Dana Wasn’t Sure If She Was Dreaming Or Awake
This “dream” seems to begin the same way. I feel as though I’m floating in the ocean. Way high in the sky I see a dark cloud of smoke . . . Then I know I’m awake because I see the dark cloud of smoke floating up to the ceiling of my bedroom . . . And there were shadow figues moving very very fast — too fast for my eyes to follow.
I remember feeling so tired, it was hard for me to keep my eyes open and stay awake . . . I felt as though this dark cloud wanted me to fall asleep . . . But I had to fight it!! I tried to get up, but I was pinned down — I could move my arms and legs, but my body wouldn’t move . . . Something was sitting on my chest — that pressure felt like heartburn.
I continued to fight it, but I wasn’t feeling well at all. I just wanted to lay back and sleep. I heard this really loud bang and a shout that sounded like my grandmother, “GET UP NOW!”
Dana’s grandmother had died a few years ago. The bang she heard was her grandmother’s picture falling on her night table.
With a jolt, Dana felt herself forced back into her body . . . She saw fast moving shadows above her and a bright orb . . . It exploded into the shadows.
