us everyone! Take Care <3
