Splash…

by biscuitinabasket on July 29, 2009

I stood behind the big glass doors, in a house right on the beach. From the doorstep, to the close distance of the shore lay soft grains of beautiful golden sand, and into the horizon flowed the blue waves of the beautiful ocean.

I stood there, staring at the sea lost in my own world… I see it curling and growing in size from the corner of my eye. “It’s natural” I say to myself… It’ll break away. Moments later, I see it bigger…. a little bit closer. I still stand there, arms folded, watching the beauty of the water, still lost in my own thoughts.

As I blinked out of my thoughts, I see the monstrosity standing a few feet away from me; it looked like it was poised, but it was still moving. It’s sound so loud, ferocious, yet – calming in a strange way. I stood there staring at it grow as it approach me, gaining strength with every yard it moved ahead…. until it reached the edge of the shore…. where it stood tall… maybe a hundred feet tall…

It’s at that point that it’s crest tipped over, and this humongous wave came crashing down towards me… the glass doors behind which I stood it’s target; coming down with a force I have not known, and strength which took out everything else in its path.

Yet, I stood still… behind the glass which did not shatter… not in shock, neither in fear; I stood there with an eerie level of calm…. I don’t know why. I don’t know why I didn’t run, I don’t know why I wasn’t scared.

The wave hit the building and broke into millions of tiny droplets of water, sprinkling all around me.

It is at this point that my eyes opened suddenly, and I sat up in bed. It had been a dream… there was no wave. I reassured myself by looking on the floor to ensure there was no water around.

I saw ths dream early on Monday morning at about 3am, and couldt go back to sleep again. Ever since, this has been on my mind as I try and decipher what it meant. I don’t recall thinking about my dreams to a great degree, and I generally let them go very quickly, but this was different. This is making me ponder as to what it means.

Somehow… it is unsettling.

my dreams always have some meaning and i like to ponder over it while i can.

it is disturbing but nevertheless solves big issues which are about to hit!

a fore warning?

Assalaamu’Alaykum :) It does sound disturbing, but then dreams that are trying to tell you something usually are that way. Perhaps it means that some big decisions will be coming your way, and though they might overwhelm you, you’ll make it through them. After all, the wave dissolved into little droplets all around you, and you remained strong through it. Whatever it means, inshaAllah it will have a good ending.

Beautifully written description…it really did put me right in the scene.

That dream is pretty interesting. I loved how descriptive you were at telling it, I felt like I was there with you. I actually dreamed this week and I never remember mine, which is weird. It involved a crumbling shower, lots of water & a paint brush, no idea what to make of it..lol
