Strange Familiar Faces

Have you ever woke up to a dream so weird, it lingers in your mind for the rest of your morning?
Two nights ago, I had a vivid dream about zombies attack. It's not often I dream about monsters, zombies, possessed cars, dinosaurs...etc. but it is not surprising when I do.
Last night, I had another vivid dream. I was in the midst of a huge gathering of people I've known from all parts of my life. It was weird to see all of them together since they are so very different from each other. We were having very weird conversations with each other--conversations that had no relation to one another. It was a very disjointed gathering of people I know from different parts of my life.
Dreams. It's funny when they reveal things that seem like they're reality. I don't mind dreaming about zombies or sharks attacking, but it leaves a deep imprint in my mind when Elly, Douglas, Stephanie...Faces from my past show up among the faces I am now familiar to.

And then, it'll linger. With my curiosity aroused, I will begin asking "what if" questions all morning. Sometime during the day, I will be relieved by the fact that it WAS "just a dream" and my mind can finally return to my reality.

Here we go...
