My "Dream" Wedding

Every so often, like last night, I have this recurring dream about my wedding. Keep in mind, even tho I've been proposed to on a few occasions, I've never been married. The dream is always the same & the only thing that changes are the children, who obviously grow up. I can even see Mama & Muda sitting on the front row, but now they have this almost angelic glow.

The dream always starts with me & my friends in the basement of my church getting dressed, hair, make-up, etc. There's a lot of laughter & even more tears.

We go thru the motions & when the time comes for me to make my grand entrance (on my son's arm), I recognize everyone on my (the bride's) side of the church, but no one on the groom's side. As I make my way down the aisle {fabulous as I wanna be}, one (1) of the bridesmaids is unfamiliar to me & all of the groomsmen are strangers. I make it to the altar & when I look up to gaze into my beloved's eyes, his face is pixelated!!! I've been having this same dream since I was 18/19 years old & my beloved's face has always been pixelated. To make matters worse, when the Rev. is about to say his name, I wake up!! It never fails.

I've been trying for the last 15+ years to figure this out & I can't. I did however, come to the conclusion that this dream might be a subconscious reminder that one day true love & happiness will come my way, I just don't know it yet.

  1. What a frustratingly fabulous dream. I have never had a dream like that before. But I do have a lot of dreams that later on happen... so then I am left to wonder if I subconsiously made them happen, or if our lives really are already all mapped out.

  2. ...and this was long before pixilating someone's face was cool. LOL!

  3. Wow it's funny how 2 (and maybe more) people can have the same exact dream over a period of time with just a slight difference in the details. I have had the same type of dream over the years but taking place in different locations. I too have been engaged a couple of times. Though I'm open to the prospect of marriage and all that jazz, I'm still a little skeptical and scared of it. My little flame of hope hasn't been extinguished yet, but from the lack of respect, minimal if any levels of commitment I see from the married folk around me and in daily observations, I'm like our dreams may be just that, a dream. But hey, you never know...

  4. Same here. In the dreams the person's face is always blurred or "pixelated" as Mo stated, then when it happens I'm like ohhhhh so that's who you were!...LOL

  8. I would try to help you "analyze" it, but I've done that in the past and it doesn't seem like many care nor put too much weight into it because I'm not a "professional". But I digress. *smile*

    But wouldn't it be nice one day if you dreamed this and the man was FINALLY revealed to you? WHEN this happens, PLEASE let us know!!!!!
