I was in the elevator at work and I’m there with someone else, don’t know who. Then my coworker comes in the elevator and she’s upset. Looks like she’s been crying. Somehow I knew it was because she had to leave the job. I put my hand on her shoulder to comfort her and almost like telling her telepathically it’ll be ok. She looks to me and nods.
Recently, I’m constant thinking of leaving the job, that there has to be something more for me, something else I want to do. I’ve read of different possible meanings of dreams of comforting someone else but they don’t feel right for me. Can’t help but think that the coworker is that part of me that’s attached to the job and that I am comforting myself that everything will be ok. The “logical” part of me is saying you’re crazy…what will your family and friends think…you’ve worked so hard for this…And the “illogical” part of me says there’s more out there…you can have the life of dreams…who cares what everyone else thinks…it’ll be ok.
There are people out there that feel they can’t go after their dreams and live the life they want due to social obligations, expectation of others, fear of failure, financial situations, you name it… I know this because I was one of those people. Don’t get me wrong I still have these lingering feelings of doubt/fear and it is a process of moving away from these feelings and changing the way we think of ourselves and life’s possibilities. Where there’s a will, there’s a way, right? Even if life throws us curve balls, we must trust the process. The journey to our dreams may not happen they way we think it should. Guess that makes it interesting. Have faith, dreamers!
