This dream seemed to have two different time periods going on at the same time, one time period was modern times at and near my parents house, and the other time period seemed to be back in Ancient Rome in the countryside of Rome I assume
In the modern parts of the dream world I was helping my parents move some stuff to and / or from and / or near The G House from our yard / house during the day, and we went inside The G House and / or a fictional house near it.
*I accidentally published this post before it was ready, and so I will have to update it later*
I woke up and went back to sleep several times with dreams on my mind but I did not record them.
Dream 1
This dream took place during the day outside, and I remember maybe walking at a park.
What is it?
The 1998 German experimental thriller movie Run Lola Run (Lola Rennt).
What is it about?
This is how Rotten Tomatoes describes this movie:
Presenting his third feature after last year’s acclaimed Wintersleepers, Tom Tykwer cranks up the volume, stiffens the pace, and jettisons us on one of this year’s most exhilarating cinematic adventures.
A breathtaking race against the clock, Run Lola Run straps Tykwers’ playfully hip sensibilities to a fun-filled mix of romance, thrills, and action as his tireless heroine pounds the pavement and racks her brain to save her lover from danger.
Manni and Lola are twenty-something Berliners, way past cool and desperately in love.
When Manni, a local criminal’s errand boy, loses twenty thousand Marks, he has twenty minutes to find the money or face retaliation.
Not the brightest bulb, Manni turns to the quick-witted, resourceful Lola to devise a plan to save his hide.
And so she does, and off she sprints, running for Manni’s life, for her love, and to find money somewhere, somehow.
Dangling three “what if” variations on Lola’s mission to save her mate, Run Lola Run propels us toward each outcome with a delicious peppering of surprises, quirks, and twists.
A sure-fire hit with audiences, Run Lola Run brings to the screen two actors of immeasurable charisma: Franka Potente as the heroic, flame-haired Lola, and Moritz Bleibtreu as her doltish but devoted lover.
Scoring his delirious staccato mix of animation, still photographs, and live action to a pounding techno beat, Tykwer reveals himself a virtuoso of the medium and, at the same time, a passionate believer in destiny and the transcendent power of love.
Here is the German (Deutsch) description of this movie on Wikipedia:
Lola rennt ist ein deutscher Actionthriller des deutschen Regisseurs und Filmproduzenten Tom Tykwer aus dem Jahr 1998 mit Franka Potente und Moritz Bleibtreu in den Hauptrollen.
Der Film zeigt dreimal dieselbe Zeitspanne von zwanzig Minuten, jedes Mal mit kleinen Detailunterschieden, die die Handlung jeweils zu einem völlig anderen Ausgang führen (Schmetterlingseffekt in einer Form ähnlich einer Zeitschleife).
Today’s song is the song Dieses Leben by the German band Juli from their 2006 album Ein Neuer Tag:
Mir ist kalt, mein Weg ist leer
Diese Nacht ist grau und kalt und schwer
Sie hält mich fest
Und gibt mich nicht mehr her
Ich bin gefangen
Ich wach nich’ auf
Und die letzten Lichter geh’n bald aus
Ich seh’ mich fallen
Doch ich geb’ nicht aufDenn ich liebe dieses Leben
Ich liebe den Moment in dem man fällt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Und ich liebe diesen Tag
Und ich liebe diese Welt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Ich liebe den Moment in dem man fällt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Und ich liebe diesen Tag
Und ich liebe diese WeltIch liebe dieses Leben
Nimm mir die Kraft
Nimm mir das Herz
Nimm mir alle Hoffnung
Und all den Schmerz
Aus meiner Hand
Und gib sie nicht mehr her
Was soll das sein
Wo soll ich hin
Wo sind meine großen Helden hin
Auch wenn wir geh’n
Weiß ich nicht wohinIch liebe dieses Leben
Ich liebe den Moment in dem man fällt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Und ich liebe diesen Tag
Und ich liebe diese Welt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Ich liebe den Moment in dem man fällt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Und ich liebe diesen Tag
Und ich liebe diese WeltWeiß ich nich’ wohin auch wenn es geht
Weiß ich nich’ wohin auch wenn es geht
Weiß ich nich’ wohin auch wenn es geht
wenn es gehtDoch ich liebe dieses Leben
Ich liebe den Moment in dem man fällt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Und ich liebe diesen Tag
Und ich liebe diese Welt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Ich liebe den Moment in dem man fällt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Und ich liebe diesen Tag
Und ich liebe diese WeltWriter(s): Eva Briegel, Andreas Herde, Simon Triebel, Jonas Pfetzing
Lyrics Translation (By Google Translate)
I am cold, my way is empty
This night is gray and cold and heavy
She’s holding me
And no longer give me up
I’m trapped
I don’t wake up
And the last lights will go out soon
I see myself falling
But I’m not giving up
Because I love this life
I love the moment you fall
I love this life
And I love that day
And I love this world
I love this life
I love the moment you fall
I love this life
And I love that day
And I love this world
I love this life
Take my strength away
Take my heart
Take away all hope
And all the pain
From my hand
And don’t give it up anymore
What is that supposed to be
Where should I go
Where did my great heroes go?
Even if we go
I don’t know where
I love this life
I love the moment you fall
I love this life
And I love that day
And I love this world
I love this life
I love the moment you fall
I love this life
And I love that day
And I love this world
I don’t know where to go
I don’t know where to go
I don’t know where to go
if it’s possible
But I love this life
I love the moment you fall
I love this life
And I love that day
And I love this world
I love this life
I love the moment you fall
I love this life
And I love that day
And I love this world

Tonight my dad shared a dream with me that he had last night, my dad does not remember his dreams that often, and so this was a surprise.
I will type my dad’s dream below.
All that my dad remembers of his dream is that he was at Mrs. SH’s house taking care of her like he used to do sometimes when he used to work for her doing yard work and helping her with various other things that she needed help with because she was very old and she needed some assistant because of that and because of some health problems.
Mrs. SH was from Germany (German) and she probably left Germany after World War II, and at some point she married a soldier from another country; and many years later in her old age my dad ended up working for her as one of his side jobs.
Anyway, during my dad’s dream after he finished helping Mrs. SH, he drove back home and he called Mrs. SH’s sons to let them know that she was doing good.
During the telephone or mobile phone conversation my dad was able to see Mrs. SH’s sons, in his mind I assume, and when my dad told them that their mother was doing fine they looked confused and they replied: “Well, John, mom is dead…”.
My dad replied: “Yeah, that’s right! I must be going crazy.”.
And then my dad woke up in the real world.
My dad told that this dream seemed real when he was in it, he was doing some of the usual things that he used to do when working and helping at Mrs. SH’s house, back before she died several years ago.
The end,
