i have been suffering from random stretches of insomnia for many years at this point and one thing that i have realised is that the wackiest dreams always conjure out of thin air after or near the ends of my insomnia spells, and would you know it last week was one such day where i had 2 dreams in successive nights and i felt like sharing…
i have a lot of fears and my fears then to take part in my dreams in a way makes them memorable not eggactly in a good way . one such theme in my dreams since childhood was the fear of falling from heights. i do have a fear of heights but it isn’t as acute as others that i know, i would say about above average amount of fear. yet during the dream sequences i nearly shit myself whever it remotely close to the concept of falling the 2 dreams last week weren’t any different.
lets start with the simpler one, a bright sunny day perfect for a round on the bicycle i was cycling around my neighbourhood only to get bored feeling something off i go to the garage and pick-out a bigger cycle, ride it around and still suffer the lack of excitement, again back to the garage pick another bigger cycle alas only to repeat the loop, to a point i was now on a cycle bigger that a mountain towering over the city lines, (dont ask me how it made sense it was a dream), but as i was enjoying this monster cycle, my lack of concentration caused the cycle to trip now i was in free fall on my way down the only thing i was thinking oddly was i didn’t get to ride a bigger cycle.
as i woke up i realised what i had to do lock my cycle.
the 2nd one is odd in the sense i was exercising, yes thats a odd scene anyways as i was i felt myself getting lighter which i totally bought as the exercise working, to my astonishment the exercise seemed to effective as i started to float, at first it was so much fun looking at the houses and the city growing smaller much the same as looking down from a plane but as soon as i hit the clouds boy oh boy i remembered planes know how to land and i dont, and at this peak of paranoia and altitude my dream controller felt its right time to negate my weightlessness and i stared terminal velocity decent.
unlike last dream i had a lot of time to myself in this fall and i wasted them to trying the same exercise routine in misjudged attempt to have same effect as last, flapping my arms to fly, trying to think of something clever as my last words…….and baam too late
i woke up regretting not having thought something clever, need to type it down or tattoo it in case of emergency now.

well now just have to wait for the next insomnia spell for a new installment into my weird dreams.
good night
