Dream
I keep having insanely realistic dreams with information that I could not have known before. They almost feel like alternate reality dreams, which I am unsure are real or not. This is one of many I have had lately that I will be logging: I was in my vehicle, which seemed to be a newer vehicle, parked in a parking lot space in front of a storefront building. The building had no name, and faces east. I was facing the forest to the north, but on the south side of the lot. There was a path ahead where bikes can go through the forest to the store. There are mountains and tall pines to my left (west) that I occasionally look at. I am in this vehicle in the driver's seat alone. I look at my phone, which pulls up a search bar. I don't know why, but my brain immediately thinks of a name I haven't heard of in years. Since this is a public app, I will only disclose the first name, Logan. I haven't thought of Logan since high school. We were in the same friend circle, and I didn't talk to him much. It was very minimal contact, as with anyone else in my friend group. But nonetheless, in the dream, I type his name in. Once I click 'send', his corporeal being gets thrown into my front passenger seat. He is confused and disorientated and wonders why and how he is here. Without looking at him, staring straight at the forest path, I shrug. I wanted to share the view with someone, but with someone that would be the minimal amount of awkward, which I do not share with him. Of course he is confused though, so I say, it's ok to just breathe and take in your surroundings. He's in a military uniform and is all dirty, assuming has been in the trenches all day. I remind him it's ok to breathe. I like watching the ducks cross the bike path. I don't know how I am graced with the ability to be able to bring people into this vehicle, or why I choose the names I do, but it's just how it is. He calms down a bit, stares at me, and of course probably recognizes me, but I do not even glance at him. I look straight ahead, but unsure why. No emotion on my face. We sit in silence while he catches his breath, and looks relieved a bit... I take one last deep breath, and wake up. -- Upon waking up, I did a bit of searching that per Facebook, he has joined the military very recently. I am unsure where I could have learned that information prior to this dream.
