I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to tell anyone the entire content of my dream, but at least I’m going to record it while it’s still fresh in my memory.
I’m not sure where I was, but I was there with some family friends, as well as 3 cats and a dog. It wasn’t the holiday season, but a very nice, somewhat large train set was set up inside the house, and everyone was in the living room right by the door to the pool, and the furniture inside the living room was all shades of deep tan and dark brown (and very plush and comfortable).
My dad wasn’t physically there, but everyone could hear him speaking clearly, and his voice sounded like it was outside the glass door to the pool area. All of a sudden, where there had been empty space before was a fully lit and decorated christmas tree. Someone made a comment about it being a sign, and from that point, we all could hear my dad’s voice, though he wasn’t physically present. (It sounded as though he was on the other side of the closed glass door, near the pool area.)
At one point, I turned around, and suddenly my grandma Mimi was there. She smiled at me, and told me she loves me and my family and is watching out for us. I grabbed her hand and held it, just relishing the contact. I rubbed her soft fingers, just to remember again how soft her hands always were.
After a beat, I turned back to the glass door, and when I looked again, grandma Mimi was gone, but in her place were 3 cats and a dog. The dog was really old and not doing well, and everyone else in the room was reminiscing about the dog in its younger days. I went so far as to take him from Alex’s arms and hold him for a few moments, petting and snuggling him. Sue talked about how he was reaching the end of his time.
I put the dog down, and then more people came into my dream: my family and another family friend. They too heard and interacted with dad’s voice.
We all chatted and even another deceased friend popped in for a second to say hi. However, I don’t remember much about the topics of conversation, other than what’s already been mentioned.
However, at the end of the dream, one of the cats laid down on the top of the back of a couch and mewled in such a way that it sounded like he was saying “Tiger is here.” The only think I can think of in regards to that is a cat my mom and uncle had as children.
The other weird thing about this dream is that I recall hearing a couple lines from the song ‘Where Do We Go From Here?’ over and over both in the dream and after it.
Understand we’ll go hand in hand
But we walk alone in fear,
Tell me, where do we go, from here?
