Leaving Home for a World Unknown

​The story begins with him rowing a small boat to the shore of an unknown place. I am sitting in this boat while he rows. I feel cold and frightened. The boat comes to the shore and he jumps out and pulls the boat out of the water onto the shore. I stay in the boat and observe him as he looks around to get his bearings. He acts as if he is checking to make sure the air is safe, takes a breath, and determines things are safe. He then motions for me to come ashore.

I get out of the boat and follow him up a stark and barren hill. There is no vegetation. There are no other people. We find a cave for shelter and he says he will return and he leaves me in the cave.

He then brings my mother, son, and daughter to the cave. My sister and her two children are also brought. We are all tired, sad, scared.  He has brought us here because he believes will be safe.  None of us know this place. His only quest is to keep us safe so we can survive.

In the next scene we are on a beautiful and lovely sail boat. He is now guiding and directing his boat as I sit comfortably on the deck of the boat with the cool wind on my face. The day is lovely. The feeling I have is one of contentment. There is a shore ahead, along with a pier, and a place to tie up boats. The shore is colorful with bright reds, oranges, yellows, greens, and blues. It looks almost festive. There are lots of people walking along the streets and sidewalks wearing vibrant colors. They appear engaged, happy, smiling, talking, and laughing.

My sweetheart secures the lovely white sailboat to the pier and we jump off the boat onto the dock. It is clean and fresh. We wander around the docks meandering through the people and action of a lively shoreline. There is excitement in the air. We go up to the hill that is covered in vegetation, clean and beautiful walkways, and lovely homes. We walk on one of the balconies, looking out over the island that is filled with life. My sweetheart tells me he needs to go for a short time, but will return.

I am aware this is a new and improved place to live. Things have changed.  Improved. We will be alright.

This is a dream I had after I made the leap from the former prime radiant to this new timeline. This was a significant dream for me, and is one I often recall and reflect on when things have felt survivable. The dream comforts me and lets me know it will be OK.
