Dream 1

All that I can remember of this dream is that at the end of the dream some other people and I were going through recruit-like training of different types/levels, my former male classmate MJ was there, and I remember us going to an old (maybe ancient) dojo where we were going to learn some special techniques from an old martial arts system being taught by the martial arts instructors who still follow the old traditions.

I remember one of the instructors talking about some of the traditions and showing us small wooden structures and small pillows that you had to use a certain way before training and when someone gets injured, and he showed us a way to improve healing that seemed a bit too magical like it probably did not work.

I remember going to the bathroom to urinate, my former classmate MJ, and another man happened to be going to the bathroom at the same time; and I remember urinating first as we talked about how the healing thing seemed like something that probably did not work, and then we continued talking as I washed my hands but I woke up.

Dream 2

This was an interesting and detailed dream that even became semi-lucid or lucid at some point in the dream, but I can only remember a few parts of the dream; which took place in a modern and sometimes somewhat futuristic multi-story multi-purpose windowless building.

This building was like a college, hotel, resort, recreational, maybe medical building combined with: a hotel/dorm/apartment, college, restaurants, clubs, bars, casino, other types of entertainment areas, medical clinic/hospital, and more.

In one part of the dream it seemed that I was on an upper floor in a college part of the building like I was a college student again, I had a large hotel-like room with a television on the wall, and there were some other interesting design aspects to this room that I can not remember.

At some point I went to take a shower, the bathrooms were separate from our rooms, and so we had to go to public bathrooms to use the bathroom and take showers; and so I walked to one of these public bathrooms, which looked a bit futuristic, and it had automatic motion sensing lights to save electricity when no one was using the bathroom.

There was one or two other people using the bathroom and sinks, the shower area was in a separate room with a futuristic hatch-like door that was open, and so I entered the shower room and I closed the hatch-like door even though I was not sure if it was supposed to stay open or not.

There were separate shower areas that each had their own doors that could lock, I had locked the hatch-like door (which was probably a mistake because that meant that other people could not come in to use the other shower stalls), and so I did not lock the door to my shower stall.

The shower area was a bit futuristic and things were clean, I took a shower, dried off, got dressed, and then I took my stuff back to my room; and then I decided to start walking around exploring the building, and this is where I got to see many amazingly detailed and unique areas.

The dream was pretty realistic as I walked around reading signs outside of various areas that let you know what they were for, I heard music, talking, laughing, and people having a good time in various areas; and I walked into some of these areas, which were mostly entertainment and eating and drinking areas, but I probably walked by the medical area as well.

At some point in the dream the dream went semi-lucid where I probably knew or partly knew that I was dreaming, I did not try to control the dream at all, instead I continued to walk around exploring to see if anything changed; and to see all the many details that my mind had somehow put together.

To my surprise things were the same, signs were still readable and said the same things, different areas were still in their proper locations, people were still enjoying themselves and acting realistically, and the dream felt even more real now that I knew or partly knew that I was dreaming.

I was extra curious to see how dream character acted so I walked around slowly, sometimes stopping inside places, to watch and listen to people; and things were realistic like these were real people with real lives, and they all had different appearances and personalities and things to say to each other.

It was amazing how stable the dream was, it was so stable that it felt real and I even had some of my senses, it was like being somewhat in the future or in another dimension instead of a dream; like I was in a real place.

At some point after exploring, watching and listening to people, talking to some people, et cetera I went back to my hotel-like room to relax and watch some television; and to enjoy the unique design of the room, and I laid on a bed or sitting area near the wall and under the television.

I am not sure if I went to sleep or not but something strange happened where I was now seeing things like I was no longer in the dream, the actress Tilda Swinton was invited to this building by some people who wanted her to star in their film, and so they got her a room in the area where my room was.

They wanted to her to relax and have fun until it was time for their meeting, they hoped that she would say yes to being in their film, and at some point I think that Mrs. Swinton was in her room with someone else when the filmmakers and their security walked into her room for their meeting.

Mrs. Swinton was possibly not interested in being in their film after hearing the details so the filmmakers and their security threatened them, basically holding them hostage and threatening them until she agreed to be in the film, but I can not remember if she agreed or not before I woke up.

Being Silenced By A Non-Disclosure Agreement

Source: Wikimedia Commons

I had several dreams last night that I forgot because I did not voice record my dreams when I woke up to use the bathroom and then I went back to sleep, but I barely remember part of my last dream from last night.

The dream took place in a slightly fictional version of the city of D during a gray day late in the afternoon and I think that I worked at a private company who worked with the government or I worked for the government, either way the government was involved in some way, and at this job I saw something that I felt should be shared with the world but I can not remember what I saw but it must have been serious.

Almost everyone at my job was under surveillance and so the administrators / whoever saw the exact moment when I saw whatever it was that I saw, and they immediately called me to the office to talk to me; and I remember talking to a somewhat strange/creepy/whatever man with pale whitish colored skin with short medium-to-dark colored hair who wore a dark-colored suit who told me he saw/knew what I had seen, that they were watching me/all of us, and he reminded me that we all had signed non-disclosure agreements and so I could not tell anyone what I saw.

He warned/threatened/reminded me that I would be under even more surveillance now, even when not at work and they would probably be investigating me and keeping records on me, and that they would be making sure that I did not tell anyone what I saw; and if I did tell anyone there would be serious consequences, whatever it was they wanted to hide it was probably something illegal that the private company and the government was/were involved with, but I am not sure.

After work was finished I remember going to my grandfather’s house, I could not stop thinking about the situation and trying to decide what I should do and I felt a bit sad/depressed/negative/et cetera, and my uncle CE walked inside my grandfather’s house and he started talking to me as I was trying to think and when I was ready to leave; but I stayed to listen to him to avoid being/seeming rude but my uncle CE could clearly see that I was ready to leave, and he somewhat angrily told me that I could leave if I wanted to instead of pretending that I wanted to stay to listen to him.

I wanted to explain to him what I was thinking about but I could not because of the non-disclosure agreement and because I was probably being watched/listened to even inside my grandfather’s house, I tried to apologize but it did not work, and so I left to walk somewhere; and I remember walking across Eastside and past the shopping center where Dollar General is, and I still was trying to decide what to do.

I wanted to follow the non-disclosure agreement because I take that seriously and supposedly we all had to sign it before we got our jobs, but whatever I saw brought up some serious moral concerns probably that were so serious that I felt that the world should know what I saw; and so whatever I saw had to be very serious and to me the world had a right to know, but I did not want to break the law because I had supposedly signed the non-disclosure agreement and so I was trying to decide what was the truly right thing to do in a situation like this but I woke up.

A Mass Effect 3 Inspired Dream Trying To Save A Planet?

I slept pretty well last night and I forgot almost all of my dreams, but I barely remember part of one or two dreams.

I am not sure if these are two separate dreams or one dream, but I will assume that they are two separate dreams.

I think that the dreams were once again inspired by the video game Mass Effect 3, this time the inspiration was indirect instead of direct, and so the Mass Effect universe and characters probably were not involved in the dreams.

Dream 1

One of the dreams was pretty normal, it took place on a nice day in a fictional area / city, and I probably met several people in the dream; such as Grace Randolph, maybe some of my direct & indirect family members, and some of my former classmates like SS, DH, JC, et cetera.

But that is all that I can remember about this dream, unfortunately, but there was more to this dream & I know that it started nicely/peacefully; and either this dream changed rapidly after certain events took place and/or after certain information was discovered or the next dream started which might have taken place in the same dream world with some of the same people.

Dream 2

In this second dream or part of the dream a group of people and I were trying to save a planet I think, it could have been Earth (it definitely seemed like Earth), but it might have been another planet (or at least I think that it was a different planet for some unknown reason(s)).

This dream reminded me of Mass Effect 3 a bit but everything seemed normal/realistic, and my crew probably including Grace Randolph and the other people from the first dream or the first part of the dream.

I remember us going around different areas on the planet probably trying to stop whatever was threatening the planet and/or helping/saving people, but I can not remember what the threat was exactly; but it might have been a natural disaster-type situation being caused by a weapon set by someone or some group or some species or something like that, but I am not sure.

I am not sure if we were successful in stopping the main threat or not, but I know that we helped/saved some people; and I know that my crew was doing a pretty good job, but that is all that I can remember.

The Dirty (Corrupt) Politician

The night before last I barely remember part of one dream, which is unclear, but I remember being in a fictional city during the day driving my automobile; and I remember driving to a small building.

I think that one of my former classmates or someone had invited me, inside of the building there was a small group of people & the person who invited me was there, and the building was like a small public building for meetings & voting maybe, basically a small public building.

One or more of the people there were running for political office and the other people were some of their most trusted members of their staff, and they were having a meeting; and they were going to have a public event with free food & drink later.

Suddenly the doors burst open and a group of mafia-like men walked in with their leader, who was a politician who looked somewhat like Pat Riley, and he had come to once again threaten the other politician(s) & the staff, trying to get them to exit/leave the race/campaign.

He said that he had already warned them several times, his mafia-like men may have even used physical violence, and now his warning was more serious; he threatened to cause physical harm to them & their families, and if that did not work then maybe even murder.

They then left, and the group continued their meeting, now debating about what they should do; some of the staff wanted to quit to avoid more harm & possible deaths, but the person or persons running for political office did not want to quit.

I think that the person or persons really wanted to win the election so that they could try to make a positive difference for the people of the city, I guess that the politician who came with the mafia-like men, was the current holder of that political position; and he probably had that position for many years.

I feared for everyone’s safety but I thought that it was important for them to make their stand & not give up, for those who wanted to take that risk, and I decided to follow them to the public event that they were about to have somewhere outside in the city.

We drove to a public outdoor area in the city for the event, there was free food & drink for everyone who wanted to come, and various people from around the city came; regular people from the lower class & middle class came, and people were having a good time.

Some of the others and I who knew about the threats were on alert though, we feared an attack & for the safety of everyone, but we had no weapons or armor.

The event was going well, I remember talking with the person who invited me & listening to people talk about politics & other things, but then I woke up as I was about to leave the event briefly for some reason.

The end,
