Dream
I was going to this dinner performance. I think it must have been at my son’s school or at Bethel Seminary. I was going alone. I did not have a lot of social interaction with anyone. I remember one person eagerly greeted me upon my arrival - it was someone I did not know, and the interest did not extend much beyond the greeting. I found a seat at a table. There were other people there, but we did not interact. I remember seeing some people get served as the servers made their rounds. I also remember the conclusion of the show. Perhaps I fell asleep, but I do not remember the show, or the meal. I can’t recall what I ate, or if I ate, or what happened on the stage that night. I only remember arriving and leaving, with little no know interaction.
Could this be my experience of life, or of my experience with the Church. I recall a feeling that nobody really cared that I was there. I also had the feeling that something happened - and I missed it. I showed up, and I waited - but it never happened. And no one cared.
