Sometimes my dreams feel so real it is hard to tell if I was in fact dreaming.
Over the years I have come to realise that when I dream I have what is called visitations. It can happen when I am awake, but it tends to be when I am asleep and more relaxed. People who have died come close to me and interact with me.
In my dream I had opened the back door and in front of me was a man. He wasn’t standing but sat in the corner huddled up. He was wearing a black short coat and he had his hood up and pulled right over his eyes. He was not someone that I knew. I said hello to him and asked if he needed anything. He said that he was hungry and needed to get some food, I told him it was Sunday and that most places don’t open until 10am. I then asked him if he was from around here. He told me that he was not, but he liked to come and walk around this area. He didn’t say much and that was pretty much the end of the conversation. For weeks and weeks I kept thinking about it and wondered who he was. It finally dawned on me that he was a lost soul and was wandering around the earth plain. He didn’t ask for my help and he didn’t appear to be distraught or upset in anyway. Sometimes we are not ready to go and will stay earthbound and wander around the place we lived or familiar places. The fact that he came to see me was a good sign and that we had a chat and when he is ready he may come back to me, or perhaps find someone else to help him.
