SATURDAY THOUGHTS: DREAMS

I was invited to give remarks at some pastor's celebration. 

Before I was to speak, there was a solo on the program. 

The lady sang from her seat in the back of the room. 

She had on a veil and wedding dress. 

When she finished singing, different people in the room started saying, "It's your turn", and "Vanessa! Go on up". 

I didn't realize, as I was walking to the dais, that all of the adults in the room had left. 

When I looked up, there was a room full of children and teens. 

They were kind of heckling me--not maliciously, but I didn't feel like dealing with it. I didn't even try to make them stop. I just skipped the speech, left the dais and walked out of the door. 

I was walking through the building, and it looked a lot like my old school in some ways, except the ceilings were extremely high. 

When I finally found an exit door, it seemed like a loading dock. 

I was conscious of how well I was walking in my heels on the gravel ground. 

Behind me, Ving Rhames was on a cell phone, talking really loudly about some Chinese person who he thought was about to take over business in P.G. County. 

I kept walking, rounded a corner near a fence where I thought the car was, and realized I hadn't come out the same way I went in, so the car wasn't there. 

A group of people near a gas station offered to help me, and so I walked with them...

Then I woke up.
